### Most mentioned pros

- The cloud-based system is fast, intuitive, and keeps everything from scheduling to billing perfectly streamlined.

- Our busy dental office loves how easy it is to manage our patient schedule on Curve.

### Most mentioned cons

- Insurance estimates are sometimes inaccurate.
- This software seemed like a baby in comparison with other dental software and was advanced technically (cloud and clicking to customize was very modern) but not when it came to how it needed to be used in the managemnet prospective and reports it seemed to lack development.
- I find it hard to believe that a software developer cannot come up with a better solution where there are different ikons to click for customers of different countries to update their credit card number.

#### Pros

Love the ledger and how it is INVOICE based, so you can easily reference what payments go to what treatment. Love how user friendly the system is.

#### Cons

charting - wish that you could still have the tabs but have the diagram show all of what is treatment planned. (that is the biggest complaint from the op side) It would also be nice to scan and item one time and add to 2 different accounts vs scanning it separately into both accounts

#### Reasons for choosing Curve Dental

I felt it met our standards for what we needed. Was more user friendly then the others. Customer Service/Implantation team was more helpful. When doing the demo, Curve was on top with answering questions and having the info I needed/wanted.

#### Reasons for switching to Curve Dental

We wanted something that was cloud based and more user friendly

I am a HUGE Fan of CURVE. I am actively recommending to folks on a regular basis. It took a few weeks to retrain the way our team does things, but now the whole office is running smoother.

#### Ratings breakdown

- Ease of use: 5/5
- Value for money: 5/5

#### Pros

I LOVE LOVE LOVE the fact that everything is in one place. Having the forms auto load into a patient chart saves so much time and reduces errors.

#### Cons

I am not a huge fan of the reports, mostly because I am still learning how to create what I want. But once I get what I want and save it, they're great.

#### Reasons for choosing Curve Dental

OpenDental was like reading a text book. It had no color and was quite complicated. Curve in ENGAGING and VERY user friendly. Fuse simply couldnt compete, you still have to go outside the software for a lot of the things that are built into CURVE.

#### Reasons for switching to Curve Dental

MacPractice was becoming obsolete. We were having to go to several other platforms to get patient forms, payment processing, patient communication etc... now it's all in once place.

#### Vendor response

Hi Laura! Thank you for this awesome feedback. We really appreciate you and your team, and are so grateful you trust Curve with your practice workflows. Please know, we have taken the feedback re: reports to heart, and some exciting updates are in the works! Stay tuned for more to come soon :)

#### Cons

Curving Imaging and Gro are lacking in function. Some of the reports are also lacking in function and can be very confusing to use. Mobile access requires subscription to GRO despite the software itself already cloud-based.

I like the insurance portion where you can add in any past benefits used and any other notes such as no coverage for certain things.

I do not love how viewing the x-rays are set up. I think imagining could use improvement. It would be nice for the images of tooth specific in that area, such as upper right or lower left side.

#### Reasons for switching to Curve Dental

### Curve is OK.

The conversion was awful, as all conversions are. There are several things we expected Curve to have that it turns out, it does not (like a simple time clock program). The training was not great and all remote. Many staff members had a very difficult time with that. The response when calling in for support has been pretty good.

#### Ratings breakdown

- Ease of use: 4/5
- Value for money: 4/5
- Customer support: 4/5
- Functionality: 4/5

#### Pros

It is cloud based and can be accessed from anywhere with an internet or wifi.

#### Cons

There are many "options" needed that, hopefully, will be coming. If you print a receipt for a patient (they need for FSA or HSA) the tooth number does not print on the receipt. This has been an issue for several patients. Statements are not easy to process. The reports are unimpressive.

#### Reasons for choosing Curve Dental

The doctor liked it because it had the most users.

#### Reasons for switching to Curve Dental

We have two offices and we needed to be able to access the info from both offices.

#### Ratings breakdown

#### Pros

Curve is a fantastic software for multi location practices!! Makes the management of all locations so easy and daily, weekly and monthly reporting is streamlined

#### Cons

It would be great if they would continue to work toward making it more Pedo/ortho friendly. Having the option of “mother” “father” instead of just contact or patient would be fantastic. Reports need to be tweaked to not consider our parents active patients. Payment plan option would be great. We would have used the software for both our Pedo and ortho practices but at the very least you need the ability to set up payment plans for ortho contracts which is not offered therefore we have to run on two separate softwares. One for Pedo and one for ortho. Non -ideal.

#### Reasons for choosing Curve Dental

Cost and ease in use. User friendly is a requirement for bringing in new team members.

#### Reasons for switching to Curve Dental

Ability to monitor multiple locations via the cloud instead of individual servers per location that had to sync data and images at a specified time. Dentis

Online scheduling, CurveGRO (patient communication, reminders, texting, etc). UX is user-friendly. Almost no downtime.

Everyone involved with the sale, training, and set-up was great. There've been a couple times where one of us has called Curve for help and the Curve person seemed impatient or frustrated with what are probably dumb questions. I do feel that [SENSITIVE CONTENT] and I are going to have to make time to sit with someone and have them walk through some EOBs/billing with us so we can get a better understanding. The training & homework went well, but it's hard to understand what you're learning until you're actually in it.

#### Ratings breakdown

#### Pros

I loved the potential of it. I think Curve will be amazing after a couple more years of development. We were initially excited about the patient portal and online payments.

#### Cons

I think I've said it enough. We haven't been able to start on using the portal and payments because we are struggling so hard with billing. And maybe we're just not clicking and understanding the billing module. Either way, it's been a very long learning process. Not frustrated enough to quit Curve, but I wish we had a better grip of things.

Thank you for your comments. We would be happy to discuss your concerns in greater detail. Please don't hesitate to contact me.

