The realm of laboratory automation operates at the intersection of precision and efficiency. In this rapidly evolving landscape, the choice of automation software becomes pivotal. While closed providers may offer a seemingly straightforward and convenient solution, their limitations can hinder innovation and flexibility.
Some may argue that providers are the experts of their own system and therefore they are happy to rely on their integrator for everything. Concerns may arise regarding the initial learning curve when switching from a closed provider to a new open provider. Yet, it’s crucial to recognize that the investment in learning an open platform pays off in the long term through increased flexibility, efficiency, and innovation.
Opting for an open platform like Director™ Lab Scheduling Software, equipped with a Software Development Kit (SDK), liberates your lab from the constraints of laboratory integrators. You have the power to customize and improve your lab automation systems according to your lab’s specific needs, thereby enhancing workflow capabilities.
Let’s explore this in more detail:
