What do you like best about Lockbox LIMS?

I like the customization ability. We modified the platform to accommodate our test subject tracking system which needed to reflect which tests subjects had been before. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Lockbox LIMS?

There is a finite upper limit on how much customization can be done. Definitely can work around this with some creativity. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Definitely worthwhile. We haven't even gone fully live with all of our plans and Lockbox has been a huge benefit to us. Can't wait to get all the way done! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Lockbox LIMS?

The first strength is the design of the lockbox schema, that covers most of the basic LIMS features required by any laboratory that may need GCLP or GMP level requirements, including database encryption, tracking of sample custody, protocol/SOP management, and implementation of electronic forms and data entry when implementing protocols.

A second and most important strength go this lies is the ability to customize what the LIMS tracks, and share information using collaborative portals, that enable multi-site communications and coordinate data entry and dissemination. Rules and design are configured in the lims using an easy to use desktop like interface, then the same rules are pushed to a portal through the force 'lightning interface'. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Lockbox LIMS?

There is nothing I really don't like about the software. However the underlying Force API is a very powerful and has many features, and it would have been useful to have shorter case/article documentation to provide more focused help for the Lockbox Lims application itself for administrator and end users. Since we had started using the Lims, Thirdwave had published a support portal with a searchable knowledge base that contains articles for the common administrative tasks for managing the Lockbox application, that provides specific guidance to setting up and managing Lockbox features. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Lockbox LIMS:

Finally, and what ultimately is responsible for all the functionality, is how the force API was leveraged to design a logically consistent set of LIMS applicable features that provide easy to use desktop like configuration tools so the end user organization. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Lockbox LIMS solving and how is that benefiting you?

We were trying to solve a communication and coordination between performance centers that are located in different US states, and countries around the world, that are work together as a consortium for NIH and EU funded projects and needed a way to track samples, as well as disseminate sample and project meta-data, and perform management of each program.

What do you like best about Lockbox LIMS?

We like how user friendly it is. We were able to get up and running on Lockbox to track our samples and projects within a few days. The screens are very user friendly. If we have question, they answer it quickly. The software has helped us keep track of our samples and project status. Before we were using Excel. We are a CRO and Lockbox make our projects (samples, results, reports) much more organized. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Lockbox LIMS?

When we first started using the software 2 years ago, the box map feature was not as nice as it is now. Now it provide even better features to customize which field can be displayed. We have been too busy to turn on the new feature, but wished we had been trained on it initially because it is a nice way to find samples in boxes. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Lockbox LIMS:

I would suggest reviewing all the features that Lockbox offers and consulting with Thirdwave before starting to use it. We were focused just on sample and project status tracking, but we wish we had taken a wider view of what it can offer. We highly recommend this LIMS to other labs. Easy to use and good support. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Lockbox LIMS solving and how is that benefiting you?

Managing very important samples and project status in an efficient way with a low cost. Reducing our client's project turn around time. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
