No incentive was offered One of the best Medical Lab Software used in hospitals and other reference laboratories. Easy to use and adaptable to your organization's needs. #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 5/5 - Value for money: 5/5 - Customer support: 5/5 - Functionality: 5/5 #### Pros Working in a government hospital, Been using this software 5 years now and this APEX LIS became our bestfriend in our workplace. It is very helpful especially when you are in health care industry. From order entry, specimen storage, data security and more. Files are safe and secure. #### Cons It is confusing at first. So glad we had training for this software. Still a 10/10 for me. --- ### Great Support Behind The Product - Overall rating: 5/5 - Reviewer: David D. - Verified reviewer: Yes - Industry: Medical Practice - Company size: 201-500 employees - Product usage: Used daily for more than 2 years - Reviewed: May 2019 - Review source details: This review was submitted organically. No incentive was offered When I was brought on as the IT Director, this app was the biggest open issue. After doing some testing I found that our ISP latency response time was extremely high thus being the underlying issue with the app communicating with our cloud server. Called and had a discussion with Oscar, we had a test console deployed into our Citrix environment that evening and began testing the next day. Console ran like a champ and my staff couldn't be more thankful! #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 5/5 - Value for money: 5/5 - Customer support: 5/5 - Functionality: 5/5 #### Pros For the price it's really hard to beat. Anytime we have any issue we are able to get a tech on the phone and get the issue resolved in a timely manner. #### Cons Sometimes devices stop communicating and the system needs to be rebooted. We've put in a process to simply reboot the workstation every evening and this seems to have minimized this issue. #### Vendor response Thank you for your kind review its a pleasure to be of service to Legacy ER Replied May 2019 --- ### Apex sucks! Unprofessional answer...... yes. Truthful?.......Absolutely - Overall rating: 1/5 - Reviewer: Shane H. - Industry: Hospital & Health Care - Company size: 11-50 employees - Product usage: Used daily for more than 2 years - Reviewed: August 2016 - Review source details: This review was submitted organically. No incentive was offered Apex had good customer service initially, in fact I referred several other clinics to them in the first year after opening in 2009. At first they seemed very responsive to our clinic needs, however, over the years they have gone significantly downhill. As in I don't think customer service could get any worse. #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 3/5 - Value for money: 1/5 - Customer support: 1/5 - Functionality: 1/5 #### Pros Most of the time Apex works just fine. But how many software programs do you know that work perfectly all of the time? Its when it is NOT working is when you see their true colors. When see a companies response when things aren't working is when you measure the value of the company and the software program. #### Cons For 13 months now we have been trying to get Apex to interface with LabCorp. This is a process that should only take 2 weeks or less. Our clinic is NOT the only one having problems with Apex. Here we are 13 months later and still no interface. The problem is that clinics are held hostage by software companies because it is frequently cost prohibitive to drop your LIS company and switch to another (same thing with EMR's). At MedNorth we are at the point where we are going to just bite the bullet and switch to a new LIS company....that's how bad it is. #### Vendor response Dr Hill we are sorry to hear of your frustration. Please note that this interface (1 of over 100) was completed by us in 10 weeks but we waited on your EMR for 9 months to complete delivery of insurance & guarantor data. what can we do to make this right for you? Replied April 2019 --- ### Apex for your POL LIS - Overall rating: 5/5 - Reviewer: Lisa C. - Verified reviewer: Yes - Industry: Medical Practice - Company size: 11-50 employees - Product usage: Used daily for more than 2 years - Reviewed: April 2019 - Review source details: This review was submitted organically. No incentive was offered An LIS in the POL results in more timely results without transcription errors. However, most LIS are designed for large hospitals and are so expensive that the average POL cannot even consider the cost of installing one. Apex has changed that. I am the Lab Manager in a POL with 8 providers performing over 100,000 labs on an annual basis, and I must say that this was our best purchase ever! As a plus, the customer support has been very timely and personable. #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 5/5 - Value for money: 5/5 - Customer support: 5/5 - Functionality: 5/5 #### Pros The Apex LIS is perfect for the Physician Office Lab. Not only does it provide all the features needed, but, unlike most of its competitors, its is very affordable! #### Cons I honestly do not have anything negative to say about the Apex system. #### Vendor response Thank you for you for allowing us to be your LIMS. Its a pleasure! Replied May 2019 --- ### SignatureCare Emergency centers Love using Apex LIS - Overall rating: 5/5 - Reviewer: Khalid K. - Verified reviewer: Yes - Industry: Health, Wellness and Fitness - Company size: 501-1000 employees - Product usage: Used daily for more than 2 years - Reviewed: May 2019 - Review source details: This review was submitted organically. No incentive was offered We love using the software as it provides us the central platform to manage our in-house lab. We are able to serve our patients faster and efficiently. #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 5/5 - Value for money: 5/5 - Customer support: 5/5 - Functionality: 5/5 #### Pros It is user-friendly and easy to learn after it is initially set up by the expert staff at Apex support. We have worked with them to centralize the use across multiple facilities and successfully integrated with our EMR software. Results transfer to our EMR seamlessly. #### Cons Sometimes communications to the devices break but Apex support has set up a robust recovery process. #### Vendor response You are most kind. It is a pleasure to be of service to SignaureCare! Replied May 2019 --- ### This software is garbage - Overall rating: 1/5 - Reviewer: Shannon E. - Industry: Medical Practice - Company size: 11-50 employees - Product usage: Used daily for more than 2 years - Reviewed: November 2018 - Review source details: This review was submitted organically. No incentive was offered No one ever teaches you really to use it. It works, but you will hate it because there is a lack of necessary functions. Looks like a kindergartner made it. HATE IT. HATE IT. HATE IT. #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 1/5 - Value for money: 1/5 - Customer support: 1/5 - Functionality: 1/5 #### Pros It stores your data. Crashes all the time. Not many things I like about the software. #### Cons There are a lot of bugs and the software team wants nothing to do with you. Customer service is terrible. They totally ignore you. If a data transfer error occurs features don't help you remedy the problem. Once we had to manually delete 1000s of accidental files. I remember asking to try the software before we bought it and they basically told me that wasn't possible.... #### Vendor response Hi Mr Ealy just read your review and am mortified. With 100s of clients occasionally one falls thru the cracks. My apologies as founder of Apex i will make sure this is corrected quickly. What can i do to make this right for you?

