QC Section Head Pharmaceuticals Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "LIMS product that needs more development time before being commercialized for heavy users" August 29, 2023 2.0 Pros When it works, you can expect it to track audits trials in your laboratory. It is also a way to go paperless for your worksheet, test reports, inventory record, and usage log systems. Cons There are a lot of unacceptable bugs or design flaws in the software that should have been caught during their QC or QA testing. For example, there is one instance where our supervisor received a test sample on August 2023 and set the due completion date to 30 days. For some reason, the sample due date automatically calculated by the system was December 2022, which was backdated to a year. Confronting the developers, they told us this was a bug "due to several samples being added to the system at the same time, causing the software logic to fail at the backend". We felt that this was a very common use case and should not happen to a mature, marketable product. As for poor design, an example would be when preparing volumetric solutions that have a shelf life of 24 hours, the LIMS software would consider the solution expired on the next calendar date (Even if the solution was prepared at 23:59 pm the day before) After confronting the developers, they stated that our request was uncommon, and that they would take our request as a requirement and need additional time to develop it. In the end, we just resorted to set the validity of the 24 hr volumetric solutions to 48 hours to bypass this bad design.Lastly, the fact that the software forces you to run it using Internet Explorer mode and not Microsoft Edge poses a serious security risk and does not inspire confidence at all. Review Source BP Bideha P. Associate Manager, Strategic Planning Pharmaceuticals Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "CaliberLIMS: Perspective" August 24, 2023 4.0 The main business problem that was solved is the increment in the productivity of the users. As the documentation creation process in a regulated environment can be tedious, implementation of CaliberLIMS has replaced the tedious process with a comparatively smooth operation. Pros The things that I most liked about CaliberLIMS is that all the required features are available by default and it is the decision of the lab on what additional features to add. Out of the box, the features required in a compliant lab are available. It may not be the most user friendly but there are a lot of configuration features. Cons The worst thing about CaliberLIMS is that it is not exactly user friendly to use. May be the modules can be compacted for a proper flow during operation and during setup. The other thing that I do not like about CaliberLIMS is the lack of a proper tracking system or a proper notification system. It is entirely upto the user to try and track any activities that needs to be done.
