Where each one falls short

Documented limitations, not opinions. Every one is a constraint you would hit in normal use.

Apteryx

  • Apteryx is now sold as the cloud imaging product inside the Planet DDS portfolio rather than as a standalone vendor
  • No price is published for Apteryx cloud imaging; Planet DDS routes all pricing enquiries to sales or a demo request
  • Practice management is a separate purchase, Denticon or Cloud 9, so imaging alone does not cover charting and billing
