Office Manager Medical Practice Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "The why and why not's about Curve" September 13, 2022 4.0 Pros I'm really not sure. It's not a bad software but I just feel like it should have more options to "customize" for each practice needs. Cons The integration was not the easiest. We brought over our balances from our old software as "converted balances". I don't feel like we were explained how this would affect us as insurance claims were paid. The imaging is still a problem as updates are sent out - this is never smooth. The accounting in still a challenging - "running balance" even when the balance is zero. Insurance processing, insurance claims, when you place Sub on ID where and print the claim, it puts the social security #. We have called several times but it has not been resolved. I ask for an update to download all xrays at one time so I could email to another provider(ex: FMX) but you can only do this when they are in a mount - not individually. Review Source Response from Curve Dental September 14, 2022 We'd be very happy to speak more in detail to address your concerns. Please let me know if you'd like to discuss this further.

Pros Curve is easy to use and the cloud base make administration easier to deal with, when not at the office. Cons Accounting system needs to be easier to use! Review Source RG Ryan G. dentist/owner Health, Wellness and Fitness Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Switch Now!!! - A wonderful all around dental system - No Regrets!!!" September 6, 2022 5.0 Pros Ease of Integration Data transferred without issue Was initially hesitant about cloud software - but it is fantastic! Support is phenomenal They actually listen to suggestions and implement them to make the software better Cons They are improving all the time - could have more functionality of other 3rd party add ons - patient communication, outreach, etc Reason for choosing Curve Dental Ease of use, Intuitive, and Images were converted over!! Switched from [Eaglesoft](https://www.capterra.com/p/60064/EagleSoft-13-00/) Tired of managing servers and software issues when one company required an update and broke another Review Source AM Amber M. Office Manager Health, Wellness and Fitness Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Curve is a great product" September 6, 2022 5.0 Pros Very easy to learn this software and has great support. Cons Upgrades seem to occur over night with little to no communication with the dental office. Some advance notice to gather staff input and or ideas before hand would be great so they feel impowered by the changes and growth of the program. Switched from [Dentrix](https://www.capterra.com/p/2329/Dentrix/) Curve Dental seemed better suited for a paperless, chartless office and that was what we wanted.

Switching over went very smooth. I like that it is always improving. extra features are great, like, hands free perio charting. Credit card point of sale. electronic claim submission. Cons We really could use a spanish option for reminders to patients. In imaging the measurement tool is not very good. Imaging loads slow. Reason for choosing Curve Dental The reviews that curve had were great. We wanted a cloud based program. The features available. Review Source AD AnnaMarie D. Owner Health, Wellness and Fitness Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Great software on the cloud" September 12, 2022 5.0 This software has been simple and reliable and allowed me to not have an expensive IT team on retainer. Pros This is an easy to learn, user friendly software. My staff and I have all adapted quickly to using it. Cons We wish there was better communication during outages. When server was down we had little information to go on and had no idea when to expect it to function again. Alternatives considered [Dentrix Ascend](https://www.capterra.com/p/177828/Dentrix-Ascend/) Reason for choosing Curve Dental Seemed better developed Review Source SW Stacy W. Office Manager Hospital & Health Care Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Small Office Software " September 12, 2022 4.0 Coming from the medical field with no dental experience, overall it was very easy to learn and maintain. Pros Scheduling it very user friendly and easy to understand. Financial reports are very helpful Cons Lack of ability to total each provider columns for daily totals so each provider knows if they are close to goals. Right now we have to total manually the day before to review in next morning huddle. Also there is not a way to run a report for all of our inventory items. Review Source Response from Curve Dental September 13, 2022 We'd like to discuss this with you a little bit further so we can help. Would you be willing to chat? Thanks! CS Courtney S. Dentist Hospital & Health Care Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "Dentist Review" April 20, 2022 4.0 I enjoy Curve Gro. Additionally, customer service has been great and I enjoy the Curve Community option for problem solving. Pros I enjoy that imaging is on the same software. Cons It is not very clinically centered when it comes to moving from treatment plans to notes, etc. I also HATE how you cannot right click on an appointment after it has been closed. It takes me 4-5 clicks to get to the area where I need to type my note. It would be super beneficial to be able to right click on a closed appointment and immediately get to the notes. It's also a pain to not see notes automatically; each patient is automatically under a certain type of note so if you want to see them all, you need to change what is viewed with each new patient. Reason for choosing Curve Dental It was the only cloud based software that had imaging integrated. Review Source JA John A. Owner Medical Practice Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Overall very satisfied with Curve" September 12, 2022 5.0 very good Pros Curve makes business easy. Training was great. Cons Would like more geared to Pediatric Dentistry.

