Advantages of the Curve Cloud
Speed
"The speed is great."The security features of the Curve cloud, I think. I looked into this a bit, and it's my understanding that Curve is really one of the longest standing cloud-based softwares out there. So they had the most experience. They've had like 15 years of doing this. They've had no breaches and they employ, when I asked it something like I think they're called like they're their own hackers that they employ to kind of check the system periodically, I think they're called White Hat hackers or something like that.
What it boiled down to was when I looked at the options, they had the most experience with the cloud, they had the longest tenure in the cloud. And so even though they're a very current advanced system, they've been doing this for a while. They also have a really high user base, so that tells me that they're going to find anything fast and address it quickly. It's kind of like Google searching mail. They have all the mail, right? So they can search everything pretty quickly.
Curve has more users. They just have more experience. They have more time in the field on this thing. The Learning Curve is really, really good, especially for young auxiliaries kind of coming in, whether they're administrative or assistants, hygienists.
It's just a very it's a Mac versus PC approach. It's just easy to use. It uses that part of your brain that connects easier with the computer than that old antiquated windows based system. What are some of the other advantages? The speed. The speed is great. And frankly, I like the fact that I can access this anywhere.
I was able to access Dentrix remotely through a VPN, through all these complicated things. And it was so, so slow. And I have fast connections. With Curve, it's accessible right away. It's fast, it's easy. I can, like, drive home, do my stuff at home so I don't have to sit around the office. And it's just like I'm sitting in my office. It's fantastic.
I do treatment planning at home. I do these things when I want versus being location restricted. And I really like that a lot. That's been a big improvement to my quality of life. So there's quality of life improvements for me. There's quality of life improvements for my team. Definitely quality improvements. When you're onboarding people, it's unbelievable how much easier it is.
Those are just some of the many advantages that I see. Dentrix is just an old system. A lot of these legacy systems are just old, and they're clunky and they're slow and they break and they're prone to complication.
