ABELDent

What do you like best?

It is reliable software if you are performing core functions day in and day out. It doesn't crash or freeze often. It also isn't a major memory hog. Changes to the day's schedule can be made relatively quickly, but other software still excel in this area more than Abeldent.

What do you dislike?

This software was created a long time ago when cloud functionality was not on the radar. As a result, I find that trying to include that type of functionality is not a seamless or easy fit. It is also lacking in advanced reporting features that other software has, or that third-party integrations with Abeldent can provide. I also find the interface really dated and it isn't super intuitive to use to run reports as other software. The interface looks like something coming out from 90's software.

Recommendations to others considering the product:

I would only consider this software if you plan on keeping all your data internal and have no dreams for cloud backups, cloud file retrieval from off-site, no need for online forms that can sync with dental software to capture patient information. Basically, if you don't want to join the future, this software is for you.

What problems are you solving with the product? What benefits have you realized?

Having a reliable software for regular day in, day out processing. The benefits are that you save time by not having to troubleshoot issues all the time since it really limits you in terms of what kind of functionality you can accomplish. There is no online portal that is full-featured to worry about.
