Detailed Review
solutio presents charly as the centre of a connected dental practice. The vendor lists variants for single practices, group practices and MVZ or clinic structures, plus a page for founders.
Its charly Abo is a plan that bundles modules, interfaces and e-health functions, so a practice does not pay a large one-off sum.
Subscription instead of a licence
The Abo page says there are no high one-off costs and that modules, interfaces and e-health functions are included. The vendor argues this protects liquidity at start-up or expansion.
Away from the practice PC
charly-Web, the charly assistant and task management are listed as the additions that make staff less dependent on the fixed workstation.
Add-ons
Separate modules cover analytics, anamnesis, documents and factoring, and the company runs seminars, e-learning and coaching packages.
Limitations to Consider
The Abo page lists no euro figures. The pages reviewed do not state where charly-Web data is hosted. The contracting party is a limited partnership (GmbH & Co. KG), so check who signs. As with EVIDENT, the product is built for German billing only.
Who Should Use charly
German practices, group practices and MVZ that want a monthly plan and the option to work outside the practice PC.
