  • Add more icons
  • Have a tab that you can leave notes for yourself
  • Add an IPR tab to the chart, not just in the aligner tab

Cloud 9 review

Pros

  • It's web based so it's very fast compared to our last practice software.
  • Tech support at Cloud 9 is excellent and always available when you need help.
  • Very user friendly.

Cons

  • I wish the check out process could be a little more simplified.
  • I feel I do a lot more clicking with the mouse with opening and closing screens.
  • When clicking on a patient in the schedule I wish it showed who I'm calling to verify and appointment without opening the patients chart.

Return on Investment

  • A positive impact is it runs smoothly and fast for our fast paced office.
  • I have the tools to run reports to keep up with patients that need scheduling or patients that have been placed on a recall with no appointment.
  • A negative impact for me is the clicking of the mouse. I use it a lot more than before.
