Why Ascend Migration Portal

A migration has a way of finding your blind spots

A rushed conversion means surprise hardware failures, missing balances, and a rough first week. Ascend Migration Portal turns the move into a plan you can actually see progress against.

One guided profile

Answer a short set of questions about your practice once, and Ascend Migration Portal builds a plan tailored to your systems and timeline.

Readiness before go-live

Check your workstations against Ascend's requirements ahead of time, instead of finding gaps the morning you switch on.

Track the whole conversion

Follow your data from extraction through trial conversion review to final go-live, in one place your whole team can see.

Written by people who've done it

The resource library covers the parts other guides skip, imaging fallback plans, running two systems for collections, the week-one productivity dip.

How it works

Six areas, one migration plan

Dashboard

A single view of where your migration actually stands, what's done, what's in progress, and what needs attention next.

Migration Profile

A short guided intake, your current system, locations, and timeline, that shapes the rest of your plan.

Migration Plan

The concrete, ordered plan generated from your profile, so every step has an owner and a place in the timeline.

Data Conversion

Track your data from extraction through a trial conversion review, the step most practices are tempted to rush.

Computer Readiness

Check every workstation against Ascend's hardware and OS requirements before your go-live date is locked in.

Guidance for the parts every migration hits

Balances don't convert automatically. Imaging is the most common go-live failure point. The first week is always slower than you'd like. Ascend Migration Portal's library exists because these problems are predictable, so the guidance for them can be ready before you need it.

  • Organized by migration phase, from planning to go-live
  • Tagged by source system, so guidance matches your setup
  • Written for the practice's whole team, not just IT
FAQ

Common questions

Which practice management systems does this cover?
Ascend Migration Portal has guidance for practices moving to Dentrix Ascend from Dentrix G, Eaglesoft, Open Dental, Curve Dental, Denticon, and PracticeWorks.
I'm already on Dentrix Ascend, do I need this?
No. Ascend Migration Portal is for the move itself. Once you're live on Ascend, Screen Pop and Front Desk are what run your day-to-day front desk.
What does the Computer Readiness check look at?
It checks your practice's workstations against Dentrix Ascend's hardware and OS requirements, so gaps surface while there's still time to fix them, not on your go-live morning.
How do I get access?
Book a demo and we'll set up your organization, or sign in directly if your practice is already set up.
