Pricing, side by side

Dentally

No published pricingchecked2026-08-01

Dentally does not publish a price. You have to request a quote, which means you cannot budget or compare before speaking to a salesperson. Dentally has a dedicated Canadian pricing page headed “Affordable pricing for every dental practice”, listing Standard, Advanced and Advanced+ tiers in a feature table — and no figure anywhere on it. Both buttons go to Contact sales. The same vendor publishes full prices on its UK page.

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.

Strengths and trade-offs

Dentally

Strengths

  • True cloud with CDAnet claims and predeterminations handled natively.
  • Backed by Henry Schein One, so it is not going away and the integration marketplace is large.
  • Sold across several countries, which usually means the platform gets sustained investment.

Trade-offs

  • Publishes a pricing page with three named tiers and no prices on it — you cannot compare it on cost without a sales call.
  • Tier boundaries are described by feature list, so which tier you actually need is decided in the sales conversation.
  • Newer in Canada than the entrenched local systems, so fewer peers to ask.

Tracker

Strengths

  • Claims support is the most explicitly documented of any Canadian system here: CDAnet version 4, ITRANS 2.0 and EDI attachments are all named.
  • Canadian company with a long track record — in the market since 1993.
  • Contactless payments and eServices patient communication are part of the product rather than a third-party bolt-on.

Trade-offs

  • No published pricing, and no pricing page to request one from.
  • The site does not state whether the product is cloud or on-premise, which is the first question a buyer should be able to answer.
  • Imaging appears to rely on integration rather than a native module.
