DentalHQ alternative: BoomCloud™ vs DentalHQ
DentalHQ is a dental membership plan platform offering plan setup, member billing, and a flat-fee pricing approach.
Buy DentalHQ if your business
is a risk-averse solo practice that wants the smallest commitment possible and values a state-association endorsement.
Buy BoomCloud™ if your business
treats the membership plan as a revenue pillar rather than a side experiment.
A flat fee gets paid whether your program grows or stalls. Our revenue only rises when your members do — which is why enrollment campaigns, the Patient Marketplace and a Success rep are included, not upsold.

BoomCloud™ vs DentalHQ, side by side
| DentalHQ | BoomCloud™ | |
|---|---|---|
| Who owns the member relationship | Varies by platform — some route members through a branded network | Your practice. Your brand, your plan, your patient list, exportable any time. |
| Recurring billing & renewals | Included | Included — monthly or annual, auto-renew, dunning, and receipts handled for you |
| PPO drop modeling | Not a stated focus | Model members needed to replace each PPO contract before you terminate |
| Reporting depth | Membership reporting | Live MRR/ARR, churn, retention, member vs non-member production |
| Pricing model | Check their current pricing page | Flat software fee plus a per-member fee designed to be built into membership dues to support security, service, capacity, and member features as they scale — see /pricing |
| Who is accountable for enrollment | You are — the software bills whoever signs up | A Success rep owns your member target, with enrollment campaigns and the Patient Marketplace included |
| What happens as you grow | Check how their fee behaves at 300 members before you sign | The per-member portion is built into membership dues, so the program funds its own capacity as it scales |
| Contract and exit | Confirm contract length and what happens to your member list on exit | Month to month, 30-day free trial, no setup fee — and every member leaves with you |

Built for your vertical
A percentage of plan revenue is a tax on your own growth
Their published model is a low flat monthly fee plus a percentage of membership plan revenue — check the current percentage on their pricing page. Run it at the size you want to be: a single-digit percentage of a $17,500/month plan is several hundred dollars a month, and every member you add raises it. BoomCloud is flat plus a per-member fee designed to be built into membership dues, published at $197 + $4.50 (Basic) and $397 + $3.50 (Pro). A revenue share beats a flat fee only while the plan stays small.
One question to ask DentalHQ
“What is that percentage of the membership revenue you want in year three?”
