Simplified billing – makes the billing process clear and straightforward. Excellent support team – quick, knowledgeable, and responsive assistance. Continuous improvement – frequent updates and enhancements to the software. Customizable features – ability to tailor certain tools to fit your office’s specific needs. > > **Cons**: When we first started using CareStack, there were a few things that took some time to get used to, and a couple of minor issues that we noticed early on. However, the CareStack team was very responsive — they listened to our feedback and made updates and improvements quickly. Those initial concerns have since been fixed, so at this point, we really don’t have any major issues with the software. > > Overall, CareStack software is reliable, easy to use, and backed by great support that keeps improving. ----- ### "Strong Implementation, Strong Software" — 5.0/5 > **Bethany** | *4 February 2026* | Medical Practice | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10 > > **Pros**: CareStack is truly an all-in-1 software for dental offices, everything we could possibly need is in CareStack. Also, their support is always accessible and responsive - following through with all requests. > > **Cons**: No option for unlimited outbound SMS / email messaging. With an office our scale, unlimited would be something we could benefit from. > > Our office implemented CareStack at the beginning of this year as part of our search for a true all-in-one practice management system that could streamline both the patient and team experience. Now that we are transitioning out of the implementation phase, our team has nothing but positive things to say about the experience. Throughout our transition away from our previous PMS, the CareStack implementation team, specifically \[sensitive content hidden\] was exceptional. They guided us through every step of the process and made what could have been an overwhelming transition feel organized, supported, and manageable. Their knowledge, responsiveness, and attention to detail gave us a great deal of confidence in our decision to move forward with CareStack. As expected with any major technology change, there were some hiccups along the way, but the team handled each one with professionalism, patience, and care. We had no shortage of questions, and support was always timely and thorough. If someone couldn’t immediately assist us, they quickly connected us with the right person and ensured we were guided in the right direction. We also truly valued their workflow recommendations. We took their suggestions seriously, implemented them into our processes, and have already seen how well they support the day-to-day flow of our office. It’s clear they know the software inside and out and genuinely want their clients to succeed. When it comes to the software itself, we are extremely pleased with what CareStack allows us to do clinically, administratively, and from a patient-experience standpoint. Choosing a new PMS is a big decision, and we feel confident that CareStack was the right choice for our practice. ----- ### "CareStack: All the Features, None of the Efficiency" — 1.0/5 > **Verified Reviewer** | *8 April 2026* | Hospital & Health Care | Recommendation rating: 0.0/10 > > **Pros**: CareStack offers a high degree of customisation for many smaller or non-essential features, and there are often multiple ways to complete the same task. However, it’s frustrating that while trivial aspects are flexible, fundamental clinical features, such as material colour coding, are not customisable. > > **Cons**: Severe lack of efficiency—basic tasks require excessive clicks, with virtually no keyboard shortcuts. Even simple actions (like confirming entries) can’t be done with Enter, forcing constant mouse use. Basic workflows, especially treatment planning and scheduling, are extremely redundant. To schedule a single treatment, you must: click the tooth → add the code → drag it into a grouped code → right-click to add to clipboard → assign time → assign an operator (despite already being logged in) → select treatment type → save to clipboard. This results in ~8–10 clicks per item. Multiply that across multiple procedures and patients, and it becomes a major time drain. The interface is cluttered, with visual noise and overlapping elements that slow navigation. Charting is also poorly designed—there’s no way to customise material colours. Amalgam, composite, root canal, and crowns are all displayed in the same colour, eliminating any at-a-glance understanding. You’re forced to hover over each tooth individually just to see what treatment was done. Browser limitations further worsen usability—right-click actions are inconsistent and often overridden by the browser’s default menu instead of an in-app one. Support is unreliable. They may call during work hours for minor issues, promise follow-ups during agreed times (e.g. lunch), then not follow through. Bug reporting is inefficient—they ask for explanations and replication steps even when clear screen recordings are already provided. Despite repeated reports, issues remain unresolved even after months. > > As a practicing dentist, my overall experience with CareStack has been consistently frustrating. While it offers flexibility, it lacks the efficiency and intuitive design required for real-world clinical use. Routine tasks like treatment planning and scheduling become unnecessarily time-consuming due to excessive steps and poor workflow logic. The lack of visual clarity in charting and absence of shortcuts further compound the inefficiency, making everyday use tedious. It feels like the software was not designed with actual dentists or clinical workflows in mind. If your practice is considering switching to CareStack, I would strongly advise against it. And if your workplace adopts it—be prepared for a noticeable drop in efficiency and increased daily frustration. ----- ### "Carestack Review Smile Solutions Canastota" — 5.0/5 > **Nikhal** | *9 March 2026* | Health, Wellness & Fitness | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: I liked the all cloud based platform, the visuals of the software, the online booking and texting, the automated reminders built within the system and the automated text messages for reviews. > > **Cons**: Billing was hard to understand and there was a large learning curve in the beginning. Felt like there was too many options and ways about doing things but was made easier once we had enough sessions with carestack employees. Only thing is knowledge of carestack was not uniform amongst their employees. Some knew about how to do things more than others. > > \[sensitive content hidden\] was absolutely wonderful throughout the process of integrating our dental software with CareStack. She made what could have been a complicated transition feel seamless and organized from start to finish. \[sensitive content hidden\] worked closely with our office manager to answer every question and took the time to clearly explain each step to our team, making sure everyone felt comfortable with the new system. Her patience, knowledge, and responsiveness made a huge difference. We truly appreciate her support and professionalism and are grateful for how smoothly she helped make this integration happen. ----- ### "Exceptional Support from Start to Finish" — 5.0/5 > **Courtney** | *27 February 2026* | Medical Practice | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: Ease of finding KPIs that matter and help develop workflows that are useful to our practice. The overall organization from onboarding to analytics and account management, we never felt lost along the way. > > **Cons**: Tickets. Although the team did communicate very quickly and was able to get most problems resolved. Also, treatment planning with dual and tertiary insurance. They rarely show the correct copay. > > 10/10 We are absolutely thrilled with the support we’ve received from the entire team\! Help from our amazing success manager \[sensitive content hidden\] has been exceptional. Always kind, incredibly responsive, and genuinely a joy to work with. Every question was met with patience and clarity, and the teams proactive guidance helped us get up and running quickly and confidently. We truly couldn’t have asked for a better partner in this process and are so grateful for their continued support\! ----- Page: 1 / 9\ Next: [Next page](https://www.softwareadvice.co.uk/software/61103/carestack?page=2) ## Links - [View on SoftwareAdvice](https://www.softwareadvice.co.uk/software/61103/carestack) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | en | | | en-AU | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-NZ | | ----- ## Structured Data