Office Administrator Medical Practice Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Cloud Based Dental Software with Superb Support" September 20, 2022 5.0 We love that CurveHero is cloud based. It always updates itself. We never have to buy additional updates. Pros The support. I can call any time of day and the team will walk me through whatever problem I am facing. Always extremely helpful. Cons It was difficult to adjust to some of the billing changes. Switched from [SoftDent a Sensei product](https://www.capterra.com/p/231653/SoftDent/) We wanted a cloud base software not one for which we had to consistently buy new installments or updates.

December 2, 2017 5.0 Cost, Efficiency, usability. Pros This is a complete solution to meet all Practice Management needs which is great but as this software is a cloud solution it is just like your Facebook account, Instagram, email etc, it is alway available right there where you need it and it works as it should but in a modern, more efficient way. It's quite intuitive and it is always trying to help you to achieve your goal. We've yet to encounter a gap a business process that is not covered. The Add-ons with Bluefin and Fast Attach function exactly as you would expect and work seamlessly. We're a brand new office and we've leveraged Curve for Practice Management and G-Suite (from Google) to manage email and documents. Doing this has allowed us to forego a any local server or even any network wiring, simplifying and reducing the cost of the build out. Both training and support have been great and they are never shy to quickly remote to your screen to quickly resolve any issue you may have. As for cost, by any metric it has to be cheap given you there is no installation or hardware cost and as it is cloud software upgrades are seamless and inherently free. To address the main counter argument of a cloud solution we are in a south Florida and during the last Hurricane, Irma, we had no risk of any server being flooded of course but once the storm was over and Comcast was still out we simply switched on the hotspot on the phone and we were up and running! Cons The Kiosk facility where Patients can can fill out their forms directly into Curve is good but you can see they are still building it out. Review Source Response from Curve Dental December 4, 2017 Thanks for the 5-star review! The benefits of a cloud-based management system, as you point out, far exceed the idea of keeping a server in your practice. Many thanks for your kind review and best wishes! DW Desiree W. Office Manager Hospital & Health Care Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Best Dental Software I ever used!" September 15, 2022 5.0 I have had nothing but pleasant experience. I use it everyday and never have any issues. Pros The seamlessness and ease of this software makes life so easy. I love that when an issue does occur customer service is readily responsive and always have a solution. Cons Nothing, it has everything we need to run a successful practice! Switched from [iDentalSoft](https://www.capterra.com/p/148958/iDentalSoft/)[Eaglesoft](https://www.capterra.com/p/60064/EagleSoft-13-00/) The functionality of this product made much more sense and we wanted a cloudbase software. Review Source AM Anita M. Owner Medical Practice Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Unprofessional and careless" February 3, 2019 1.0 So far behind the Curve compared to other dental management platforms. Pros Cloud based. That is it. Cons Customer service is horrendous. Can't load fee guides on time and make no effort to do so despite multiple requests well in advance. Constantly placated by staff that offer no solutions. Year after year the fee guides are not loaded on time. Staff could care less. Expensive for lack of functionality and having to manually input your fees because Curve doesn't care to meet deadlines. Perio chart is elementary; odontogram looks good but you really can't chart anything other than restorations and surfaces - everything you need to properly diagnose and record on the odontogram needs to be added by creating a note and drawing - its a waste of time; medical history - no log; cannot compare over time - bleeding and exudate require too much effort - who has time to colour in plaque and calculus - why is this even a function? ; estimates on insurance are incorrect; cannot coordinate benefits; everything is on a priority list, but what is a priority really doesn't improve clinical or business functionality and efficiency.

