### "Carestack Review"

November 7, 2024

5.0

We had a great experience with Carestack. \[sensitive content hidden\] and \[sensitive content hidden\] were great to work with and so knowledgable.

Pros

We love how almost everything is one click away! It makes going through the patients chart so much easier!

Cons

We don't like how the online forms don't automatially input the information into the patients chart.

### "Best decision I made"

September 9, 2024

5.0

it was kind, personal, dedicated care by teams that got to know me, my clinic and my staff personally. They are responsive, precise, and highly professional.

Pros

it is extermely user friendly, ability to integrate with multiple programs to simplify work, communications, billing, anesthesia monitoring and radiology.

Cons

initially there were few photos that are generic and attached to treatment plans that were not as accurate, these were removed when requested.

offers much better functionality, integration, and much better customer service. I used all other software and they fell very short compared to the dedication of the care stack team and functionality and integration of the software itself.

September 11, 2024

4.0

My overall experience with Carestack has been positive. At first, it was intimidating and difficult to navigate, as with any new software. As I started to get more training and familiar, I really started to appreciate the intelligence of Carestack.

Pros

What I like most about Carestack is the detailed reporting we are able to run.

Cons

What I like least about Carestack is the complexity of payment applications, applying discounts and merchant fees.

### "Much Needed and Appreciated Support"

August 30, 2024

5.0

I’m so happy to have chosen Carestack. Taking the leap into ownership has been very nerve wracking, and choosing to use practice management / EHR software I wasn’t familiar with was even crazier. Every step of the way, there have been people so willing to help and so eager to help me succeed. They don’t leave you out to dry after you’ve signed the contract. The software has been great thus far and I really feel that I made the right choice in partnering w Carestack.

Pros

Amazing support, very customizable, convenient

Cons

Not optimized for mobile use despite being cloud based

I wasn't the biggest fan at first, but after being on several meetings with \[sensitive content hidden\] and learning the ins and outs of the program, I'm super happy with it. I love how it's genuinely set up to make things easier on us.

Pros

I like how accessible the help is. There are so many resources at our disposal to learn the system!

Cons

I think at first, carestack is very intimidating. It seems overwhelming if you don't understand fully how to navigate.

### "Our All-in-one PMS started us up!"

February 9, 2024

5.0

The platform is really an all-in-one option and saves our office time and money by requiring fewer hardware elements, and fewer software integrations.

Pros

Has all the features we need + the support to help when we need. Also: a true interest in improving the product with regular updates that don’t break the software.

Cons

All software is imperfect and has a learning curve. The marketing/communications tools are basic, but improving. Sometimes there are too many ways to do the same thing. This can make the initial onboarding a bit more confusing.

### "Progress not Perfection"

February 9, 2024

5.0

I’m very new to the dental industry. As a patient care coordinator with an education background…I find that CareStack promotes feedback/criticism. They allow for room to grow and develop. The interactions with CareStack employees has been top notch! They are very client-centric. I feel like the CareStack team that I personally work with is always striving to better the quality of service as well as ease the workload of in person colleagues. They allow front desk staff to work smarter not harder! I can appreciate that they are always improving. Progress not perfection.

Pros

CareStack team is constantly learning from criticism and feedback. They take what the customer is asking for and implements it as quickly as possible. Continuous improvement/updates to proved the customer with tailored care for their unique practice.

Cons

CareStack’s downfall will be the reliance on technology functionality. If our WiFi is down - that leaves us stranded in many areas (phones, appts, access to info). I would like to be able to do more with the system from my iPhone. Compatibility with various interfaces would be a huge improvement.

### "Go with Carestack!"

February 10, 2024

5.0

I have personally had a tremendous experience with Carestack. I have participated in their Platinum Coaching program and their desire to do everything they can to help you succeed is second to none!

Pros

I like that Carestack is a web-based platform so that even if I am not in the office, I can access our schedule, patient records, claim information, everything! Equally tied to accessibility from anywhere with an internet connection I love how user friendly it is.

