Pros & Cons

  • User-Friendly: Several reviewers specifically mention the user-friendliness of the system, particularly regarding master data creation and calculations.
  • Comprehensive Features: The system is described as having excellent functionality and a wide range of modules. Some reviewers praised specific features like sample workflows, inventory modules, audit trails, and reporting.
  • Compliance Focus: The system is designed with compliance in mind, specifically mentioning features that support adherence to regulations like FDA 21 CFR Part 11. The inability to delete data is specifically pointed out as a positive for compliance.
  • Knowledgeable Team: Reviewers commend the development and implementation teams for their expertise.
  • Good Electronic Raw Data and COA Templates: One reviewer highlighted the well-designed electronic raw data capture and Certificate of Analysis (COA) templates.
  • Bugs and Design Flaws: Several reviewers reported encountering bugs and design flaws, some of which seem significant (e.g., incorrect date calculations, issues with concurrent sample entry, handling of short-lived solutions). One reviewer noted that these issues should have been caught during testing.
  • Poor UI/UX (Implied): Some reviews mention the reports and audit trails having limited sorting/filtering functions and poor presentation, which suggests usability issues.
  • Limited Customization (Contradictory Information): While one reviewer said it is a "best customized product," another indicated a need for more customization options.
  • Dependence on Vendor Support: A key concern is the reliance on the vendor for issue resolution, which can impact business operations if support is not readily available. Post go-live vendor support is highlighted as a potential issue.
  • Complicated Investigation Cycle: One reviewer found the investigation cycle to be overly complicated and in need of simplification, especially regarding OOS (Out of Specification) tracking.
  • Instrument Management Issues: Calibration due dates in the instrument management module were mentioned as a point of concern.
  • Solution Usage Reporting Issues: Consolidating usage for solutions in reports/inventory is another area needing improvement.
  • Reliance on Internet Explorer Mode: One reviewer noted the software requires Internet Explorer mode, which poses a security risk.