ADMIN, BILLER Medical Practice Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Curve is awsome" September 17, 2022 5.0 Pros Curve Dental is the best dental software out there.Developers are constantly updating and improving and taking sugesstions on how to better the program to meet users needs. I have made several that have been implemented. I have been in the dental field for over 25years and its the best out there. Cons wish there were stock built in reports and then our reports section, make a app for at least the schedule so schedulng emergencies away from a computer is easier Review Source AJ Amy J. Operations Administrator Hospital & Health Care Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Great Cloud-based Dental Software" December 13, 2016 5.0 We purchased five standing offices. Each had a different dental software. We needed a product that would enable us to view all five schedules remotely, and Curve has been terrific. It has changed how we look at schedules and increased our efficiency and flexibility. All employees can check their upcoming day from the comfort of their own homes. Training on the software is very good, and customer support is very responsive. Curve is always evolving, and the staff welcomes any and all suggestions. Most features are very useful, and, once one knows how to maneuver, they make sense and are easy to use. We plan to continue using Curve, and I have already recommended it to other dental offices. Pros I love being able to access all five office schedules at any time from any place where I have my laptop. Cons Most issues I have had have been MY user issues! I would LOVE to see a "daily diary" with chores like auto/property carriers use to remind adjusters of tasks. When I want to reschedule a cancellation or missed appt, I can't mark it appropriately AND put it in the queue as a quick reminder to call the patient. I know I can run a report, but I'd love to be able to use the queue as a daily diary as well. Review Source Response from Curve Dental March 10, 2017 Amy! Wow, your comments are much appreciated. I've copied your suggestions into a message to our development team--they are great! As you noted, when it comes to multiple locations Curve Dental can make your job much easier. With all the data at your fingertips in real time, that's gotta be helpful for a team member in your position. Good Neighbor Dental is an awesome organization. Best wishes!

Cost effective for a dental hygienist just getting set up in the biz. Cons The digital hard tissue charting and periodontal charting just don't compute with my old brain.

Dentist Hospital & Health Care Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Good value, practical" September 15, 2022 4.0 Pros Easy, simple, always customer support response. Affordable, many features. Ability to text patients from GRO application. Cons Reports not user friendly, difficult to create. Group messaging/ emailed capable but not practical. Billing/ invoicing is complex Review Source BD Baljit D. Owner/Dentist Hospital & Health Care Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Good but needs more support to fix everyday issues " September 15, 2022 4.0 Good- But they only improve what they want to improve not what weNEED them to improve. very recently the updates that were added my thoughts were like... okay thats minor and didnt really help-- can you fix the copy paste issue???? which is highly frustrating!!! Pros Ease of use, constant updates, access anywhere, fast, Cons There is no phone app- on the phone it is very Clunky Cannot Copy and paste notes- highly frustrating- tech support keeps giving work around and not solution invoice system is confusing doesnt work well with OON office Weave integration is poor Reason for choosing Curve Dental I used curve elsewhere and it was straighforward Switched from [Eaglesoft](https://www.capterra.com/p/60064/EagleSoft-13-00/) Crashed too much and was in the stoneage Review Source VR Verified Reviewer Executive Assistant Medical Practice Used the software for: 2+ years ### "We LOVE Curve" March 26, 2019 5.0 We recommend this software to anyone looking for an ease of use program that you can access anywhere as long as you have access to google chrome. It's fantastic! Pros The best feature about this software is that everything is in the cloud and you don't need to pay additional money for a giant server to hold medical records. Its very user friendly and even team members who haven't used it before seem to catch on quite quickly! Cons Because everything is cloud based, if there is a problem with internet (storm or something similar), everything goes down. It's a rare occurrence, but it does happen. Review Source ME Monique E. Office Manager Medical Practice Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Curve is behind the curve ball" May 31, 2019 4.0 Pros The ease of which one can email a receipt to a patient. Ease of scheduling. The playbook dashboards Cons 1.User are unable to make a correction in billing all at once. Right now with each correction it closes and then the user has to open it to correct the next line. 2.Route slip are unavailable. Would be nice even if just online with no printing. 3. The ability to print one visit of a treatment plan does not exist. The user needs to move the treatment to another plan if they wish to just print it alone and then move it back. 4. Unable to integrate with a third party collection agency so they real time data is not available. 5. Fee guides cannot be updated as claims are paid per an individual patients plan. 6. I would love for the ledger to have an option to have a line by line view (just like it would show in an account book) as opposed to clicking each visit to see what was done on that day. Review Source LB Lori B. Practice manager Hospital & Health Care Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "Nine Months In and Still Learning" September 6, 2022 4.0 Very attentive throughout the onboarding process and shortly after, training was very thorough and because as a team we dedicated a lot of time to it, it was as comfortable as a transition could be. It is pretty difficult to speak to someone after you are live; mostly you just have to text a concern and hope for a resolution. Pros We needed to go to a web-based PMS due to having more than one location. It is reliable in that we haven't had any downtime. Cons It is difficult to manage the accounts, not the easiest to customize the reports if you need to consider patients insurance status regarding outstanding claims. Reason for choosing Curve Dental The demo was very convincing.

