DentalHQ is dental membership plan software with custom plans, automated email and SMS invitations, PPO break-even modeling, and group and multi-location workflows.
Buy DentalHQ if your business
wants the lowest base subscription and is comfortable with management and merchant fees charged to patients.
Buy BoomCloud™ if your business
wants the plan run as a growth program: published practice-side fees, launch help, and on Pro a dedicated success rep and Patient Marketplace listing — accepting a higher fixed monthly cost.
Compare the selected plan scope, the workflow your team will actually run, written total fees, agreement terms and relevant customer proof. Both vendors describe meaningful plan, growth and multi-location capabilities; the useful decision is which documented offer fits your practice.

Last reviewed October 5, 2026. Vendor capabilities and pricing are summarized from the linked public vendor information; BoomCloud pricing is from its public pricing page; customer examples are BoomCloud-published case evidence. Offers, options and agreement terms vary, so confirm the selected scope and written total fees directly.
Before planning a move, review the existing agreement, available exports, renewal dates, stored-payment transfer requirements and the exact records each vendor can provide. A migration walkthrough can map those facts, but continuity and transfer scope should not be assumed before that review.
DentalHQ's rendered enrollment page shows DHQ Pro at $109/month/location and DHQ Pro + PMS at $199/month/location. It says management and merchant fees are charged to patients, but their amounts are not shown there; confirm those amounts for an all-in comparison. BoomCloud's published cost at 300 active members is still the flat subscription: $197/month on Basic or $397/month on Pro. Per-member fees and standard card processing of 2.9% + $0.30 per transaction are built into the dues members pay, never billed to the practice. Pro includes the Dedicated Success Rep and Patient Marketplace; multi-location uses a custom annual agreement with volume pricing. Do not compare DentalHQ's base subscription alone with BoomCloud's platform-plus-member total as if both were all-in costs.
One question to ask DentalHQ
“What will the practice and each patient pay under the selected plan, including management, merchant, processing and implementation charges?”
Switching from DentalHQ
Use the migration walkthrough to review the existing agreement, available exports, renewal dates, stored-payment transfer requirements and vendor responsibilities. The schedule and transfer scope depend on that due diligence; uninterrupted billing and universal CSV portability are not promised.
