Cloud Technology
Anyone in business today has no doubt heard of cloud technology. “Are you in the cloud?” “Do you have cloud backups?” “Is your software cloud compatible?” Cloud seems like a buzzword, but at the end of the day, it is the way of the future.
When it comes to a dental practice, the right implementation of cloud technology can bring about significant benefits. It can enhance availability, speed, security, redundancy, and the ability to work from home with ease. It also reduces the reliance on the latest workstations and servers, offering a host of other advantages.
A Dental practice has many options when it comes to cloud technology. There are pros and cons to every one of them and even some that may affect the very way you manage your practice. You might benefit from always having the latest version of the software, but you also lose control of the data and how you handle end-of-month closeouts, etc, in the process.
Consider this: you might be able to work from home without any special utilities, but what about the rest of your documents and programs that are only available on your office network? Or, you might be able to see one patient in multiple offices, but what about their images? These are the practical questions that arise when considering cloud technology in a dental practice.
You might have a particular sensor or panoramic unit, but can you also move those imaging solutions into the cloud? You might have a portable drive or a NAS in your office for backups, and maybe your friend showed you some cloud backup solution that he found on Google, but what about it? Are they fast? Are they HIPAA compliant? Can they get your data to you in a day, a week, or a month? Will they charge you to retrieve your data? That’s a lot for a busy Dental practice to navigate.
