    Carestream Dental
    PracticeWorks is best suited for a smaller office who wants easy to use software without a lot of bells and whistles. It is very user friendly but is limited with customization options. There are better software systems for an office that wants to incorporate extensive marketing with the software. Overall it is easy to use.

    Although the EHR software industry is still developing, Allscripts has proven to be better than most.

    • Imaging - we also implement Kodak Imaging through PW and it is great.

    Cons
    Carestream Dental
    • The patient handouts such as treatment plans and billing are very outdated looking.
    • Buggy at times
    • Marketing is behind the times. It is very difficult to run email lists for targeted procedures and no way to send an email blast from PW directly.

    • Some of the "canned" reports are wrong. We have reported issues to Allscripts multiple times and they never were interested in fixing the problem.
    • The work and total RVU values that are assigned to each CPT code don't have a reference for the year so we have to keep changing them every year and overwrite the old ones.
    • There is no option to load facility and non-facility values for total RVUs.

    Moving away from paper reports is a little hard at first like ripping off a bandaid, but once you're fully integrated, it's just so much easier to see all your work over time and access reports, schedules, and all pertinent employment information for each patient. Not having to deal with paper files just changes the office completely.

    I'm actually not sure if we call Allscripts support or our own support team with superusers. There never seems to be a problem that can't be fixed right away. The biggest problem you can have is when you start a report when the patient hasn't been checked in. I know how to fix it myself now, but it takes a few minutes with support when you need them to back it out.

    We evaluated Dentrix at the time of purchase. At that time PracticeWorks had bought out our software vendor. We chose to go with Practice Works since they would get a better conversion of our current patients. As time has passed, we have been told Dentrix has more customization options.

    Centricity is much more difficult to get support for in my experience.

    • I am only a user but it's easy to assume that this program is very expensive.
    • Access to reports across all providers is game-changing.
    • Helping the patient navigate care by seeing not just reports but scheduled visits is also a major plus.
