The system offers features to control samples and issue unique identification for samples.
Samples can be assigned to individual or a selection of test types, which can speed up registration.
The setup and design of test methods is simple and allows flexibility that can work with many existing processes, making the integration and implementation very straight forward.
The LabHQ team provide quick and helpful support in the event that I need additional support. The online guide and support is also very useful for learning and getting to grips with the system.
Reporting and certificate templates are flexible and allow us to customise our output to match our customer's requirements.
The system is straight forward and easy to use, and is a system that is fundamental to our routine and daily operations and proven to be reliable for what we have needed. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
We do utilise over a thousand test methods in the system, it can sometimes become difficult to differentiate these, but a clear naming structure has helped resolve this. The ability to see the usage and frequency of prticular methods could be beneficial to administrators and system managers to support with monitoring of workloads and customer demands.

- Laboratory Information Management System fully compliant with GMP.
- Simplifies the management of high sample throughput.
- Client interface allows them to download their certificates and access their data at any point.
- Easy to trend data for both QC and Stability Studies.
- Improves efficiency in generation of certificates of analysis. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
- It would be great if it could link to other software. For example, Chromatographic Data System, so that results can be uploaded direct without the need for manual transcription.
- The ability to fully design your own certificate templates would be beneficial for different clients and different data types. There is currently some flexibility but not to the point where certificates can be bespoke for a client.
- Additional modules for equipment management and chemical stock controls would help bring multiple systems together. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
