Pay for one connected workflow.

Moonshot can cost more than a standalone EHR. Compare the complete operation: software, extra users, and the staff time spent keeping separate systems in sync.

Moonshot built-in CRM showing lead stages, sources, and assigned staff

What a separate stack can add

External CRM: $117/month equivalent
Example: three Pipedrive Growth seats at US$39 per seat per month, billed annually ($1,404/year).
Manual inventory administration: $390/month
Illustrative workload: 3 hours/week × $30/hour fully loaded staff cost × 52 weeks ÷ 12 months. Think duplicate dispensing entries, matching lot records, and reconciling spreadsheets.

$507/month beyond your EHR

An example, not measured savings or a quote for the competitor. Count only tools you need and work you actually do. Physical counts and clinical review remain necessary; software does not eliminate every inventory hour.

The Moonshot Medical alternative

$1,000/month per location
One prescriber and unlimited staff included. Additional prescribers are $200/month each.
Lead follow-up through ongoing care
CRM, scheduling, clinical charting, medication inventory, and membership billing in the same platform. Fewer separate records for your team to maintain.
Compare the work you can remove
If your existing tools already cover the workflow, do not add them again. If they do not, include subscriptions, integration upkeep, and avoidable duplicate entry in your comparison.

No platform transaction fee; processor fees are separate. Optional hands-on migration starts at $1,000, depending on scope.

Why Prescribing Clinics Choose Moonshot

No setup fee, no per-user creep

Cerbo charges a $1,195 setup fee, $281/month per full-time prescribing provider, and $63/user/month for staff. Moonshot is $1,000/month per location with the first prescriber included, $200 for each additional prescriber, and every staff user is free.

Prescribing happens inside the chart

Both platforms e-prescribe, including controlled substances. On Moonshot, prescribing happens inside the chart with one login, and EPCS for Schedules II–V is included on every plan via ScriptSure, a Surescripts-certified EPCS application.

DEA controlled-substance inventory

Cerbo advertises inventory for product and supplement sales, not DEA controlled-substance inventory tracking. If you dispense testosterone in-house, Moonshot tracks every vial at the mg level, lot by lot, from receipt to dispense.

When Cerbo Is the Better Fit

Cerbo is a reasonable choice for functional medicine practices that don't dispense controlled substances, don't need a built-in CRM or DEA controlled-substance inventory tracking, and want a long-established vendor. If your clinic never touches a vial and doesn't prescribe Schedule III hormones, Cerbo's per-provider pricing may work for you.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I migrate from Cerbo to Moonshot EHR?
Yes. Moonshot staff run an API migration from Cerbo that brings over patients, providers, history, notes, documents, meds, allergies, and labs, and a self-serve CSV import covers patients, meds, allergies, problems, and notes. Timing depends on scope, data cleanup, and validation, so confirm the import scope and timeline with our team before planning your switch.
Is Moonshot EHR cheaper than Cerbo?
On raw subscription price, Cerbo is often cheaper for prescriber-heavy practices: $281/prescriber/month vs Moonshot's $1,000/month flat plus $200 per additional prescriber. The comparison changes when you count Cerbo's per-staff fees ($63/user/month vs unlimited free staff on Moonshot), the $1,195 setup fee, and the separate CRM, inventory, forms, and texting subscriptions Moonshot replaces. Run your own numbers with your headcount (per vendor materials as of October 2026).
Does Cerbo have two-way texting?
Not on Cerbo’s own pages. Cerbo’s pricing page describes text appointment reminders, and two-way patient texting comes from third-party services such as Curogram, which advertises a Cerbo integration. Cerbo does include outgoing fax, with incoming e-fax as a $27/month add-on. Moonshot EHR has two-way texting built in: patients text one shared clinic number and replies land in the Communications inbox (per vendor pages as of October 18, 2026).
Does Cerbo have controlled-substance inventory tracking?
Cerbo advertises product and supplement inventory, not DEA controlled-substance inventory tracking. Moonshot EHR tracks controlled substances at the mg level with lot numbers, FEFO dispensing, and immutable audit logs (per vendor materials as of October 2026).