Price is higher than it should be but it is more convenient in the cloud. If it could connect with Dental Intel, I would put it in all my offices. Pros Easy to use. Familiar feel. No need for a server for PMS and x-rays. Cons No option for CBCT backup. Can't be used together with Dental Intel. Default reports sometimes convoluted although you can make custom reports.

Pediatric dentist Hospital & Health Care Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Curve was the best decision for my practice!" September 22, 2022 5.0 My overall experience with Curve Dental has been great. I decided 12 years ago to go with the only cloud based software available and never regretted the decision or looked back once. I have shown the system to many new dentists starting up and I always recommend Curve over all the others. Pros Curve Dental has helped make my pediatric practice easy an successful. Cons We have very few problems with Curve. Sometimes there is a glitch with the xrays but it is usually resolved quickly. Review Source AN Angie N. Dr. Used the software for: ### "Curve is perfect for our office" June 23, 2011 5.0 We highly recommend Curve to all dental offices. Our situation made the choice easy because we started from scratch and thus didn't have any data conversion. Even though Curve may not have quite as many features as Dentrix yet, I believe that it will be there very quickly because of how quickly the company is changing and updating the program. For me, Cloud practice management systems are the future of dentistry, and I believe that Curve is the best in the Cloud. We would do it again in a heartbeat! Curve provides all that we need in a Practice Management Software. Pros Ability to use the software anywhere there's internet Very easy to learn Nice graphics Ability to email newsletters/mass emails to all patients Unending reports (can customize reports for what you want) Each user can customize their view of the schedule Doctor can limit what parts of the system each staff can change Patient education videos are excellent Ability to upload images (xrays, pictures, paperwork) to charts Easily bridges with our Dexis xray software Easy to electronically file claims Excellent customer service Constant updates & improvements to the software The prescription module is great The colors of Curve, the laid-back & witty Curve staff The charting and perio charting modules are excellent Less need for IT company to help (still have to have a server for digital xrays & have to pay them to keep that up-to-date) Ability to use Mac and PC computers in the office. Cons Can't use on an iPad (because of Flash) When uploading Xrays to the charts, it takes time and the xrays are in a horizontal line (not mounted). We don't use this feature. We've had trouble with the insurance estimation part--not accurate. The software doesn't allow us to add in codes for different procedures (we have to use what CDT codes are in)...unless we add it as inventory Some of the screen views are slow to load A few times we've clicked out of a chart and lost all of the charted treatment Review Source ## Send me user reviews about this product ### Fill out the form and we'll send a list of the top-rated software based on real user reviews directly to your inbox.
