Laboratory Supervisor and Biorepository Manager Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) 6/12/2024 "Freezerworks On-Site Training" 5/5 What do you like best about Freezerworks? Freezerworks is me a biorepository software platform that allows me to keep detailed storage records for thousands of previoulsy collected human research biological samples, which are stored across multiple freezers. The software's ease of use, data implementation and data integration features makes it an outstanding biorepository software platform which is user friendly. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The customer service provided by Freezerworks support staff is exceptional. I have reached out with so many questions over the years, from questions about the software itself, to brainstorming sessions about how to best represent/model certain kinds of data. They are always willing to help. The company is pretty small, so the staff routinely discusses any issues that come up. From the support staff to the developers, testers, and sales teams - everyone is in the loop. I've found them to be really responsive when it comes to suggestions for software improvement or on those occasions when I've found a bug. They are constantly looking forward and improving the product and the interface. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about Freezerworks? There can be a steep learning curve when starting out with Freezerworks. Also, since it is so customizable, I think that users can make a lot of errors when configuring their user-defined fields, making the database clunky and ineffective. The web client has been a great addition to the software in recent years, but it still needs a bit of fine-tuning. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What problems is Freezerworks solving and how is that benefiting you? We are a research institution that uses Freezerworks to catalog biospecimens from a large number of studies. Implementing Freezerworks has allowed us to efficiently track the origin, storage, chain-of-custody, and downstream use of hundreds of thousands of specimens stored in over 75 freezers. Freezerworks allows us to define the metadata that is important to each of the studies, ensuring that the full value of each specimen is maintained - because specimens without data have very little value in our line of work.
