LabVantage Solutions, a leading provider of laboratory informatics solutions and services, today announced the introduction of its Enterprise SaaS. The offering incorporates the features of the company’s standard software-as-a-service (SaaS) option while adding software configurability and interfacing capabilities.
The company’s standard SaaS provides a lower cost laboratory information management system (LIMS), which can include ELN, LES, and SDMS features, hosted in a multi-tenant cloud environment available through an annual subscription fee. The company says the SaaS option eliminates upfront capital and start-up costs associated with a conventional LIMS and provides users with the basics to access and operate the system via web browser. It’s also scalable and includes regular, automatically implemented software updates.
The Enterprise SaaS adds configurability and custom interfacing support enabling modifications designed to accommodate the needs of more complex organisations. It supports interfacing with external software systems and adding features specific to the needs of the customer. The system can also be modified as the company’s requirements change over time, and unlike the company’s standard SaaS, Enterprise SaaS is hosted in a single-tenant cloud environment, providing an additional layer of security and flexibility.
Both the standard and Enterprise systems can also be maintained by LabVantage in a controlled and compliant way, providing users evidence of installation qualification, testing, and change control.
“LabVantage Enterprise SaaS is the latest example of how we listen to our customers and respond with solutions pushing the boundaries of the possible,” said Robert Voelkner, LabVantage VP, Sales and Marketing. “The standard LabVantage SaaS is a very popular option that works well for many customers; however, we have received many requests to go beyond the restrictions of a standard SaaS solution and offer a more configurable, flexible SaaS LIMS that allows organizations to fully configure and create customised system interfaces able to meet their specific needs.”
The company helps customers implement the system changes they require, including no-code configuration changes, system interfacing, reporting, and capabilities for importing data from instrumentation. It also works with customers to ensure that system changes are compatible with the native configuration and custom system interfacing mechanisms of the LIMS.
