### "Easy Cloud X-Ray Access, Great Support, and Seamless Integrations"

November 9, 2026

5.0

With SOTA Cloud, I can easily see images between sites and never have issues accessing our X-rays.

Pros

I can easily see images between sites, and accessing our X-rays has been a smooth experience with no issues. I really enjoyed the support we had while getting set up; when there’s an issue, the team answers right away and helps on the spot. I also really enjoy the SOTA Smart Sensors. They’re a more affordable way to take X-rays and have been a great addition to our setup. SOTA Cloud integrates really well with Carestack and Overjet for X-ray overlays, which I really appreciate. The initial setup was very easy.

### "Great platform with quite a few onboarding issues"

June 25, 2026

3.0

The onboarding was very bad and they don't even take responsibility for their errors. It took us almost to cancel the contract and go back to the previous service for them to actually do something. Other than that, the service is great, support is quick to get into action when needed (although some of the techs aren't really good at what they do) and the software is pretty nice.

Pros

The platform is very good, one of the best we have experienced on the market. It is simple to use, image quality is great, and the connectivity is superb. Data conversion from our past service was decent.

Cons

The onboarding was terrible. They didn't prepare our computers properly, leading to a lot of stress. Their tech didn't know which drivers to use, and the first day with them was total chaos. We are still having some minor issues a month later.

### "A Pleasant and Forward-Thinking Experience with SOTA Cloud"

April 29, 2026

5.0

Overall, our experience with SOTA Cloud has been very pleasant. The platform continues to evolve in a thoughtful and forward-looking way, with noticeable improvements that support both efficiency and clinical confidence. It feels modern, reliable, and aligned with the needs of a fast-paced practice. As new features and partnerships are introduced, it’s clear there’s a strong commitment to innovation and user experience, which makes working within the system both smooth and enjoyable.

Pros

What we appreciate most about SOTA Cloud right now is the clear evolution toward a more advanced, intelligent platform that truly supports modern clinical workflows. The addition of the CBCT feature is a major highlight, as it allows for more streamlined imaging integration and enhances our ability to review and interpret cases efficiently within one ecosystem. It’s a meaningful step toward improving both diagnostic precision and overall workflow continuity. We’re also very pleased with their partnership with Overjet. Aligning with an AI company that we already trust and prefer to work with adds a strong layer of confidence and forward-thinking capability. This collaboration signals a commitment to innovation and smarter clinical support, which is incredibly valuable as dentistry continues to evolve.

Cons

One area that could be improved in SOTA Cloud is the navigation experience, particularly when moving between exams. While the platform has made strong strides in functionality and innovation, the navigation bar can feel less intuitive and fluid compared to systems like Apteryx. A more streamlined, responsive interface for quickly switching between exams would significantly enhance efficiency during busy clinical workflows. Improving this aspect would reduce friction for providers and team members who need to review multiple records in real time. With the rest of the platform evolving so well, refining the navigation experience would bring it to the same high standard and create a more seamless, user-friendly environment overall.

5.0

Amazing straight out of the gate. The sales person was so patient and so helpful. Our implementation specialist, \[sensitive content hidden\] , was phenomenal. So easy to get a hold of. She was so organized. Just amazing.

Pros

Everything! Transition over to SOTA was smooth. Support throughout the entire process was great. And we love the product.

Cons

Bummed they couldn't convert data from AEKA imaging software. Not the end of the world. And they were very upfront about that. So it was expected.

### "I can finally access my images easily!"

February 23, 2026

5.0

Support has been very good. The onboarding process could have been very difficult but they made it easy.

Pros

It works well. I have been able to easily take photos, images from sensors, and images from my CBCT and viewing them from anywhere works great.

Cons

I don't love the way the interface looks. I'm not a designer so I don't know how to describe it any better than that.

### "We use the software daily and it works very well with our Claris intraoral cameras"

May 2, 2018

5.0

This software allows me to capture images from my claris camera and works wonderful.

Pros

It makes it easy for my entire staff to use the intraoral cameras and save images once taken. We use the cameras every day at multiple office locations and we never have a problem. As a matter of fact, I can't think of an easier way for us to capture images than with the Sota software. Capterra is the best!

Cons

None, it works great!

### "Still working to obtain quality imaging"

October 18, 2023

3.0

So far SOTA is overall easy to use and will be a great product if we can obtain quality imaging.

Pros

Wonderful support, just wish they would come on site for support since there seems to be a barrier while remoting in.

Cons

When uploading images from other practices show date of imaging at a glance. You can change the date but isn't visible unless you select "modify exam" and "set date."

Simple and quick. Providers and staff like it. Worked with existing sensors and clinical software.

Pros

Simplicity and ease of use for clinical staff. Ability to send links to X-rays eliminating the need to email or burn disks or use flash drives.

Not much. It did take a while to transfer X-rays to the cloud from our legacy system.

### "Switching to cloud based imaging SOTA"

October 28, 2024

5.0

Overall, great experience with SOTA compared to other Cloud imaging systems. Great process and you can't beat the quality of images.

Pros

Great onboarding process, everything was made simple and they explain the process in great detail laying everything out step-by-step.

Cons

The only con I've experienced so far is the wait time with technical support via the phone. There has been a few times I've called for urgent support and I get led to the voicemail.

Overall very good. Image quality is great. It links into our pms seamlessly and everyone on my team has learned to use its features quickly.

Pros

SOTA cloud is very easy to use and intuitive in its design. My team has all learned to use its features quickly and the transition was seemless.

Cons

The conversion of images from our old software took a bit of time and there was some confusion.

### "I really like it. Does it's job well."

May 28, 2018

4.0

Pros

The software integrates well with my existing practice software. It is very simple to learn and use daily with most patients. All of my staff were able to quickly learn the functions available and use on a daily basis. The image quality and comparable, if not better, than other major brands I have previously used for the past twelve years of dental career. I find that the initial investment was well worth it and hope to get many additional years of quality use and function out of this software.

Cons

What do I least like about this software? Well, considering all the other competition on the market, the cost is fairly high comparable to major other name brands on the market. Not that the software is not worth the investment, I really like and appreciate the software. However, like most other products on the market, the cost can always be a factor .

Pros

Clear images that are easy to read and manipulate. Automatic function to find patients and quickly access them.

Cons

It does not aggregate images of teeth. The import of other digital xrays cannot be altered to fit dates.

Response from Sota Imaging

May 31, 2018

Hello Dr. Kim, The date on the exam will always reflect the date that the images were imported, however, individual images within that exam can be modified with the date the image was acquired using the blue set date button located on the left side of the modify exam screen. As long as tooth numbers have been assigned to your images, the history button can be used to view and compare images side by side.

### "The best software"

April 30, 2018

5.0

We went from developing x-rays to this software several years back and I have never needed or had the desire to look at other companies.

Pros

I selected this software several years ago due to the friendliness and touch screen capability. Anytime I call into customer service my call is answered in by a live person and issues are resovlved or they work directly with my IT company

Cons

It has nothing to do with Sota Imaging's software, its my server that creates a slower loading period.

Easy to use x-ray imaging software.

Pros

The software is relatively easy to use, and the user interface is attractive. I have not had any issues with customer support either.
