What do you like best about Sapio LIMS?

How easy and intuitive it is to write API's to integrate at specific invocation points. Not having to deal with front end developement is also a huge plus. Audit log is very helpful, and the Sapio Admin Tools helps in on the fly support. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Sapio LIMS?

It can be slow given our particular user volume and networking setup, especially since we offices cross multiple states accessing (at least with version 21.8). Ability to perform validation testing is very difficult so as to meet compliance standards. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Sapio LIMS?

• Out-of-the-box ELN to capture paper-on-glass experiments with minimal configuration.

• Some out-of-the-box features I like are customizable homepages for different groups, easy charting capabilities, Inventory handling, and instrument handling.

• The LIMS portion can be configured to suit your workflows.

• Integrated with Solr to enhance search capabilities Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Sapio LIMS?

With tons of flexibility comes complexity. Short how-to videos or instructions to cover the basics and where to find what can help an administrator roll out the system faster for end users or fix issues quickly. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Sapio LIMS?

The flexibility of the configurations makes Sapio LIMS an excellent solution for small and large companies. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Sapio LIMS?

The product out of the box is pretty vanilla and required quite a few configurations for our business but that is by design. It is a platform, a toolbox, not a solution. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Best customizable and scalable LIMS+ELN"
5/5
What do you like best about Sapio LIMS?

The Sapio LIMS ELN is the most customizable product on the market. It makes it easy for administrators and scientists to create a lab-specific process without code. For our lab, we like to over-customize and handle all the back-end code development ourselves. The Rules Engine saves us hours of development time by allowing us to add alerts, transactions, and webhooks within an easily readable framework. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Sapio LIMS?

As Sapio grows, it will need to hire more support staff to help answer forum questions. However, third-party consultants can provide project-level or day-to-day support as required. I have confidence Sapio will scale appropriately with their new backing. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Richard Halton of Sapio LIMS

Thank you for giving Sapio a top review. We truly appreciate your business.

Response from Richard Halton of Sapio LIMS

Thanks for taking the time to review Sapio Sciences. I'm disappointed to hear your feedback. Unlike some LIMS/ELNs, Sapio/Exemplar is highly configurable - I hope our expert services team can work with you to ensure your lab scenarios/workflows are optimized for your specific needs and user roles. I would also like to mention that Sapio will soon provide a large array of documentation and training that I hope you can take advantage of.

"Modern platform with LIMS and ELN"
4.5/5
What do you like best about Sapio LIMS?

Drag and drop workflow/Template building is easy to use and quick. The Exemplar LIMS system and Electronic Lab Notebook is configurable from the data model to the interface like record views and home pages.

Exemplar has the best searching I have seen and has integrated charting as well. So I can visualize any data table where I am...whether at result of search of within the electronic lab notebook experiment.

Sample registration is strong with support for subtypes with their own metadata. Graphical storage, materials management all pretty good. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Sapio LIMS?

Sometimes their updates can come too fast...it's hard to keep up. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
