"Useful laboratory notebook for customizable data+inventory automation, and highly respectful team."

June 28, 2023

❌ What’s Not Great

“Scispot website and customized scripts may occasionally have some engineering glitches that can be initially difficult to work around. Nonetheless, the Scispot team is very open to our feedback and readily fixes them as we bring the issues up!”

✅ Positive Notes

“The Scispot team is very willing to listen and help with our specific script needs and incorporate our feedback into their application, specifically when it comes to automated data entry and calculations. Scispot experiments/labsheets/documents are also extremely useful when documenting SOPs, experimental observations, and laboratory data. The Scispot team is also very respectful, quick to respond, and eager to implement our requested customizations. Thank you!”

"Lab workflows made easy."

June 9, 2023

❌ What’s Not Great

“Not really a negative attribute. Our challenge was that we had multiple interrelated products and were concerned if the plug-and-play would work. But the team accommodated it with few customizations.”

✅ Positive Notes

“One spot for LIMS, Inventory management system, product tracking, SOP compliance and secure data sharing between clients and partners. A single tool to manage both internal and external stakeholders and processes.”

"Best LIMS for big data and computational workflows"

June 4, 2023

❌ What’s Not Great

“Nothing specifically. Scispot releases two new features in every sprint, so my feedback on improvements is addressed promptly.”

✅ Positive Notes

“I love Scispot’s LIMS. It helps me automate my complete samples journey from inception to delivery programmatically.

Scispot also offers a data lake that any LIMS in the market don’t provide.

We use Scispot’s API to programmatically pull and push samples data from various CROs”

Editor Review

Scispot emerges as a robust and adaptable LIMS solution tailored for modern labs. Many users praise its plug‐and‐play nature, seamless integration with lab instruments and internal apps, and the flexibility to customize workflows with minimal fuss. The system’s built-in automation and centralized data management enhance operational efficiency and scientific productivity, with standout features like built‐in AI analytics and an embedded Jupyter hub that facilitate advanced data processing. On the support front, Scispot excels with near real-time responsiveness via Slack, and a team that is proactive in addressing feedback and resolving minor latency or engineering glitches. However, a few users note a steep learning curve in fully leveraging the platform’s capabilities and highlight occasional latency issues and a desire for additional out-of-the-box scientific analytics options. Overall, while the platform offers exceptional integration, customization, and support, prospective adopters should be prepared for a brief ramp-up period to harness its full potential.
