ZenOne vs. Net32

Both ZenOne and Net32 can lower supply costs, but the workflow is very different. ZenOne is an all-in-one platform for private practices and growing groups: budgets, approvals, and consistent pricing in one place.

Net32 is often used for one-off items from many third-party sellers, which can mean split orders, separate shipments, and longer timelines. If you want consolidated ordering and predictable oversight, ZenOne is the more practice-first option.

ZenOne vs Net32, Side by Side

Both platforms help dental practices purchase supplies, but they’re designed for very different workflows. ZenOne is built for practices that want a centralized, predictable ordering experience, while Net32 focuses more on sourcing individual items across multiple sellers.

Complete Supply Coverage vs. Marketplace Limitations

ZenOne

“Full supply coverage, without switching how you buy.”

ZenOne is built for private and multi-location practices that need supplies across every specialty.

Order clinical and operational items in one place, with budgets and approvals built in. Keep your preferred vendors and reps, but stop bouncing between logins and spreadsheets.

Net32

“Marketplace shopping, mostly for everyday disposables.”

Net32 can be a solid option if you mostly order consumables and disposables and want a marketplace-style experience.

But if you need broader category coverage and consistent controls (like approvals and budgets) across locations, a marketplace setup can start to feel limiting.

Want a quick benchmark? The ADA’s rule of thumb is that inventory costs should be no more than 4% of collections.

The Four Major Differences Between ZenOne and Net32

ZenOne is an ordering platform first

ZenOne cuts ordering time, lets you buy from your preferred suppliers, and keeps all orders in one place.

Example:Dr. Brandon Johnson (Brushy Creek Dentistry) used to spend hours price-hunting on eBay, Net32, and Amazon. With ZenOne, he saved about 20% on $10,000/month in supplies: roughly $2,000/month back to the bottom line.

Freedom to choose across suppliers and specialties

ZenOne: Unauthorized listings are clearly labeled.
Net32: Marketplace structure with vendor-by-vendor offers; authorization isn’t a universal label.

Clarity of authorization

ZenOne starts at $49/location/month with no long-term contracts. It helps you save by comparing vendors with shipping, while keeping your preferred reps – all in one system.With Net32, pricing for individual offices isn’t clear and shipping isn’t always included in comparisons, so it’s harder to know if you’re truly getting the best deal.

Shipping transparency

ZenOne: Upfront shipping visibility; often free shipping depending on supplier.
Net32: vendor thresholds + shipping vary; Net32 also documents “heavy shipping surcharges” for items that require special handling.

Transparency Matters

For software that sits between your practice and your dental suppliers, trust really matters. At ZenOne, that starts with letting you see what other practices actually think of us.

Our Google profile currently shows a 5.0-star rating, and you can read every review in full. Nothing hidden, nothing hand-picked. If you’re comparing dental inventory ordering software, we’d rather you judge us by real experiences from real offices, not marketing spin.
