Are you about to invest in I.T?
Whatever the size of your dental practice, it is probable that one day you will computerise.If your practice is planning to purchase a computer system, please take good look at Merlin Professional - it won't cost you a penny to install and to evaluate.

Merlin in a Nutshell
Merlin Professional has all the functions a dental practice will use, packed for ease of use and flexibility. Merlin's straightforward approach makes it easy to learn, so even beginners to computing and new staff pick it up quickly.Designed to work with other Windows applications, which you may already have, we are convinced that Merlin Professional is the easiest Microsoft Windows-compatible system in Britain. Of course different practices have different needs. After working with practitioners throughout Scotland, we have adopted a simple, yet unique, philosophy:
"What you need is what you get!"
Practical Features vs 'Featuritis'
Many companies stuff their software with things a dentist in Scotland will rarely use. Others provide features such as word processors, which are not a patch on the applications they replace. We call this 'featuritis'.Merlin Professional is a practical, real world addition to your dental practice. Whilst it is feature-packed, it does not suffer from 'featuritis'. We know that each practice has its individual needs, but we also know that there is no point in paying for things you don't need or might never use.Perhaps the single most important benefit of Merlin Professional is that you can start with a reception-based system, then add on more as your needs grow and you become more familiar with Merlin.Whether you are considering a single user reception-based system, or are looking for an all singing, all dancing, networked clinical application, you will find Merlin Professional:
"Simple…...Straightforward…...Safe…...Supported"
