Best for practice phones, texting and review requests
Weave combines VoIP phones, two-way texting, reminders, payments and review requests for practices. Plans start from $199 a month, and the price of each plan is given on request. Reviews are one product among many, and some features depend on your practice type.
Who Weave is for
- Fits if you run a dental, medical, optometry or vet practice that needs a phone system too
- Works for practices that want one vendor for phones, texts and reviews
Who Weave is not for
- Pricey if you only want reviews: plans start from $199 a month
- Watch out: each plan's price is given on request, so you won't see it up front
- Skip it if you want a reviews tool alone, since reviews are one product in a larger platform
- Watch out: some features depend on practice type, such as insurance verification for dental only

Keep Weave, or make your own?
Keep it
To replace Weave you would be making phone numbers and calls carried over the phone network. That is not a weekend's work, with an AI app builder or without one.
That makes this kind of software worth paying for, not this one in particular: 56 of the 63 other customer review tools grade higher. It costs $2,388 a year.
What you could make
- Review collection and appointment booking: an app builder makes these well.
What you could not
- Phone numbers and calls carried over the phone network.
- Newsletters sent to thousands of people that still reach the inbox.
- Fax numbers connected to the phone network.
- Texts from a business number, registered with the carriers.
- A real app for iOS and Android. Something home-made would be a web page.
What this rests on. Weave’s listing: what it does, where it runs, what it plugs into and what it costs. It is a judgement about the kind of software this is. We have not built a replacement for it, and making your own means looking after it too. How we decide, and every tool’s verdict.
