CloudLIMS - A perfect LIMS solution for commercial biobanks!
Great product, Great experience!
PROSWhat we like best about CloudLIMS is the product functionality and perseverance of the CloudLIMS team in addressing our challenging needs. The feature that stands out for us is the ability to track the complete genealogy of samples and manage patient data, including patients' consent. With this feature, we can trace the history of each sample easily, including the patient from whom it was collected, the condition of the patient at the time of collection, etc. The product also enables us to meet ISO 20387 compliance requirements with ease. The team's support during our evaluation process was excellent, and they answered all our questions satisfactorily. We conducted thorough testing before purchasing the product. Our entire team, including C-level executives, participated in the evaluation process, and we were impressed with the product's full capabilities.
CONSOur experience has been nothing but positive.
Reason for choosing CloudLIMS
Our biorepository is mainly comprised of biospecimens from cancer patients, including blood, tumor, adjacent normal tissue, adipose tissue, and urine. Our partner hospitals in India collect these samples, which are then processed and stored at our facility. One of our biggest challenges was to track the genealogy of each sample and provide our clients with all the necessary information. To ensure the efficient delivery of samples to researchers from academia and industry, it is crucial for us to have a reliable system that can manage and track the information associated with each sample. CloudLIMS helped us overcome these operational hurdles effortlessly. The software's user-friendly interface has enabled our team to adapt to it quickly, and the excellent customer support provided by the CloudLIMS team has been invaluable in addressing any issues we faced

CloudLIMs for Biobanking
Implementation of a LIMS application is never easy or seamless, it takes a lot of time and refinement. It may have been difficult at the very beginning, but the support team has always been patient, responsive, and supportive in our years as customers.
PROSCloudLIMs is highly configurable on multiple levels so no matter what operations your facility is running, it's likely CloudLIMS can achieve your operational needs. They have great customer service and technical support, ensuring customers feel comfortable and competent to use the application. CloudLIMS is also extremely accessible since it is cloud-based, so as long as you have internet, you have full usability of the application. With the Enterprise version, it offers a lot of other features for our operations to keep track of our different research studies, inventory, training documents, and other legal documents.
CONSThere are some minor setbacks with CloudLIMS that I am optimistic can be achieved in the future. The arrangement of some columns to be customizable, the selection of hide/view options for attributes between different types to be applied across the board, the editing/creation of attributes to be applied across the multiple types, are just a couple of examples. However, I will say that CloudLIMS seems to always be receptive of feedback like this from customers and take it to their product management team to further improve their product.
Reason for choosing CloudLIMS
Low costs and better accessibility.

CloudLIMS in a chemistry lab
CloudLIMS is used daily in work for logging all samples, tests, and to generate test reports. CloudLIMS was implemented in the lab to allow a management system to have all tests in one area where sample numbers could be assigned and testing tracked alongside this. The software makes this clear to see and enables ease of uses for managing workflow of samples received.
CONSCloudLMIS has a large customer base, so when contacting customer support although they respond quickly to queries it can take some time for resolution of issues or for new features to be implemented.

Excelent LIMS
Excellent, they are a great team handling an excellent product.
PROSAt Lifted Testing Laboratories we specialize in testing cannabinoid content across a variety of products, from raw plant materials to edibles and cosmetics. Our choice in selecting a LIMS centered in several key requirements specific to a lab serving the cannabis industry. We require full control of a sample’s chain of custody, the capability to import data directly from the analytical instrument and provide corresponding calculations, and the generation of certificates of analysis compliant with governmental regulations. CloudLIMS is our chosen system not only because it provides these important functions, but because its flexibility also allowed us the implementation of online logbooks and inventory control - functions essential to facilitating a holistic approach in a lab’s systems.More importantly, CloudLIMS' client service is without rival; a dedicated team assisted us across all implementation and training processes. Designed in a flexible platform, the support team was able to adapt CloudLIMS at a preliminary stage to our particular needs and continues to respond promptly to new developments. Their knowledge, dedication, and commitment to our success makes CloudLIMS an outstanding management system in this highly competitive industry.
CONSThe adaptation of CloudLIMS to our particular needs took some time, but their customer service and IT team were there during the entire process

