### Most mentioned pros

- The cloud-based system is fast, intuitive, and keeps everything from scheduling to billing perfectly streamlined.
- Overall, I would absolutely recommend Curve to be used as a system for a dental clinic. Once you have the proper training and get the hang of using the system, it is a great program to use.
- 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.

#### Ratings breakdown

- Customer support: 5/5

#### 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
- Customer support: 5/5
- Functionality: 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 :)

#### Ratings breakdown

#### Pros

Very modern looking and nice interface. Very responsive customer support. Easy to use and train new employees on how to use.

#### 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.

#### Ratings breakdown

#### Pros

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.

#### Cons

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

Being able to utilize the same system for two different practices.

### Curve is OK.

- Overall rating: 4/5
- Reviewer: Pamela A.
- Verified reviewer: Yes
- Industry: Health, Wellness and Fitness
- Company size: 11-50 employees
- Product usage: Used daily for more than 2 years
- Reviewed: March 2024
- Review source details: This reviewer was invited by us to submit an honest review and offered a nominal incentive as a thank you.

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.

We have increased production and decreased AR due to the ease of reporting which allows us to manage patient care so effectively.

#### Ratings breakdown

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

#### 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

Great! I love cloud-based dental software and ease of use of of each module. I've been using Curve for over 10 years and recommend it, especially to start up dental practices and practice with multiple offices.

#### Ratings breakdown

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

#### Pros

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

#### Cons

Practice analytics could be a bit more robust (I think they're working on new features). Insurance estimates are sometimes inaccurate.

#### Vendor response

Thank you for the kind words—and for being with us for 10+ years! We love hearing how well Curve GRO and scheduling are working for your team, and really appreciate your feedback on what you'd like to see in estimates and analytics. One of our account managers will be following up with you directly to look at some possible tweaks to help improve your experience. If you haven’t explored it yet, our new Eligibility+ tool might help—it automates insurance verification at the code level, with AI-powered discrepancy detection. We'll be happy to share more when we connect with you.

I love using Curve Hero—it makes managing our dental office so much smoother and more organized. The cloud-based system is fast, intuitive, and keeps everything from scheduling to billing perfectly streamlined.

#### Cons

Sometimes there are outages and updates that take a while to apply during business hours. Also wish we could filter by individual patient in billing.

#### Ratings breakdown

- Value for money: 3/5
- Customer support: 4/5

#### Pros

The software is very modern and sleek. It is much better than serve based programs, and the stability is much better. Also, not having to worry about a server has been great. Treatment planning on it is great and most aspects for clinicians is great. While not perfect, the constant updates are great.

#### Cons

The details is where this software needs to improve. There is a lack of true Dental Practice Management. There are some pie graphs and bar graphs, but the metrics are useless because they don't really link to anything and the whole interface is a bit confusing. I think Curve can really make a difference by integrating information that a program like Dental Intel provides. Other aspects of the program still seems like work in progress. I wish there was more support for Fee for Service offices. Also, please allow iPads to have full access to the site instead of the watered down mobile version. Or release an iPad app!

### Customer Service is Slow if you have Billing Questions

I've realized cost savings with Curve but they still have some kinks to work out. If you aren't from the USA, definitely keep an eye on your billing and make sure you aren't being billed in US dollars and CALL IN new credit card numbers.

#### Ratings breakdown

- Ease of use: 4/5
- Value for money: 4/5
- Customer support: 3/5
- Functionality: 3/5

#### Pros

Cost is reasonable which was a big one for me, setup is easy and it's easy for staff to learn how to use Curve.

#### Cons

It's impossible to reach the billing department. If you call (and it's not a product demo or purchase) you get directed to leave a voicemail and in my experience I didn't get a response for 24 hours (but suddenly did after saying I'd be writing about my experience on social media). If you update your credit card online, you are automatically charged in US dollars. Apparently, Canadians are supposed to read some small print somewhere that says "Canadians must call to update expired credit card numbers". I missed the small print and was paying in US dollars for months before noticing the fee was up $200/month with the exchange. 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. It takes so long to get through to the billing department that calling is definitely an annoying issue. Curve needs more folder functionality; if you see patients for several years you end up with a long list of letters for anything you scan in such as insurance responses, estimates you have provided, patient medical history, etc. It really adds up after a few years and becomes difficult to locate amongst hundreds of letters. Also when your internet server goes down or Curve goes down you are in trouble because you have no way of seeing your notes or the medical history of your patients.

#### Reasons for choosing Curve Dental

TDO is costly to buy initially and I just didn't have the extra money at the start of opening a new practice.

The customer service is outstanding. When the dental team has a question on a certain topic, they go to the Curve Community and easily look up the topic.

#### Ratings breakdown

#### Pros

We love that Curve has the capability to do most everything we need for our dental practice! Messaging to patients, online payments, scheduling, claims, insurance verification, etc. They also make it very easy to talk to an actual person when and if you need them along the way.

#### Cons

There are a couple of items that we have submitted as suggestions to Curve (which they tend to implement tickets along the way). These include the option to create forms in other languages, specifically Spanish as our patient base does include Spanish speaking patients. Also, Curve needs the function to create CMS-1500 forms to send to medical insurance as we currently use an outside software for this.

#### Cons

I would like to have a notes function that is specific to certain aspects of the patient's chart - such as billing or appointment notes (i.e. patient can come in earlier). These notes are not related to clinical care, so I'd like to have them in a separate place than the clinical notes.

- Functionality: 3/5

#### 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.

#### Reasons for switching to Curve Dental

I feel like we had "outgrown" our old software.

#### Vendor response

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. Thank you for the feedback.

So far behind the Curve compared to other dental management platforms.

#### Ratings breakdown

- Ease of use: 3/5
- Functionality: 2/5

#### 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.

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.

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.

#### Vendor response

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!

#### Ratings breakdown

- Value for money: 5/5
- Customer support: 5/5
- Functionality: 5/5

#### 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.
