Who it’s for

Practices that want Australian-built cloud with claiming handled properly.

What Praktika costs

No published pricingchecked2026-08-01

Praktika does not publish a price. You have to request a quote, which means you cannot budget or compare before speaking to a salesperson. There is a pricing page, but it carries no figure.

We do not repeat third-party price estimates for quote-only vendors. Several widely republished figures in this category turned out to belong to a different product — see how we compare.

“Not stated” means the vendor does not say either way on its public site. We do not infer capability that isn’t documented.

What it does well

  • Genuinely cloud-native and Australian-built, rather than a desktop product moved onto a server.
  • Claiming is tightly wired: health fund and Medicare rebates plus EFTPOS lodged directly from the appointment through HICAPS.
  • Imaging is native rather than a separate licence.

Where it falls short

  • No published pricing, despite having a page for it.
  • Smaller installed base than Dental4Windows, so fewer peers to ask and fewer third-party integrations.
  • Little public detail on the newer patient-facing features.

Next step

Prices and features move. Before you commit, confirm the current figure with Praktika directly, and ask specifically what is not in the base price — that is where budgets slip in this category.