No incentive was offered As [SENSITIVE CONTENT HIDDEN] of one of Bermuda’s largest medical clinics we carefully evaluated which LIS would be best for us 5 years ago.

Replied January 2020 --- ### Good software - Overall rating: 5/5 - Reviewer: GREGORY G. - Verified reviewer: Yes - Industry: Hospital & Health Care - Company size: 2-10 employees - Product usage: Used daily for more than 2 years - Reviewed: July 2019 - Review source details: This review was submitted organically. No incentive was offered We have been working with APEX for over 5 years and we have never had a major issue. They have created multiple interfaces for our laboratory and it has always been done relatively quickly. When there is a delay in my experience it is the other party that is slowing the projects down. #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 4/5 - Value for money: 5/5 - Customer support: 5/5 - Functionality: 4/5 #### Pros I like the team behind Apex a lot. They are responsive to requests, and try to accommodate us without nickel and diming. #### Cons The biggest shortcoming of the software for us is that there is no easy way to enter manual tests results from worksheets. --- ### Lab manager Auspicious Laboratroy - Overall rating: 5/5 - Reviewer: jiang j. - Verified reviewer: Yes - Industry: Hospital & Health Care - Company size: 2-10 employees - Product usage: Used daily for more than 2 years - Reviewed: May 2019 - Review source details: This review was submitted organically. No incentive was offered Our previous LIS system can not interface our Mass Spec to the system, we had to manually enter the data. Apex has experts to solve this problem, we have been happily using this LIS for 3 years. #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 5/5 - Functionality: 5/5 #### Pros The software provides easy access for physician web portal. The interface to all the lab equipment is stable most of time. #### Cons It is not web based, can not work at home. #### Vendor response Thank you for your kind review. FYI we are beta testing cloud version at large New Jersey Hospital.

I'm able to get on a first name basis with employees so it feels familiar and personal. #### Cons Like most LIS systems, it can be confusing at first.
