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

Solutionreach

  • Solutionreach publishes no price for any of its four packages; every tier routes to a quote request or a sales phone number
  • SMS is metered per plan at 1,750, 3,500 and 4,500 messages a month, so a busy practice can exhaust the allowance
  • The Enterprise tier is aimed at organisations with 6 or more locations
  • Plans are sold on yearly contract options rather than month to month
