Where Each Platform Excels

Pricing & Value

Deelo starts free with all 50+ apps and upgrades to $19/seat/month. Curve Dental costs $350 - $500+/mo and only covers dental practice. For businesses that need more than one tool, Deelo replaces multiple subscriptions with a single, affordable platform.

Platform Breadth

Curve Dental excels at dental practice with features like digital dental charting with tooth-level detail and treatment planning with procedure tracking. Deelo matches these capabilities and adds CRM, invoicing, scheduling, helpdesk, eCommerce, HR, project management, and 40+ more apps — all connected, all included.

Setup & Learning Curve

Deelo gets most businesses running in under 15 minutes with industry-specific onboarding. Curve Dental also offers a clean setup experience. The difference is that with Deelo, you set up one platform instead of integrating five.

Support & AI

Deelo includes a built-in AI assistant that can answer questions, pull data, and help you navigate across all 50+ apps. Curve Dental may offer support documentation and chat, but it cannot reach into your CRM, invoices, and schedules the way Deelo's integrated assistant can.
