Best program EVER

Absolutely loved everything about it. It was very easy to manage and navigate through. We noticed a decrease in no show appointments since the patients would receive last minute reminders of their appointments. Our office had Lighthouse360 for several years and never once had a problem. A little less than a year ago we switched to another program as they offered a little bit of a cheaper price. Biggest mistake we have ever made.

PROS

The program was so easy to use and manage. So many of our patients raved about the text messaging communication and the reminders. We could group patients and send a specific text or e-mail to them. Lighthouse provided a list of patients who were overdue for their routine cleanings and would also send them reminders. It was such a time savor and "patient pleaser".

CONS

Honestly can not even think of one complaint.

Reason for choosing Lighthouse 360

We had Lighthouse360 prior to going to Solutionreach. We never had a complaint about Lighthouse however, Solutionreach offered a cheaper price. Or so we thought. Everything was extra money, it was so hard to navigate and figure things out. Once we signed up (they also make you sign a year contract where Lighthouse does not) we never heard from them again. We had lots of problems and it was impossible to get a hold with a tech. Where we NEVER had any problems with Lighthouse and if we had any questions we could get through right away. Biggest regret was leaving Lighthouse360.

I want to love it, but I don't

Overall it does a good job with patient appointment tracking, recare/recall and confirmation which has made our lives a bit easy. Customer service is amazing unlike what we experienced with our last software.

PROS

It is a great software for confirmations, and recall. It definitely has helped to improve our patient scheduling.

CONS

The software does not write back into Dentrix the way that we were told it would. The paperless forms do not auto-populate the information into the family file nor does the form generate into the patient's doc center. They are not able to "mask" the number used to confirm as the office number if it is a voIP line, which was also disappointing.

Reason for choosing Lighthouse 360

The promise of features/ dentrix bundle pricing.

Reasons for switching to Lighthouse 360

Weave's customer service was terrible, the functionality of the software was not a good fit for our office.

Great communication tool

Cancelling appointments due to employee illness or inclement weather is SUCH a breeze, it takes me maybe 10 minutes to clear the day. Lighthouse will even call patients without an email or cell phone!!

PROS

Two-way texting is absolutely a plus! When trying to fill our schedule, we don't even have to pick up the phone!

CONS

Sometimes it doesn't sync in the time frame they say it does. It's supposed to sync every 10 minutes but I've implemented changes that haven't shown up until an hour later before.

Reason for choosing Lighthouse 360

Price and features were the largest selling points for us. Weave was a close second, but our older employees had a really tough time figuring that out during the demo.

Failed to send critical email Blast during the MOST important time--Corona Virus

Over all mostly helpful at the time we started, then less effective in preventing cancellations. Too many limitations on wording of messages. Templates are too restrictive. The worst failure is when I needed them the most which is when I needed them to help me contact patients about important, life-saving messages about the Corona Virus. So many other email blast services worked for others, LightHouse FAILED big time. There were not even apologetic about it and did not provide responses to my concerns other than a generic we are aware of it and working on it. I has been a week and half and no response.

PROS

Texting capability to individual patients

CONS

mail blast software is too cumbersome and does not have features to cancel an blast when it is not working. Customer service once I reported the problem was dismal, rude and uncaring.

Lighthouse for our dental office

Overall, Lighthouse has been a helpful addition to our practice and has made some aspects of patient communication easier for us. All the appointment reminders and confirmation texts, eliminated our need to manually call and confirm/remind patients which saved our office a lot of time.

PROS

The features that our office likes most about Lighthouse is the ability to send out last minute appointment availability when there is a cancellation in our schedule. We found a lot of people have difficulty scheduling too far in advanced due to their personal schedules so almost every time we send out a last minute appointment message, the appointment is filled. We also like that it lists out the responsibilities and tasks that need to be completed by both the front desk and the dentist for every day.

CONS

The feature that our office liked the least about Lighthouse was that it did not integrate directly with our dental practice management software so we have to send some messages to patients manually and that when we delete a patient from our practice management software, Lighthouse would continue sending messages to the patient until we inactivated the patient.

Overall Good Product

Price is okay, they raised it this year, but didn't add any additional features to reflect price change.

PROS

Ease of text messages to patients, our practice has seen a higher rate of confirmations and response with texting, and with LH it makes it very easy

CONS

It can be very laggy, and it will have glitches where it won't send out confirmation messages, but they don't tell you, they just let it ride. That's annoying.

Lighthouse 360 Was Disappointing and Dangerous for Our Practice

Overall I didn't like Lighthouse 360, we needed something HIPPA compliant for sending texts but I wish we had started with a different software as this one caused constant frustration and reaching out to customer support, which was difficult to get ahold of.

PROS

I did appreciate the ability to text message patients quickly and securely. This was very useful. Also, being able to check the schedule remotely from home was helpful.

CONS

The software was constantly crashing and wouldn't let me access the pages. I would have to clear my cache every time I used it. Multiple times the account would go out of sync, which would send out appointment reminders to patients who had canceled or rescheduled, leaving them upset and confused. Email campaigns are very limited in UX/UI and need improving.

Reasons for switching to Lighthouse 360

Lighthouse 360 was at the time more cost effective for the practice.

Great options not found with other companies!

Happy clients! I really like all aspects of the software! I have reviewed many software programs that are in the same category and this is by far the best I have seen. I like that it was designed by a dentist. I have been a fan since it was first created. The competitors can't hold a candle to this software. I recommend it to all the dental clients I work with. Their postcards are beautiful, bright and high quality glossy paper. You will not be disappointed, be sure to utilize it to it's fullest potential!

PROS

Love how easy it is to customize their services to meet the needs of my dental offices, like having LH360 email the office on the day the patient is due, if they are not scheduled, so our office a personally call them. Patients really feel cared for and appreciated! They are impressed that we are not letting them slip through the cracks!

There is a competitor that is able to copy health form information that is filled out online right into Dentrix as well as all the other features Lighthouse offers. I feel like this is an attractive feature that may lead people to switch

Lighthouse 360 Does a Good Job, Fewer Features

Lighthouse 360 is good for what it is (patient communication software). Great for texting with patients and setting up a reminder system. For the same price, I found that I could get this same service from other companies, but with more features included, such as patient-review texts and paperless forms. Ultimately, after buying an office that already had Lighthouse360, we elected to switch to a different product to get those other features.

PROS

Easy to use, user-friendly patient communication platform.

CONS

Would like it better if it had more features, such as a patient-review platform and paperless forms for patients, included for the price.

Easy and convenient

PROS

Lighthouse 360 has made it easy to communicate back and forth with patients via their appointments, new insurance information, updating address, etc. It is convenient because the whole team (both front desk and clinical) can use the system by confirming appointments and communicating back and forth.

CONS

Although very convenient to use, there are still errors in regards to whether an appointment has been properly confirmed or not. (sometimes it says confirmed and it has not been). The monthly fee is a little more expensive than I would like to see but there are many resources involved in the service.

Keeps patients coming to their appointments, but not as full featured as some

PROS

Easily set up text and email reminders for your patients, so that they know when their next appointment is coming. Lighthouse integrates with the practice management software to let you know a patient has confirmed their appointment.

CONS

Lighthouse has gone a little bit downhill over the past couple of years. Support isn't what it once was. Sometimes, patients will get reminders for the incorrect appointment time! Once you do get support onboard, they do a good job. It just takes a while sometimes to get in touch. See alternatives before jumping onto Lighthouse.
