I like how Dotmatics centralizes and simplifies scientific data management, making it easier to record experiments, retrieve historical data, and compare results across projects. I appreciate the platform’s flexibility and scalability, supporting both chemistry and biology workflows, which enhances collaboration within multidisciplinary teams. The integration of tools like electronic lab notebooks, data visualization, and analytics improves productivity and reduces repetitive manual work. Dotmatics handles large and complex datasets reliably, which is crucial in research environments where data accuracy and traceability are important. I find that its tools are specifically designed for managing complex scientific data efficiently, reducing data silos, and enhancing cross-team collaboration and decision-making. The platform’s ability to integrate chemical, biological, and experimental data in one environment adds significant value. Overall, these features streamline workflows, improve data accessibility, and support better, faster scientific decisions. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

While Dotmatics is a strong and capable platform, there are a few areas where improvements could make the experience even better. One challenge is the learning curve, especially for new users. Some tools and workflows are powerful but not always intuitive, which can require additional training or documentation. At times, system performance can be affected when working with very large datasets or complex queries, leading to slower response times. Improving performance optimization and providing clearer feedback during heavy processing would enhance usability. Another area for improvement is customization and flexibility. Certain workflows or reports require technical support or configuration changes, and giving end users more self-service customization options would save time. Additionally, cross-module consistency could be improved, as different tools within the platform sometimes feel slightly disconnected due to acquisitions. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

A simple process to install and/or upgrade. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I see a heavy emphasis on Luma these days and not much is happening in the core product. The core Browser UI is dated Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Dotmatics helps me in my research or many scientist to manage and analyse my data. It's ability to streamline and integrate my research data across different departments. Its tools help researchers make more informed decisions faster by providing intuitive data Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

While it offers a lot of functionality, the complexity of setting up and customizing workflows might take some time to get used to, especially for users who aren't as familiar with data management platforms or scientific software. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What I really like about Dotmatics is how it simplifies collaboration and makes managing research data so much easier. Everything is centralized, so teams can access and share data seamlessly, which saves a ton of time. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Depending or taking into consideration the size of your team or the complexity of your workflows, it might take some time to customize everything to fit your needs perfectly. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Dotmatics offers end-to-end solution for R&D life science. It is Flexible, dynamic and customisable to the need and requirements of different departments. Enabling the creation of different and varied workflows that meets every process, from logistics to chemistry, biology or formulation and pharmacology. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Unfortunately at times customisation can be a double edge sword and can make things challenging especially when it comes to the upgrade process. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Integration of the various modules - Registry, SU, ELN etc Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Difficulty in configuration and implementation. Requires in-house expertise to configure. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Dotmatics software has been a powerful tool in our drug discovery program. In particular, Vortex has been highly effective at analyzing countless chemical and physical properties of compound libraries and generating impressive 2D and 3D graphs. The user learning curve is minimal, even for a chemist not well-versed in informatics, and customer support has been prompt and excellent. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

We have had no significant issues with Dotmatics thus far. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The implementation of an electronic laboratory notebook (ELN) to replace traditional paper notebooks was something that Epichem was always keen to get on-board with. Despite the sometimes daunting and huge task to move from paper books to an ELN, Dotmatics has made the process very approachable and have guided us every step of the way.

They have provided Epichem with extensive resources during the set-up, including many virtual meetings to help understand the fully customisable system to cater to our every want and need, and tailoring our specific system so we get the most out of it.

The Dotmatics team has always been very approachable, with no request deemed too hard, and a support line always on standby. Dotamtics has also provided training for Epichem’s scientists, showing how flexible the system can be and intuitive at the same time.

I’d recommend using Dotmatics for any company, large or small, if they are using an ELN for the first time or switching to an ELN that adapts to their business’s requirements. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

There have been no downsides. The team have been extremely receptive to all of our needs and we are excited to transition to ELNs finally. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It serves as a data umbrella that brings our chemical and biological data together. The annual admin requirement in terms of total hours is actually low. Support is really good, not perfect. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It is "tinkery". Some of the things I have to do as an admin are surprisingly fussy and detailed. Ids have to be plucked from special places. The number of tables is amazing. Sometimes, there is no way to know where specific information comes from without pinging Support. It would help to have a schema and better tools for finding where values come from. Visualization is an issue. We had hopes for Blueprint, but it never panned out. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The Browser and Vortex interface was familiar from previous experience, which was reassuring, and most tools run within a browser/ can be hosted in the cloud, minimising maintenance costs. The "out of the box" Register solution is fit for purpose, but also readily customisable to individual needs. This was done under expert guidance from the implementation team, who went above and beyond to do this to my requirements. They were also on hand to deal with the migration of legacy data which is a non-trivial task and not for the faint-hearted! The Dotmatics consult assigned to this is a real credit to the organisation, and it was extremely reassuring to have this support. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Dotmatics is a large company and the initial contacts felt slow to get off the ground in order to establish the business relationship, but this takes effort on both sides, of course. Once it had been decided which products were needed and how much implementation/ training time this would involve, it took further time to get the cloud instance up and running and get an implementation team together. But what a team, so worth the wait! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
