Fantastic Experience! **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Amanda E. | Office Manager, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) **Reviewed Date:** May 27, 2025 **What do you like best about ABELDent?** The support team and trainers at Abel Dent are in my opinion, the very best. We recently transitioned from version 14 to Local + and my team and I were thrilled with the organization and training provided. Our trainer Kimberly was knowledgeable, kind and funny. She made long training sessions fly by and we all absorbed the information very well because it wasn't boring. Abel Dent allowed us unlimited training for a lengthy period and that was much appreciated. They provided guidance and gave feedback. 10/10 **What do you dislike about ABELDent?** There isn't much I or my team dislike about Abel Dent. The new version is amazing. **What problems is ABELDent solving and how is that benefiting you?** Their program makes it easy to manage our dental practice. ### 7. Abel Dent Version 15 support was wonderful. Kim was an amazing help with support & transition **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Sue C. | Front Desk, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** May 06, 2025 **What do you like best about ABELDent?** Customer support Ease of Implementation Number of features **What do you dislike about ABELDent?** No address for Insurance companies/ reactivate hidden insurance **What problems is ABELDent solving and how is that benefiting you?** Payments ### 8.

Still getting use to where things are. **What problems is ABELDent solving and how is that benefiting you?** Creating a user friendly software for the entire office ### 9. Wonderful support from Customer Rep Kimberley Melbourne! **Rating:** 4.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Gail W. | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) **Reviewed Date:** December 18, 2023 **What do you like best about ABELDent?** We recently transitioned our practice from one dentist to another. Kimberely was extremely supportive throughout this process. She was intuitive, thorough, organized and knowledgeable. We have been with Abeldent since 1991 and have had very few issues or problems that were not easily resolved. Working with people like Kimberely builds confidence in our knowledge that we have chosen the correct software company for our diverse and growing dental practice. **What do you dislike about ABELDent?** All software packages come with inherent quirks that are unique to that particular software. We are confident that if we were to try other dental software packages, there would be a "wish list" of must haves. For the purpose of efficiently running our dental practice, Abeldent has met all of our business needs. **What problems is ABELDent solving and how is that benefiting you?** There are issues with the medications tab. There are also a few problems with the numbers of contacts sorted in the treatment manager. We have had problems in the past where customer support can not resolve an issue and need to "escalate" the question. Sometimes, "escalation" means we do not hear back. **Official Response from Derek McCrone:** > Thank you for taking the time to review ABELDent, our all in one dental software! We value your long-time use of our practice management software since 1991, and we appreciate your in-depth review of our software and services. Kimberley has emailed you and provided solutions regarding ABELDent’s medications tab and treatment manager.

Many years with Abeldent **Rating:** 4.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Melissa A. | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) **Reviewed Date:** April 18, 2024 **What do you like best about ABELDent?** We have used Abeldent for over two decades and are very used to the program. Even when we upgraded last year to a newer version we had an easy time re-training. **What do you dislike about ABELDent?** Some of the new program updates are different from previous versions so we have made requests to bring back some older features that we found helpful. **What problems is ABELDent solving and how is that benefiting you?** Daily practice software that we use for scheduling, billing and charting. **Official Response from Derek McCrone:** > Thank you for reviewing ABELDent on G2! We appreciate you giving us detailed and constructive feedback, and we value your long-time use of our practice management solution. We are pleased to hear about your positive experience upgrading to our new version of ABELDent.

