Brevity Care Software has been serving Australian community care providers since 2009 and is an NDIS Digital Partner. It offers flat pricing (~A$44.90/month from Capterra, Aug 2026) with strong MYOB integration and community care focus across NDIS, HCP, and CHSP. KareShift starts at A$49/month with a different feature set: eMAR for medication management, custom forms with conditional logic, Xero Payroll integration, and support for AU, NZ, UK, and CA. Both are flat-rate — the choice depends on which features matter most for your service model.

Brevity is a registered NDIS Digital Partner with the NDIA. If your organisation or auditors require NDIS Digital Partner status, Brevity has this credential today. KareShift has applied but is not yet approved.
Brevity integrates with MYOB. If your accounting workflows are built around MYOB and switching to Xero isn't an option, Brevity's integration is a genuine advantage.
Brevity has dedicated modules for Home Care Packages and CHSP reporting. If your primary service model is HCP or CHSP (not NDIS), Brevity's purpose-built modules may suit better than KareShift's broader approach.
At similar price points, the choice comes down to features. KareShift includes eMAR (medication management), custom forms with conditional logic, Xero Payroll integration, and multi-country payroll export — none of which are publicly documented for Brevity as of Aug 2026. Brevity's strengths are NDIS Digital Partner status, MYOB integration, and dedicated HCP/CHSP modules.
KareShift accepts CSV imports for workers, participants, and schedules. Export your data from Brevity, upload to KareShift's import tool, and preview every row before saving. The 90-day trial gives you time to run both systems in parallel during transition.
KareShift supports NDIS providers and aged care facilities (residential, home care). It doesn't have separate, dedicated HCP or CHSP modules like Brevity. If your primary service is HCP or CHSP with specific reporting requirements for those programs, check whether KareShift's aged care and home care features cover your needs during the 90-day trial.
Yes. Full features, 5 workers, no credit card required. If you don't subscribe after 90 days, your account is simply paused — no surprise charges, no data deletion.
