"A very honest review from a highly organized yet very busy (and scattered) lab manager"
4/5
What do you like best about Genemod?

I appreciate the bulk of what Genemod has to offer. My lab has only had it for a few months, but it's made everyday functions within and throughout the lab a lot smoother. For example, we have benefitted greatly from the freezer management feature, both for plasma and blood samples and for our cells in liquid nitrogen. The interactive inventory feature is absolutely lovely, but i think it would be most beneficial to smaller labs. We have a hard time keeping up with the consumption rate of our supplies (i.e., flasks, pipette tips), so it's only helpful for getting a general feel for where things are stored in the lab, not the actual amount of a certain product that we have on hand. If you have a technician that is looking for more work, then maybe they can take the time to monitor the inventory. I do love the concept, though, so I won't put this in the critiques box. I can see how beneficial it is to a smaller lab or a larger lab with a huge team. I appreciate how intuitive the software is to use, and it was relatively easy to transfer our day-to-day functions from our older inventory platform to Genemod. For the most part, the inventory management is also very helpful and works well. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Genemod?

My critiques lie entirely within the inventory management system.

-- Each month, I generate a spending report for my PI. Genemod has a great feature in which you can filter requests by date (i.e, April 1 to April 30). However, when I "Export" my filtered results, it will export every single order we have ever made, meaning I need to manually scroll through a giant excel file and sort out the ones that I am looking for (e.g. the April requests). I'm not sure why Genemod allows me to filter my requests but not export the filtered requests, but please consider fixing this issue. It adds a lot of work that, in theory, I should not have to do.

-- I would appreciate a field in which we can enter shortcodes associated with the requests as right now I am adding them in at the beginning of the "name" field in requests (so I can still sort purchases by shortcode).

-- I also don't think that Genemod notifies people when you add comments to orders, but this would be incredibly helpful for people to locate the items I received for them (rather than them having to hunt me down across the hospital facilities).

-- In addition, a very minor (but super helpful) change would be adding a "copy" shortcut next to the fields in inventory management. Currently, I have to highlight the whole text. A little "copy" button would be fantastic, but again this is very minor. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Genemod is a straightforward LIMS that offers a cheaper alternative to other platforms"
3.5/5
What do you like best about Genemod?

Genemod is very intuative in terms inventory layout and adaptability to new spaced. There is a good amount of flexibility in the structure that makes it easy to implement in multiple different workspaced. The Genemod team is very responsive and helpful for answering questions and correcting issues. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Genemod?

Some of the functionality of Genemod is limited by glitches and small hangups in the user interface. This comes mostly in the ELN section of the product. There is limited sortability and searchability which makes daily tracking of experiments challenging. The connection of projects to inventory is nice but hindered by the inability to quickly replicate lists of commonly used materials. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Genemod's inventory management platform such as freezers, consumables, and repository features are so useful in our research operations. UI of Genemod platform is really easy to use and integrating our previous reasearch data into Genemod system is very convenient. We are pretty much using Genemod everyday for our lab management. In addition to the software itself, Genemod's customer service is very fast and clear, so when I come up with questions on their features, they replied back in just few minutes, and resolved them instantly.
