Weave or Emitrr: which should you choose?
Both confirm all 14 patient-engagement capabilities we track, phones included, so the choice is about scale, price and risk, not features.
Weave is the established name: 1,372 public reviews averaging 4.5, a published starting price of $199 a month and a company of 500 to 1,000 people. Its weak point in reviews is service (3.9 out of 5) and phone stability, which matters because Weave also replaces your phone system.
Emitrr starts $50 lower ($149 a month, with a per-user tier at $249), documents 12 practice-management integrations to Weave's seven, states that it signs a BAA and scores 4.8, but on only 25 reviews and a team of 25 to 50. That is a thin base to judge reliability on.
Both document Dentrix, Dentrix Ascend, Open Dental, Eaglesoft, Curve Dental and Dolphin Imaging. Weave adds SoftDent; Emitrr adds Denticon, Dentrix Enterprise, PracticeWorks, ABELDent, ClearDent and DentiMax. If you will move your phone numbers, ask each for references from practices of your size that have used the phones for more than a year. Full reviews: Weave.
