The Problem: You have a challenging case coming up and you know there's a product somewhere out there that you need. Where do you find it? Who can get it to you? Are there better options? What techniques do you use? Have your colleagues used it before? The Solution: OrthoAxis™ is the no cost answer to all of these questions. We were founded on the experience and frustrations of an upper extremity surgeon who was looking for the same answers. After spending 6 weeks researching and calling reps looking for a specific orthopaedic product, he was told the product had been discontinued. He knew there had to be a better way and realized that there was no single place to find all of the orthopaedic information he needed. OrthoAxis™ brings all of the players together in one place, so there is no more time wasted hunting down products, reps, and information. If you need information and we don't have it, we will find it! OrthoAxis™: Everything Orthopaedic in One, Easy Location. • Access help from colleagues. • Archive and share important cases through the forum. • Connect to the right rep/company and find surgical technique guides 24/7. • Research, compare, review, rate orthopaedic products/reps, and save contact information for online messaging. • Find links to news, journals, and orthopaedic society pages. • Find a job or register for a conference, on your time. What you need, when you need it! Join us at www.doortoaxis.com and create your free account today!

Verdict
The clearest difference is update cadence: CKD at every 5 months against OrthoAxis's every 14 months. On price, ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
