Synology DS918+ in test with EagleSoft, Dentrix and OpenDental

Synology Dental Case Study

In our last blog found here, we discussed securing data at dental offices. One option is an on and off site NAS (Network Attached Storage) from Synology, our partner at Siligent. I wanted to delve a little deeper into this option and the benefits of owning your own cloud from the perspective of a satisfied Synology customer at Heartland Dental.

Synology has worked with several medical and dental market leaders to provide a solution to their data backup needs. One of the reasons Synology is often highlighted is their ability to offer a high performance HIPAA compliant solution.

“In just one package, we were able to meet our performance and HIPAA compliance requirements with the DS916+.” - Josh Gilmore, Enterprise Administrator

Heartland Dental selected Synology after doing research because of the integrated solution that Synology presented:

“The Synology DiskStation DS916+ met our requirements in regards to throughput, security, ease of setup, and reliability… The DS916+ met our HIPAA requirements to store patient data in an encrypted volume.”    

Backing up off site with a paired Synology NAS can also help defend against natural disasters or ransomware threats by replicating data to the off site location using Snapshot replica and Hyper backup programs. At Siligent, we have chosen to partner with Synology because together we offer a solution that is robust, secure, and cost effective when compared to paying for years of subscription fees. Their innovations together with our expertise in understanding hardware and how it ties in to dental software will ensure that your data is safe and secure for your practice. Set up a consult with us to help you find a backup solution that works for your dental office.
