Is Pabau clinically capable?

It's more clinical than most clinic software: their materials document treatment notes, SNOMED coding for problem lists, e-prescribing through partner pharmacies, drug-warning checks, and TDL lab results. What we could not find in their public materials is the deeper GP layer: the NHS dm+d medication dictionary, self-maintaining clinical registers with care gaps, or electronic sending to NHS GPs over the NHS message exchange. That layer is the reason a GP practice would pick Jump.

Do both prescribe through partner pharmacies?

Yes, and they even share partners - CloudRx and SignatureRx work with both products. The difference is what happens before the script leaves: Jump checks prescriptions against the NHS dm+d dictionary with hard safety alerts that block issuing, and tracks dispensing status back from four partner pharmacies into the record.

Can you migrate us off Pabau?

Honestly: our one-click structured import is currently Semble-only. Pabau transitions are scoped case-by-case with our team - we review your data together, agree what must arrive as structured records, and plan a safe go-live with a sandbox for your team first. If a wizard-grade Pabau import ships, this page will say so; until then we won't claim it.

Is this comparison fair to Pabau?

We try to be. Every capability their public materials document gets a yes in the table, the marketing row goes their way, and there's a section above on where Pabau genuinely fits better. "Not documented" means we could not find it in their public materials at the date shown - not a claim it doesn't exist. If anything here is out of date, tell us and we'll correct it.

Compare · Jump vs Pabau

Aesthetics-grade admin, or a GP-grade record.

Pabau is a genuinely capable all-in-one for clinics and medspas - booking, deposits, marketing, photos, payments. Jump is an electronic health record built for private GP practices, where the clinical record is the product: coded notes, checked prescriptions, registers that maintain themselves. This page compares them honestly for a GP audience.

The short version

Pabau is a strong product with an aesthetics heritage: if your clinic lives on marketing campaigns, packages and before-and-after photos, it deserves its shortlist place. Jump is built the other way up - the SNOMED-coded record, dm+d-checked prescribing, registers and recalls come first, and the practice management is built around them. For a private GP practice, that ordering is the difference that matters.

Jump's column describes our product as it ships. Pabau'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.

PbPabau may fit if

Your clinic is aesthetics- or medspa-led and lives on marketing: campaigns, loyalty, lead capture, packages and memberships are the machinery of the business.Before-and-after photography, deposits and no-show control matter more to you than coded clinical data.You're a multi-location group that wants one system covering inventory, commissions and team management too.

Jump fits if

You're a private GP practice and the clinical record is the point: whole-record SNOMED coding, dm+d-checked prescribing, results filed as structured data.You want registers, recalls and follow-up maintaining themselves from the coding you already do.You send to NHS GPs over the NHS message exchange and want public per-user pricing rather than a demo-gated quote.

Common questions

Questions, answered.

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

Centre of gravity. Pabau grew up in aesthetics and medspa, and its best work is there: marketing campaigns, loyalty, before-and-after photos, packages and memberships, deposits that cut no-shows. Jump grew up in private general practice: the whole record is SNOMED-coded, prescribing is checked against the NHS dm+d dictionary with hard alerts that block issuing, registers and recalls maintain themselves from the coding, and letters reach a patient's NHS GP over the NHS message exchange. If your clinic is aesthetics-led, Pabau's strengths may matter more; if it's a GP practice, Jump's do.
