Medirota allows you to view your department's rota, manage your leave, process extra claims, respond to offers for additional work, create exception reports and more - all from within a convenient app that can be accessed while on the go. The app provides an always-up-to-date view of both your own roster and leave, as well giving you easy access to view colleagueβs rosters and how best to contact them if needed. Other built-in messaging allows you to message rota coordinators directly from within the app, or to receive notifications about changes to your rota, updates on leave, or offers for additional work. An easy-to-use calendar subscription feature also allows you to directly import events from Medirota onto a personal calendar, or to share with friends, family or colleagues via a simple link. A variety of departmental or organisational processes can be handled from within the app, including managing extra claims for additional work delivered on your rota - from initial assignment through to payment. For resident doctors, you can also create new Exception reports, as well as displaying any reports that you have already created. Medirota is used across the NHS and beyond as a trusted single source of truth for roster and leave management, and has been designed specifically with the needs of medical and dental staff in mind.

Verdict
The clearest difference is update cadence: Pharmlogic at every 3 weeks against Medirota's every 3 months. Pharmlogic also leads on iOS requirement (16.0 vs 18.0). On price, ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
