Only Software for Dental
It's great. We have used it for years and see no reason to switch
PROSIt is the best software available for general dental professionals. Everything is easy to do and there isn't anything my staff can do that I am unable to undo. The settings allow for each user to have different access to things.
CONSEaglesoft is currently not cloud based. We have to have a physical server to use this software.

Started as a great product but not keeping up to date
Our office worked with Eaglesoft for 20 years. We had ups and downs with it, but generally speaking it was user friendly and had good functionality. It did lack in the ability to create customized reports. For the last few years, we did not feel there had been many updates to the software and it never seemed like any requests/suggestions for upgrades were addressed. The issue with having to use non-supported MS Office 10 was frustrating to say the least. Glitched at times with Vyne for our electronic claims as well. Two months ago our office converted to a cloud-based software because of our opinion of the lack of updated technology and upgrades to ES.
PROSEaglesoft has many great features and it is generally very user friendly
CONSIt is a server-based system that does not seem to be keeping up with the times. For example, the most recent version of MS Office that it is fully compatible with is 2010; which is not supported by MS any longer. It is also only compatible with a very select few printers and scanners.

PROSThe software is easy to use and easy train other members of our team. Extremely user-friendly. The interface is also clean and modern.
CONSX-rays uploading and loading takes some time. Also, confirmation and reminders options are not reliable so we had to sign up with a third party company.

My excellent experiences with Eaglesoft's service team have made me a loyal customer
I have tried, and used, many different dental practice management software systems, and I have concluded that Eaglesoft is by far the best system on the market. It is both easy to use, and user-friendly. The customer service, support, and live help features are outstanding - the staff are friendly, very knowledgeable, willing to work with you and very effective at solving problems. Updates are released regularly, and they often include great enhancements. Eaglesoft has a lot of features and capabilities; it is great to have them all in the same system and able to be easily integrated with other applications we use. Using Eaglesoft saves our practice a lot of time, money, and headaches.
CONSThere are definitely some enhancements that should be made; my office has put in quite a few enhancement requests recently. There are some issues with editing insurance company information and sending claims that need to be worked out a little better. I wish it had better capabilities in tracking financial and performance metrics, as well as making that data more accessible and in a friendlier format. I am also not impressed with the time clock, and have recently decided to use a time clock system that is included in the human resources management system we use. That is another improvement Eaglesoft could make - have more human resources capabilities, or perhaps have Patterson create a human resources application that integrates with Eaglesoft (like RevenueWell for patient management).

An absolute necessity
Our overall experience with Eaglesoft is positive, and just like any program is not without downfalls. But the benefits of Eaglesoft definitely outweight the negatives, as there aren't too many.
PROSEaglesoft does allow us to do many things that simpler dental software cannot, and most of that starts with reporting. There are many comprehensive reports that allow us to see what is going on throughout our practice, including but not limited to: production, collections, insurance, accounts receivable. The list goes on. But most importantly, this allows us to keep track of everything that's going on with our patients, from a clinical and administrative perspective.
CONSCustomer support with Eaglesoft is severely lacking. Every time we experience any issues are bugs, we are politely told to deal with it until the next software update. But they do make it very difficult to do updates.
Reason for choosing Eaglesoft
We have used Eaglesoft in this office since I have been employed here, and as far as I know, for the last decade or longer.

Eaglesoft is great
Eagle Soft has been working for the office for several years.
PROSI am learning Eaglesoft without training and find that it is very user friendly. I had filled in at a couple offices and they just did not have time to train me so I just had to figure it out. It was not hard. The designers were very good and made it easy to use .
CONSI came from using PracticeWorks for 20 years followed by OpenDental for a shorter time. Of course, changing to a different program is always challenging. Again, I probably should have had some training and still can not figure out how to generate certain reports. If I am trying to balance the morning (if it has been a busy morning I like to balance at lunch so if there are mistakes I don't wait until end of day to fix them), I can not generate collection/ production report.

