ActiveLIMS vs. NucleoLIS

NucleoLIS has the flexibility to build workflows for any type of clinical test. I experienced all of the positives that Psyche systems and NucleoLIS had to offer when I was tasked with building a workflow for COVID-19 testing. We were able to establish a LIMS workflow for COVID-19 testing in a matter of weeks in order to ramp up our testing to serve our community when we were one of the only testing sites available.

• Software as flexible as NucleoLIS does require time to implement.
• I would like to see more out-of-the-box solutions for specimen workflows specific for the testing being offered.
• There isn't a billing option but it does allow data to be exported to be used by third-party billing software.

I have used multiple LIMS systems in my career and have also developed internal systems for specific testing. NucleoLIS provides a great balance of developing a personalized system in a well-established and functional existing framework to build out each individual lab's workflows. This can be done without the need to have an entire IT department which I could not say for the previous systems I used.