A feature-rich LIMS and an exceptionally dedicated team
We are truly amazed to see the capabilities and versatility of CloudLIMS. Specifically, we are impressed with its ability to trace the entire genealogy of our samples in our organization, allowing us to easily track sample and donor data effortlessly. We are happy that our organization is now equipped with a powerful tool that not only helps us meet the demands of our clients but also meets the stringent compliance requirements compliance. We believe this will greatly improve our efficiency and enable us to serve our customers better. Furthermore, we were pleased with the support provided by the CloudLIMS team during the multiple meetings we had with them, where they walked us through the various features of the product. Throughout the evaluation process, our team and C-level executives were involved and had many questions and concerns, all of which were addressed satisfactorily by the CloudLIMS team.

Flexible Life Science LIMS
Colibri Scientific have a requirement to track a wide range of sample types, including monitoring transport between clinic and laboratory. The facility to provide clients with a login enable 'live' visibility as soon as a patient sample is taken has significantly reduced project manager input for reconciliation queries. The CloudLIMS team have been amazing at adapting this software to meet our individual needs and can highly recommend as a tracking solution for multi centre Clinical Trials.
PROSCost effective due to monthly subscription without commitment. Adaptable software to optimise for particular business requirements.
CONSCons have never been cons for long as the CloudLIMS team have constantly worked hard to overcome any issue and upgraded the software to fit our Clinical Trials environment.

CloudLIMS saved us
The ability to log sample storage locations and keep up to date inventory on our samples saved us so much time and effort. CloudLIMs is easy to use once you know how things work and their customer support is top notch.
CONSI find that I need to ask how to do some things because they are not as intuitive as you would think. This is normal for many LIMs systems I have used in the past. Any time I needed help on how to do things customer service has always been very quick to help me learn.
Reason for choosing CloudLIMS
We did look at other products but the price of CloudLIMS was what drove the decision to choose them.

Data tracking, preserving data regarding our samples. Ensuring that we adhere to protocol. Monitoring samples as we go through the procedure. It is quicker and more precise.
PROSIn order to conduct virtual research, CloudLIMS is committed to helping you organize your study utilizing cutting-edge technologies. Their objective is to offer a flexible, affordable, and safe alternative. It is fully powered by cloud computing. Managing a central system is the least of your worries due to the seamless and integrated workflows that free scientists to concentrate on their research and innovation. Personal management dashboards that make it simple for users to access critical performance information and task status. finalizing and distributing updated reports using the recipient's specified distribution mechanism.
CONSThere isn't much to criticize. I discovered that learning how to customize CloudLims could be difficult for beginners. I don't need or fully understand a handful of the options. Because there were so many options, I found it difficult to go in and customize forms or presentations, for example. I wish there was a default setting where those things could be turned off or hidden.

CloudLIMS managing Data, samples and storage
My experience with CloudLIMS is good, above average. The reason why I say this is that there are some issues, takes time to do the setup/implement and bugs that occur. But the software, customer service and the ability of customization is great. CloudLIMS has great potential to carry out all your basic task and become a better application especially because the people that work there listen to the customers and try to make it better for them.

Insight on CloudLIMS as a Microscopist and Herbarium Specialist
It has potential to be the best in LIMS but needs more work to make it happen.
PROSI like how everything is online and easily access to all my data, information, samples, and inventories.
CONSI feel like there should be support 24/7 on helping to edit or modify the CloudLIMS website so we can make CloudLIMS more customizable for all consumers. I feel at the moment LIMS is still better in workflow efficiency than CloudLIMS until we fully customize CloudLIMS in our favor.

'An affordable LIMS managing multiple labs workflows'
We are very pleased to use BioTracer for managing multi-lab work-flows involving the collection of several different types of samples. With BioTracer's enhanced user group management and the unique configuration module, we could accommodate diverse work flows of six different types of labs into one single product. The access level control helps us manage data integrity. The complimentary data migration services were a big plus for us. It took the onus of uploading all the data off our shoulders and enabled us to get started with BioTracer without dedicated staff. I recommend BioTracer to whoever needs a LIMS solution for the life sciences.