It Will Do. **Rating:** 3.5/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Adrian B. | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) **Reviewed Date:** November 24, 2020 **What do you like best about ABELDent?** It is reliable software if you are performing core functions day in and day out. It doesn't crash or freeze often. It also isn't a major memory hog. Changes to the day's schedule can be made relatively quickly, but other software still excel in this area more than Abeldent. **What do you dislike about ABELDent?** This software was created a long time ago when cloud functionality was not on the radar. As a result, I find that trying to include that type of functionality is not a seamless or easy fit. It is also lacking in advanced reporting features that other software has, or that third-party integrations with Abeldent can provide. I also find the interface really dated and it isn't super intuitive to use to run reports as other software. The interface looks like something coming out from 90's software. **Recommendations to others considering ABELDent:** I would only consider this software if you plan on keeping all your data internal and have no dreams for cloud backups, cloud file retrieval from off-site, no need for online forms that can sync with dental software to capture patient information. Basically, if you don't want to join the future, this software is for you. **What problems is ABELDent solving and how is that benefiting you?** Having a reliable software for regular day in, day out processing. The benefits are that you save time by not having to troubleshoot issues all the time since it really limits you in terms of what kind of functionality you can accomplish. There is no online portal that is full-featured to worry about. **Official Response from Derek McCrone:** > We appreciate your comments regarding your experience with ABELDent. We only recently came upon your review as we have not specifically monitored the G2 site. Based on your comments, it seems that your experience is with older versions of ABELDent that had their roots in the 1980s or 1990s. In recent years we have developed new, modern versions of ABELDent, taking advantage of modern technologies, including cloud technologies. If you are looking for modern dental software for your practice, we encourage you to consider our modern options, ABELDent Cloud and ABELDent Local+, among your options. Our current software includes many new features and improvements, including online forms, cloud backups, online payments, patient self-booking, and advanced reporting and analytics. In addition, our new software has improved navigation and a fresh new user interface. We think you would find our new versions to be a major improvement compared to the basic ABELDent software you describe in your review. Thank you for your review, and we hope to hear from you in the future. ### 13. Very Dated Software - Leaves Much To Be Desired **Rating:** 3.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Verified User in Hospital & Health Care | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) **Reviewed Date:** May 04, 2020 **What do you like best about ABELDent?** There is almost nothing to like, but if I had to pick something I would say that it is easy to learn the absolute basics of it. **What do you dislike about ABELDent?** - Very old software with infrequent updates that aren't that great - Old looking user interface - Speed of software varies even though no significant network changes have been made - Difficult to run extensive reports, quite limited in functionality - No easy online cloud implementation or website implementation for patients to complete forms online and be synced with Abeldent. - Dated charting system It is such a dated and low-end software in the industry that even when you want to jump ship, many new dental software cannot easily import its records or database. **Recommendations to others considering ABELDent:** I would look at a fully cloud solution, or a solution that has cloud functionality. This software is quite dated and not easily equipped for an ever changing landscape of security and privacy laws. The system requirements are a bit much too considering that this is not very powerful software. If you ever want to leave Abel and switch to another company later, it is near impossible because there is no seamless transfer of data. The support cost s are also very high compared to other software. **What problems is ABELDent solving and how is that benefiting you?** Keeping uptime going at our organization by not replacing it yet is the only benefit that has been achieved so far. All staff are trained using it, so it cannot be switched out that easily, so that is another reason it is kept. **Official Response from Derek McCrone:** > Thank you for your review of our ABELDent software. We only recently came upon your review as we have not previously monitored the G2 site. Based on your comments, we believe that your experience is with an older version of our ABELDent. Since we have been providing software to dentists since 1985, your comments may be a fair representation of our older versions compared to today's software. In recent years, ABELDent released two new versions, ABELDent Cloud and ABELDent Local+. These new products include countless improvements over older versions, including the use of cloud technologies. The new versions also feature improved security, frequent updates, and a learning management system. If you are in need of new software, we encourage you to consider our new software alongside any other products you may be looking at. I think that you will find that they compare well to other top options. Again, thank you for your review, and if there is anything that we can do for you, please let us know. ## ABELDent Discussions - [What is ABELDent used for?](https://www.g2.com/discussions/what-is-abeldent-used-for) - [Is anyone using this software's forms on their website?](https://www.g2.com/discussions/26846-is-anyone-using-this-software-s-forms-on-their-website) - [View ABELDent pricing details and edition comparison](https://www.g2.com/products/abeldent/reviews?section=pricing&secure%5Bexpires_at%5D=2026-06-02+16%3A00%3A52+-0500&secure%5Bsession_id%5D=63e19d5b-cd65-40f5-ac98-9db0bb001ed3&secure%5Btoken%5D=d4755c41ee588130951db71d90cc94db2f9d7fd9da46c482a3d3c22697c68e60&format=llm_user) ## ABELDent Integrations - [Carestream Dental Imaging](https://www.g2.com/products/carestream-dental-imaging/reviews) - [DEXIS Imaging Suite](https://www.g2.com/products/dexis-imaging-suite/reviews) ## ABELDent Features **Administrative Tools** - Insurance and Billing - Appointment Scheduling - Business Intelligence and Reporting - Document Management - Workflows **Financial Tools** - Accounting - Payment Processing **Clinical Tools** - Treatment Planning - Patient Portal - Patient Engagement - Dental Imaging - e-Prescribing ## Top ABELDent Alternatives - [Carepatron](https://www.g2.com/products/carepatron/reviews) - 4.5/5.0 (485 reviews) - [Curve Dental](https://www.g2.com/products/curve-dental-curve-dental/reviews) - 4.6/5.0 (264 reviews) - [CareStack](https://www.g2.com/products/carestack/reviews) - 4.7/5.0 (180 reviews)
