LabVantage Solutions announced the release of LabVantage 8.9. The update tackles key challenges in modern labs, helping enhance daily operations.
LabVantage 8.9 introduces faster database handling, time-saving automation, and a more intuitive user interface. These enhancements enable skilled professionals to elevate their performance and complete tasks with greater accuracy and compliance. From technicians on the bench to managers overseeing operations, LabVantage 8.9 supports users at all levels, helping them stay fully engaged and highly productive with a LIMS that adapts to evolving lab demands.
With its upgraded features and advanced tools, LabVantage 8.9 addresses some of the most pressing challenges for laboratories worldwide, including the following:
- Efficiency and Speed: LabVantage 8.9 introduces database partitioning and advanced filtering, which can reduce processing times for large datasets and streamline data retrieval.
- Usability and Automation: Manual processes can lead to inefficiencies and errors. Enhanced features like scannable data entry, customizable interfaces (the new Stellar mode), and automation tools (e.g., Configuration Management and Transfer Automation) simplify workflows, reduce manual intervention, and improve productivity. Also, the integration of AI in the LabVantage Portal to intelligently process unrecognized voice commands (LabVantage Open Talk Interactive Experience) supports an ongoing trend of AI agents embedded in LIMS.
- Regulatory Compliance and Data Management: Compliance with stringent regulations requires robust auditing and traceability. Features such as audit trail filtering, improved Electronic Laboratory Notebook (ELN) capabilities, and automated reporting strengthen compliance and data integrity.
- Complex Workflows: Laboratories must manage intricate workflows, from stability testing to consumable lot tracking. The upgraded platform introduces tools to manage protocol versions, streamline study plans, and augment stability testing capabilities.
