Lims user meeting sees updated products and a claim for a world record of simultaneous system demonstrations
Autoscribe, a provider of enterprise laboratory information management system (Lims) solutions, has claimed a world record for the number of concurrent Lims system demonstrations held.
Its annual European Matrix Lims user meeting was held at the WilliamsF1 Conference Centre in the UK on 2 November 2004.
The programme featured the release of two new products - Matrix Lims version 5 and Resource Planner.
One key point of interest with Matrix Version 5 was the demonstration of how the configuration tools can be used to create web client screens as well as conventional client screens.
The system supports a mix of clients and only one design of screen needs to be developed for the various clients thus saving valuable implementation time and cost.
Resource Planner is now ready for delivery and already two key pharmaceutical customers have evaluated the product.
One is interested in the use of the software for planning use of laboratory resources such as instruments and laboratory staff. The other is interested in more efficient planning of training courses by making best use of trainer resources.
The unique aspects of this meeting were the afternoon break-out sessions that featured ten different customer systems demonstrated by key users from the companies represented.
This demonstration clearly showed the flexibility of Matrix Lims as ten different industries and applications were featured.
