What is the best LIMS system?
Regarding the technological background of a LIMS, you should take notice of three primary considerations: server system, workstations, and network infrastructure – without these three characteristics, a LIMS software cannot exist! The server system is the LIMS hosting or the lab database. Workstations are usually connected to the server system through a local network. They are typically operated with MS Windows and offer the user the LIMS application with a graphical user interface. Network infrastructure and extensive area networks (LAN, WAN) are predominantly based on Ethernet.
On the one hand, some of the LIMS software on the market can help laboratory managers with vendor relations. On the other hand, others can adapt to individual staff needs and tasks according to the area of expertise. The agility of LIMS combines with other tools that relate to technological progress, such as smartphones. Recently, they might be cloud-based or web-based as well.
