The Myth of “Cheap” In-House Hosting
That server in your back office might seem like the most affordable way to run your dental practice management software. But beneath the surface, hidden costs, from compliance risks to downtime, quietly erode your bottom line.
Whether you rely on Eaglesoft, Dentrix, Open Dental, or a mix of applications, the story is the same: running your systems in-house costs far more than you think.
What Hidden Costs Exist in Dental IT?
The license fee isn’t the full picture. Hosting dental software in-house means paying for:
- Hardware & Upgrades – Servers, routers, and storage that age fast and demand costly replacements.
- Power & Space – Electricity, cooling, and insurance, whether your systems are busy or not.
- Backups & Compliance – HIPAA requires more than a nightly backup, encryption, logging, and audits add complexity.
- Monitoring & Support – A server crash at 3 a.m. doesn’t wait until business hours.
- Downtime & Lost Productivity – Slow logins and outages frustrate staff and delay patient care.
- Opportunity Cost – Every hour spent on IT fires is an hour not spent growing your practice.
What if that “one server in the back office” is secretly costing you thousands every month in hidden labor, risk, downtime, and distraction?
Beyond Eaglesoft: The Bigger Picture
Eaglesoft may be the most recognized name in dental practice management, but the challenges of in-house hosting affect every major platform:
- Dentrix – Deep functionality and integrations, but requires consistent patching and hardware investments.
- Open Dental – Flexible and customizable, but customization increases IT complexity and support demands.
- Imaging & Add-On Tools – From Carestream and Dolphin to billing and accounting plug-ins, every integration adds more moving parts to manage.
No matter the software, the burden of servers, compliance, and downtime risks stays the same.
