Dental practice management software serving 3,200+ practices across five countries
solutio GmbH runs CHARLY, a desktop and cloud-based practice-management platform for dentists, deployed across over 3,200 dental practices with 27,000 licenses. The tech stack reflects a transitional architecture: Java/Spring Boot microservices with REST/OpenAPI interfaces, but infrastructure still anchored in Windows Server and on-premise virtualization (Hyper-V, VMware). Active projects signal modernization pressure — infrastructure-as-code (Terraform/Ansible), cloud service integration, and a system-wide architecture migration — while pain points center on legacy system complexity and operational automation gaps.
solutio GmbH develops CHARLY, a dental practice-management platform that handles scheduling, material inventory, treatment planning, and billing for dentist-operated practices. Founded in 1992, the company has spent 25+ years co-developing with dental practitioners across Germany, Austria, Switzerland, and neighboring markets. With 100 employees and steady hiring across engineering, sales, and support, solutio competes as one of the top three practice-management vendors in Germany. The platform manages core workflows for practice operations and is supported by a dedicated training and customer-success function.