Decent software but overpriced
Overall Eaglesoft is not a bad option for practice management software but there are other more cost efficient products that deliver equal if not better results.
PROSEaglesoft is easy to use and has a number of helpful reports to check on the health of your dental practice.
CONSI feel that Eaglesoft support is greatly overpriced. We rarely use it in part because the hold times are usually so long that we do our best to avoid calling them. It also seems the price increases every year.
Vendor Response
We value your feedback and are sorry to hear about your experience with support. There are times throughout the year when call volumes increase which causes longer hold times. In these instances we encourage our customers to Live Chat with our support team. Our support fees are competitive and cover multiple items, including software upgrades.

Eaglesoft
Overall is easy to learn software, great for keeping patient's data. All the staff like it and if the support wasn't discontinued in Canada most likely we will not change it. Also customer service was on great level, always fast response on support when we need it.
PROSFinancial tab- easy to navigate through all financial transactions, filters in account to enter criteria as period of time of payments or patients on same account. Also reporting is super clear- Production, Adjustment, Collection! Treatment plan reports, report by procedure codes are great. Report for certain period of time can by done by the end of the day/ month/year (closing reports) or by specific date. This way you can have perfect accuracy in data. Another great future is the calendar window pinned on the left side of the screen which easy can take to a different day.
CONSCancelled appointments go to so called Quick Fill List and is the only one option to create a contact for incomplete treatment. Also the notes on this appointment can be deleted any time, they are not permanently saved and do not carry the information of who did it and when unless entered manually- but then once again this info always can be deleted.

2nd worst dental software on market
I have now been using this dental program for two years with two of the three offices that I manage and since I know four dental programs (Cloud, Dentrix Soft-dent, and Eagle soft) I am very unhappy with the design of this program and the lack of corrections with the updates since they have had two updates with barely and valid or needed changes even after my hundreds of phone calls and suggestions. I feel whom ever made this software had not enough dental knowledge when it came to the front/back office and the actual service workings
PROSease of scanning paperwork certain reports are very helpful task manager helps to remind staff members of specific things that may need to be done.
CONSClaim processing/editing Service editing lack of Program compatibility Treatment planning Tabbing reports printing all open claims (It never prints them all) Also another suggestion any time an appointment is moved/Changed it should auto log in the notes whom did it to help larger offices save time

PROSI think that Eaglesoft is one of the easiest, most concise dental office software out there. Practice reports, patient reports are easliy accessible for administrative purposes.
CONSOne thing I'm not fond of with Eaglesoft is the rescheduling of appointments, I think there could be a better, quicker way of doing that.

Excellent dental software!
We tried two other dental softwares in our newest location before we went back to eaglesoft. I love eaglesoft compared to the others we used.
PROSI like the ease and integration of dental insurance and filing claims and claims with attachments.
CONSI wish there was some way to add even more limitations and frequencies for the benefits section. Like age limits for fluoride/sealants, an option for bridges and such not to be covered on missing teeth and copying insurance companies to account for plans with waiting periods and without so you didn’t have to creat a whole new one just for a waiting period.

An "ok" dental software....
We operate fairly well with the program, but none of us are really fans of it.
PROSthe customer service is very good with patterson. The live chat feature is extremely helpful, and much quicker than trying to call an 800 number and being on hold forever. There is also a "topic search" so you can try to find your own way through a specific area. I also like that there are videos on youtube to assist with training.

BEWARE: Eaglesoft not supported on Windows Server 2019! (as of 9/2020)
As an IT consulting firm, we support Dental practices using this software package.
CONSBEWARE that Patterson/Eaglesoft doesn't support Windows Server 2019! (as of 9/2020) I advised a client to purchase a Windows Server 2019 system, never imagining that Patterson STILL doesn't support an OS that's been released for almost 2 years! The client is unhappy, being stuck in purgatory waiting for Patterson. What's worse is that Patterson doesn't even have any timeline/roadmap for when this bedrock server OS version will be supported, according to Patterson tech support: https://pattersonsupport.custhelp.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/39877/~/microsoft-server-2019-os-compatibility One can only wonder what this lack of support telegraphs about the stability/viability of Patterson going forward.

As a dental hygienist in a busy office, I can attest that this software is my favorite!
Scheduling patients is very easy, I can set the type, length of visit, and preferred provider in just a few seconds. The icons are very easy to see and navigate.
CONSThe charting can be a bit difficult to use for new beginners. There are a lot of drop downs and unless you've practiced it could take a while to learn. However, there are great YouTube videos available so you can learn at home.
