Compare · Jump vs Cliniko

Loved by allied health. Built for GPs.

Cliniko is one of the best-run practice management tools in healthcare - transparent pricing, public uptime, free telehealth, low lock-in. It's built for allied health. Jump is an electronic health record built for private GP practices, where prescribing, results and coded records are the day's work. This page compares them honestly for a GP audience.

The short version

Cliniko runs an allied-health clinic honestly and well - flat pricing unchanged since 2011, a public status page, one-click data export. It doesn't claim to be a GP medical record, and that's the fork: prescribing and pathology live in connected apps, notes are templates rather than coded data, and there are no registers watching the record. Jump is that missing layer, built as the product: SNOMED-coded notes, native dm+d-checked prescribing, structured results, registers and recalls that run themselves.

Side by side

Like for like, category by category.

Cliniko's admin stack is documented and solid, so those rows are a yes for both. The clinical layer is where the products part ways - and where Cliniko's documented route is a connected app, the cell says so rather than scoring a cross.

Jump's column describes our product as it ships. Cliniko's reflects their public materials as of July 2026; "Not documented" means we could not find an equivalent there, not a claim it doesn't exist. Products change; if this table is out of date, tell us and we'll fix it.

An honest fork

Which one fits your practice?

CCliniko may fit if
You're an allied-health clinic - physio, osteo, podiatry - and template notes, scheduling and invoicing cover the clinical work.You want flat whole-practice pricing, a free trial, and free built-in telehealth, with no sales process.You value low lock-in: their open API, one-click exports and public status page are genuinely rare and worth crediting.
Jump fits if
You're a private GP practice: prescribing, lab results and coded records are the day's work, and they should live inside the record, not in connected apps.You want registers, recalls and care gaps maintaining themselves from the coding you already do.You send to NHS GPs over the NHS message exchange, and want billing native - Stripe, in-clinic terminals, Xero.

Switching

An honest word on moving from Cliniko.

Our one-click structured import is currently Semble-only, and we'd rather say that plainly than promise a migration wizard that doesn't exist. Cliniko transitions are scoped case-by-case with our team - helped by Cliniko's own well-documented exports.

scoped first

Your data, reviewed together

We look at what Cliniko's exports contain and agree what must arrive as structured records versus documents - before anything moves.

sandbox · sample patients

Practise before go-live

Your team works a sandbox with sample patients first, so day one in Jump isn't the first time anyone has used it.

day one · coded

Coded from the first patient

Every consultation, prescription and result from your first day in Jump is SNOMED-coded data - registers and prescribing checks work immediately.

Common questions

Questions, answered.

The questions practices weighing Cliniko against Jump ask most. If yours isn't here, ask us on a demo call.

What the record is. Cliniko is practice management built for allied health - schedule, template notes, invoices, free telehealth - and it does that with rare transparency on pricing and uptime. Jump is a clinical EHR for private GP practices: the record is SNOMED-coded, prescribing is native and checked against the NHS dm+d dictionary, results file as structured data, and registers and recalls maintain themselves. Cliniko doesn't market itself as a GP medical record; for a GP practice, that's the comparison.
