### 1/5 — Disappointed

*2022-05-19*

Very annoying app requires previous version of iOS and its don’t work probably

### 5/5 — Excellent

*2020-12-29*

I have been using the iOptima int for almost a year.  I love the flexibility and the intuitive controls.  It’s so easy to slide the handpiece speed up or down, or scroll through my preprograms.  I found no other unit that can seamlessly add a surgical motor and use the same interface.  My patients have commented on how advanced it looks.  I have the control iPad connected to my Adec delivery unit with the Bien Air custom holder for adec.  It looks as if it was made to be there.  It’s very professional, unlike other  manufacturers who’s control units are boxes that have to sit on a counter or be taped to the delivery unit.

I am very happy with this investment and would highly recommend it.

### 5/5 — Bien-Air

*2019-10-02*

Great app and easy to use!

### 4/5 — Optima in all my operatories

*2019-05-27*

There was a learning curve but works well and is very customizable. Th
See units are built into Forest Units. One design change; I would have liked the water option to be on the iPad as well as the foot switch.

### 1/5 — Poor connection ...STILL

*2018-03-09*

Handpiece still has connection issues with update. It is VERY annoying that I have to fight with the handpiece and iPod for 5-10 minutes before it starts running the handpiece.
