Comparison
Installed software still works. It just stopped being maintained.
Most Indian clinics running software are running something installed on one machine at the front desk, bought years ago. It does the job it was bought for. What it does not do is change.
| legacy desktop software | Dently | |
|---|---|---|
| Reliability today | Proven. It has run for years. | Newer, and honest about that. |
| Access from a second room | That machine, or a remote-desktop workaround. | Any device on the clinic network, and off it. |
| Backups | Whatever someone set up once. | Continuous, off-site, restorable. |
| Updates | A paid version bump, if one still ships. | Continuous, included. |
| Getting your data out | Often a proprietary file nobody will read. | CSV and a structured export, on demand, free. |
The question is not whether the old system works. It is what happens the day it does not, and who is left to fix it.
