OneBookPlus vs Cliniko:
the all-in-one Cliniko alternative

They overlap on the appointment and split either side of it. OneBookPlus offers online booking, client management, automated reminders, and invoicing, the core features health practitioners use Cliniko for. It also includes accounting, P&L reports, BAS summaries, email marketing, and Google review requests that Cliniko doesn't offer, and OneBookPlus has a free plan where Cliniko has a 30-day trial and then a paid subscription. Cliniko goes deeper on the clinical record: structured note templates, body charts, and Medicare and health-fund claiming integrations that OneBookPlus does not ship. If your practice is documentation-heavy, weigh that first.

They are priced on different axes, so compare them on what you'd actually run. Cliniko charges a subscription per practitioner band, and it bills in United States dollars, so an Australian practice also wears the exchange rate; the entry price for a solo practitioner is in the comparison table above, and Cliniko's own pricing page is the source of truth. OneBookPlus is billed in Australian dollars: Free ($0/month, 10 invoices and 5 quotes a month, 250 contacts), then $29 Starter, $49 Plus, and $69 Growth. The other half of the comparison is what each price covers. Cliniko buys you practice management. OneBookPlus bundles bookings, invoicing, accounting, BAS summaries, marketing, and review requests, but does not ship Cliniko's structured clinical templates or Medicare and health-fund claiming.

Largely, yes. OneBookPlus includes an online booking page where clients can view your availability and book appointments. You also get automated appointment reminders, a calendar subscription link that Apple, Google and Outlook pick up (two-way Google sync is built but not yet open to customers), and the ability to manage your schedule from your phone. Cliniko adds clinical-specific tooling around the appointment, such as SOAP note templates, that OneBookPlus doesn't ship, so the right question is whether you need the clinical record or the business layer around the booking.

Yes, and it's the clearest difference between the two. OneBookPlus includes full accounting with profit and loss reports, expense tracking, GST calculation, and ATO-ready BAS summaries. Cliniko has no accounting module, so practices running it usually pay for separate accounting software such as Xero or MYOB alongside it. OneBookPlus keeps the books in the same subscription as the bookings, so there's no second tool to reconcile at quarter-end.

OneBookPlus includes several features Cliniko doesn't: full accounting and P&L reports, BAS/ATO tax summaries, expense tracking, email marketing campaigns, Google review requests, and quoting with one-click accept. OneBookPlus also has a free plan, where Cliniko offers a 30-day trial and then a paid subscription. It's a business platform rather than practice management software, which cuts both ways: Cliniko's clinical depth is the thing OneBookPlus doesn't match.

A BAS (Business Activity Statement) is the form Australian businesses lodge with the ATO to report and pay GST, PAYG instalments, and other tax obligations, usually quarterly. For a health practice, every taxable supply (such as cosmetic or non-rebatable services) needs its 10% GST tracked so your quarterly BAS is accurate. OneBookPlus calculates GST on each invoice and rolls it into an ATO-ready BAS summary automatically; Cliniko has no BAS or accounting features, so practices using Cliniko typically pay for separate software like Xero to handle it.
