Where Kinnwell stands out
Same modern UX, broader coverage.
August Health is excellent at the clinical core (EHR + eMAR + Care Track). Kinnwell matches the modern interface and adds full CRM, family portal, and maintenance management — so a community doesn't need to stitch together three vendors.
Sales pipeline, not just move-ins.
August Health's Move-Ins module handles digital onboarding. Kinnwell's CRM covers the full pipeline from cold lead to tour to deposit to move-in, so your sales team and your clinical team work in the same platform.
Family portal and maintenance included.
Kinnwell's Family Connect portal and maintenance/work order modules are part of the platform. August Health's published module list does not include either, so communities typically pair August Health with separate vendors for both.
When Kinnwell is the better fit
- You want to consolidate vendors. Kinnwell includes CRM, billing, family portal, and maintenance alongside the clinical core; August Health's published module list does not.
- You need a full sales pipeline (leads → tours → deposits → move-ins), not just a digital onboarding workflow.
- You're price-sensitive. Paying for August Health's clinical core plus separate CRM, family-portal, and maintenance vendors usually exceeds Kinnwell's all-in pricing.
- You want one implementation, one login, and one support team across every module your staff touches.