#### Pros

The software itself is great. The billing practices and management are sketchy....

#### Cons

I like curve, and the representatives I've talked to through implementation and occasional tech support have always been helpful and friendly. The big however came this year when Curve decided to increase the amount they charge me mid-contract with ~3 wks notice. The terms of my auto renewing yearly contract require me to give Curve a lengthy non-renewal notice in advance of the anniversary date if I decide to switch. Curve, however, seems to think it's ethical and acceptable to change my price in the middle of a contract period with nowhere near enough notice to make a change on the scale of switching practice management software. As the owner of my office I understand the challenges of inflation quite well and would have been perfectly happy with the price increase IF it was done with reasonable notice and at the anniversary date. Changing price in the middle of a contract with very little warning, however, is a bushleague tactic of companies to be avoided. I still use Curve, and I may not even decide it's worth my time and effort to switch when my next yearly contract is up, but I will never recommend them or trust them again.

I would be cautious if you don't have a bunch of dental background and the billing could cause you to lose patients like it has for us. We took over the office and it had not run correctly so we inherited the billing mess. Curve was not able to help us decipher what had been entered or why. So ultimately we were not pleased with the software.

#### Ratings breakdown

#### Pros

The ability to see on the cloud and have multiple locations was really an amazing software. Ease of clicking and customizing everything was great. Customer service was amazing and they always answered.

#### Cons

Cost was very high and they charged for everything on top of the monthly fee if you needed to add a Dr. to the practice and have an extra user there was a cost. This software seemed like a baby in comparison with other dental software and was advanced technically (cloud and clicking to customize was very modern) but not when it came to how it needed to be used in the managemnet prospective and reports it seemed to lack development. Billing was so confusing with the invoice options and was impossible to give a a good quote and collect correctly.

Excellent. Curve is the best of the cloud. And the cloud is way better than any VPN type system and far superior to use and maintain and manipulate and backup than any internal network would be. As simple as a high speed internet connection, an unmanaged gigabyte switch and internet connections. Wireless works too, I just like the speed of most of the workstations in the operatories wired in. Less load on a wireless router in a big office. Curve took us through conversion from Dentrix, training of the staff and the practice manager and has been there through our inexperienced moments. The doctors didn't even train and they picked it right up. The software improves over time for the better and it was great to begin with.Curve Hero has been a great decision. I couldn't be happier.

#### Ratings breakdown

- Ease of use: 5/5
- Value for money: 5/5
- Customer support: 5/5
- Functionality: 5/5

#### Pros

Intuitive. Written with the end user in mind. The trusty "Sidekick" feature (get it? Hero...) on the right of the screen let's you quickly work through a patient. Once I was used to seeing between two offices from any location I was frustrated the third wasn't online yet. I could never go back. The combination of cloud management, lack of internal Network IT needs (an internet connection, Google Chrome, and Adobe Reader and Flash and you're there) and the user friendliness and cuteness of the software and I'm hooked. No bridge between most digital x-ray formats. We're using Scan-X and looking to upgrade to Plan Mecas CBCT ProMax Classic at all three locations.

#### Cons

There is a lag during the prescription writing portion of the "program." You have to wait a bit before it starts to respond. After that... Zoom. Also, if you need a new image taken you need to refresh charting and then go back to images. Sometimes, it doesn't like to let me modify images gamma, light, dark, inspect/zoom in. None of these are huge difficulties. I would not change companies.

It does not make logical sense to be able to have a debit & a credit on the same account at the same time. I really struggled with this when 1st trying to learn Curve. I then learned it & could read it. My most recent dislike is the new changes in billing. It is very difficult to read. Please make changes optional.

#### Cons

The X-ray automation is cumbersome. The profile head of house hold indication is a bit clunky with respect to the billing. The notes. If you don’t write notes for that day, your notes is recorded for the day you decide to write it. The constant updates with curve capture that affects our X-ray when we needed.

### Confident in Curve!!

Switching to Curve Hero from my old server based practice management software has proven to be one of the best decisions I could make. I was faced with ever increasing server issues and daily troubleshooting was causing me to feel more like an IT person learning on the job than a dentist on some days. Even hiring multiple IT gurus was a not a good use of my time or resources. Now that I have been with Curve for almost 4 years I can say it has done a lot more for me than solve IT headaches. It has opened opportunities for me as a dentist that I didn't know were possible. I have since merged my practice with another dentist and opened a second location. Curve's cloud-based software has allowed us to manage 2 locations. Curve has made it much easier to manage multiple providers and staff. All we need is an internet connection. It has allowed us to centralize many of our services. The new staff we have hired on have adapted quickly to Curve and love it's intuitive features. We spend less time training new employees on how to use the software. This year for the first time we had the opportunity to attend the Curve Summit. It was well worth the investment in time and money. It struck the right balance between fun and learning. It pumped up the team! What I was most impressed about was the ability to actually interact with the leadership and staff of Curve. At one point, we mentioned that we were developing ideas on centralized services for managing multiple practices. The next thing we knew we had a meeting set up with the executive leadership of the company. They genuinely listened to our ideas and asked us questions on how Curve could help fulfill some of our needs. It was evident to me that they cared about their customers by actually listening and implementing the things that practicing dentists want from their practice management software. I have never experienced anything like that meeting. I came away very impressed by their leadership, direction, and mission. Their platform is perfectly designed to continue to evolve with technology and implement improvements. They listen to their customers. They focus on what is important. They provide a great value for their customers in what they offer. I have used other practice management and imaging software programs. I am confident in my long-term partnership with Curve. This partnership will continue to give me opportunities to adapt to the changes that are occurring in dentistry today.