Cons

They are missing some features and functions that competitors currently offer. However, the Carestack development team is exceptionally receptive and want to know what you need and want within the platform and develop plans to incorporate.

### "Carestack review"

February 14, 2024

5.0

Pros

I've been through several major software transitions during my time as a manager at Fortune 500 companies, so I knew how important choosing a management software would be. Carestack has been supportive, actively engaged, and willing to push out new features based on our feedback. Their support team is extremely responsive, and their innovation driven mindset has created significant value for our locations

Cons

Just like anything, you get out of it what you put into it. Spending the necessary time up front to ensure that the functionality was there for our needs was a big lift, but it ultimately paid off.

### "Complete Software Platform"

September 24, 2020

5.0

CareStack is a big powerful tool. I am a single unit operator, but there is a lot of capability and options for multiple practice management as well. My team and I are very happy with the software because of its capabilities and the support team at CareStack which helps us become more efficient every day. I haven't had to increase the number of team members while I have been able to increase collections.

Pros

I am a big fan of this software. I evaluated a few options and chose CareStack because I could access the software on any computer through a browser and the cost of support was included in the monthly price. I felt that the training material was polished and professional which makes learning and teaching CareStack easy. There are so many features that I cannot do it justice in this post. I highly recommend that you go talk to them and setup a demo. My favorite feature is that CareStack provides unlimited support using their chat which is hosted in the USA by people who are already familiar with dentistry like assistants and office managers. Sometimes, the support team can provide the answer before we are able to ask the questions. The support is also available during weekends! A few other notes, scheduling is intuitive, plenty of built-in tools like automated call/text/email reminders, imaging bridges, payment processing, and the list goes on. CareStack is very stable, the new updates seem to be thoroughly tested and new features are added regularly. With the pandemic, the staff spends less time in the office by doing remote work (scheduling/insurance/payments) and for patients CareStack provided a “Text to Pay” feature for contactless payments. Patients are also able to schedule themselves along with see their information in a Patient Portal. This software has reduced the amount of time we spend "stuck" and allow us to fly. Did I mention, that this software is FAST!

Cons

Learning curve can feel like a constant Fire Hose. Lots of features and knobs and new processes that had to be designed to work with modern software. The team is learning new things every day and finding ways to use the software more efficiently. We are still finding ways to extract more value out of this software. Patient Portal and Administration needs more refinement. Fortunately, patients don't really use this feature right now, but I would expect CareStack to have significant improvements in the next year or so to lead the industry in Customer Experience. I think future customers will expect to see their records and their patient notes, history, and essentially be able to communicate with the Dental team through the portal.

Reason for choosing CareStack

We chose CareStack over the other products because they didn't offer the number of features and capabilities in an all-inclusive price. CareStack offered a stable, predictable price considering the number of features that are needed for a new dental practice was a great value. The hard part is getting off the ground and setting up the team to work with the tool but that only took a couple of weeks.

### "Carestack has been a game changer for my dental office."

February 4, 2023

5.0

A great experience with amazing support. When we started we had a team to help us with questions on how to properly use the software and set it up. Even after training we could ask questions any time. Following the set up and training period we had coaching session. These sessions helped us learn how to use the software and reports to do better business. Since those sessions have ended, we have never had an issue getting support when there is an issue or concern with the software.

Pros

The system is user friendly and does not take hours of training. Patient enjoy the patient portal and the kiosk check in option. Carestack allows us to have online booking options, digital forms and streamlines the entire process within the office. Billing is easier and collecting payments from patient with the text to pay option has been a game changer. Our phone system is connected to Carestack and when patients call or text we easily can pull up there chart to properly assist them. I am able to log in on my phone, tablet and computer anywhere and at any time. My favorite feature is absolutely the teledentistry options in the system. You can schedule the patient directly on the appointment book and do the appointment in the software. This allows ease to access patient records and take notes during the appointment. There are no extra clicks or extra windows.

Cons

Would like the option to send secure messages through system
