The CoA template was configured to accommodate our requirements, such as the inclusion of all critical client and sample information and a tabular view of all analytes and their observed values, with each cell of the table designed to capture values based on specific test types. For this, the CloudLIMS team worked closely with us to fully align the CoA template with our expectations. CloudLIMS automated calculations and used in-built logic and complex algorithms to achieve this.

We have signed up for the free version of CloudLIMS. It is a LIMS platform that has quite a lot of functionalties that are already built out. We liked that here is a low cost starting option that can later be converted into a higher cost (one time pay per year) with full functionality asour lab grows. We did like the transparent feaures, graphic design and the connectability of the various modules such as samples, tests, worklfows, inventory and so on. It is all there, what we needed to do is customize them for oour laboratories workflow, storage, test recepies. The est up is relatively easy, however it takes time (just because we want o make sure we set al items properly for the lab.) The support team is available, less so for the free version, however we get support as needed.

There are quite a few things that come to my mind: First and foremost, CloudLIMS has a neat and intuitive UI which makes it easy to use. Secondly, it’s highly configurable. And I would be remiss if I didn't mention their remarkable support team; they have been consistently helpful whenever we've had questions.
