Why dietitians choose Vitena
85% cheaper for teams
A 7-person clinic on Practice Better pays approximately $455/month (Team plan $155 + 5 additional practitioners at $50 each). The same team on Vitena pays ~€69/month (Solo €15 + 6 users at €9 each). That is an 85% cost difference — savings that grow with every team member you add.
Built for European practices
Practice Better is English-only with North American food databases. Vitena supports 7 languages natively — your client portal, email reminders, forms, and reports all appear in Spanish, Turkish, German, Dutch, Ukrainian, or Portuguese. Combined with European food databases (Spain, Netherlands, Germany, Turkey), Vitena is purpose-built for how European dietitians work.
Zero-friction client access
Practice Better requires clients to activate an account before they can access their portal. Vitena uses token-based access — one link, instant access to meal plans, progress tracking, shopping lists, and session history. No account creation, no app download, no "I forgot my password."
Built-in supplement catalog
Practice Better relies on third-party dispensary integrations (Fullscript, WholeScripts) for supplement recommendations. Vitena includes a self-contained supplement catalog — manage products with images, dosage, pricing, and affiliate links directly within the platform. No third-party accounts needed.
