Starlims is a very user-friendly laboratory management system.

After the launch of STARLIMS system, our laboratory management is more convenient and simple, and the probability of errors is relatively low. However, professional personnel are required to maintain the system.

What they liked

Starlims can support the laboratory management to be more compliant, reduce a large number of paper records, improve the efficiency of laboratory operations, and reduce the probability of laboratory data errors

Room for improvement

The search function of STARLIMS is not particularly useful, and data statistical analysis requires exporting Excel for data processing

Excellent experience with STARLIMS. Our laboratory is now completely paperless. Data Integrity breaches are eliminated. Helping in Regulatory and Customer audits in a big way.

  • Also integration with all quality control application softwares helped to fetch the data from all the instruments
Room for improvement
  • More data analytics dash board can be build

Powerful system

Overall I enjoy the STARLIMS experience. The software is a powerful system that can run any laboratory in the world.

What they liked

What I like about this software is the ability to track the chain of custody, data integrations, sample management, and the ability to integrate any instrument or module a user seems fit

Room for improvement
  • STARLIMS certainly has a learning curve to it
  • However, what I like least about the software is that some of the out of the box functions are not very user friendly
  • I feel that a LIMS system needs to be dummy proof
  • Should be a step by step process that leads you to the finish line
  • I have ran into an out of the box function that needs a user guided step by step process

Very pleased to have this system

As CIO at the National Newborn Screening in Costa Rica, I can assure that Starlims Software is a really good system for labs, we've been using it since 2012 and so far it has been a perfect tool for our day by day activities, the samples process is more efficient and secure since we are using it.

What they liked
  • You can change it as you need, its secure and complex
Room for improvement
  • sometimes the performance could be affected by some processes

Excellent Organizational Tool

Overall we are still in the infancy stages of our STARLIMS roll out, but it definitely does seem promising. It makes scheduling between different groups much more manageable and concrete

What they liked
  • The best thing about the STARLIMS software is that you can have an astronomical amount of information and it can be easily organized and accessed by multiple people
  • I also like the Alert system that pertains to specific equipment maintenance scheduling
Room for improvement
  • The software can feel a little bit clunky at times
  • This usually occurs if the user does not readily have access to view certain items
  • A quick email to the system administrator will usually take care of this , but it seems things would be easier with a more "global" permission setting

Steep Learning Curve, but Very Useful After That

It is an effective sample management option, but training to use it is absolutely required.

What they liked
  • It does everything we need it to, it has a lot of sample management features
  • Once you understand how to use it, it is a good software option
Room for improvement
  • It is NOT intuitive at all, it is hard to figure out which button to press many times
  • There are menus that are hard to understand at first

Starlims positioned to be a long term operational solution.

StarLIMS is a key product in our operations. System is used to capture day-to-day lab activities generated and completed, in addition to provide information to and capture tasks, data from a number of other systems within organization. The product used as an order, workflow, inventory management tool. The product offers a bit of a learning curve and detailed analysis required every time new functionality is deployed. That said our lab users found StarLIMS an incredible improvement over the application we used previously. In addition, StarLIMS offers consistency around UI and behavior. Due to customizable nature of the system we were able to fine tune schema and workflows in-use today to the needs of our users. We are grateful to StarLIMS for staffing our project with people like Marcial Pereira and Julio Duharte. Both are incredible, reliable professionals.
