The short version

  • Only Dentally has a free tier, so it costs nothing to try first.
  • Each has a real cost: Dentally pricing is per site and scales with the number of surgeries: Starter is £125 a month at 3 surgeries but £575 a month at 9; Epic MyChart myChart is not a direct-to-consumer product; Epic markets it as a tool that healthcare organizations license and configure to engage their own patients, so access depends entirely on a patient's provider having deployed Epic.
  • They diverge on capability: Dentally covers Cloud scheduling, Epic MyChart covers View Medical Records.
