What Is Brevity?
Brevity is NDIS software best suited to small teams. It has been built specifically for Community Care Organisations and it includes in-platform NDIS price guides and integrations.
Their NDIS management software offers organisations, managers, and teams the necessary features to ensure compliance with NDIS regulations.
Founded in 2017, Sydney-based Brevity is not to be confused with the California-based technology firm of the same name. A private company, it forms part of the Evello group of Australian businesses. The Evello group was launched in 2004 with a focus on software, and in particular, customer relationship management software.

How Do They Compare?
Both ShiftCare and Brevity’s NDIS software boast an array of features to keep your disability service provider business running smoothly, from drag-and-drop rostering to bulk claims.
Brevity is an affordable and user-friendly option that’s been built with providers in mind. With both Apple and Android apps, you and your team will be able to use it on the go. While Brevity charges per client, ShiftCare charges per staff (user), which typically leads to a lower overall cost assuming you have more clients than staff members.
ShiftCare’s web and mobile apps, meanwhile, stand out for their wide range of NDIS-specific features, easy setup and collaborative approach to provider, client, and family involvement. The company has an excellent customer support team with a 98% satisfaction rating. You’ll also have access to a dedicated help section, online webinars and onboarding videos, as well as a dedicated account manager.
With ShiftCare you won’t be locked into a contract, and there’s no credit card required. Plus, we’ve got a secret tip for you: if you need more time to reach your decision, just ask for an extension on your free trial.
