FORMULATOR Software, LLC develops and distributes laboratory informatics software solutions.

History

FORMULATOR was originally developed by ColorTec Associates — a developer of "color QC, color mixing, and laboratory applications" — in 2002. A separate company, FORMULATOR Software, was created in 2005 to further develop the product.[1]

In July 2016, the company announced it was adding a cloud-based software as a service (SaaS) option for its software offerings.[2]

Technology and products

FORMULATOR

FORMULATOR is an electronic laboratory notebook "for the formulation chemist, food technologist and regulatory agent."[3] The software's base functionality is represented as the "chemical" version. Additional modules may be added to the software to give it extended functionality for researchers in the cosmetic, nutritional, and pharmaceutical industries. A SaaS-based cloud version of their software is also available.[2]

Additional modules include:

  • project manager
  • advanced costing
  • sample manager
  • inventory manager
  • quality manager
  • production manager
  • labeling add-on

Features

The following feature list(s) is/are derived solely from public, freely-available online information the vendor provides. A lack of a "Y" does not necessarily mean that the product doesn't have that feature. The lack of a "Y" could mean:
  • the vendor chose to not put relevant feature information online despite its existence in the product.
  • the vendor chooses to make the feature information available only to those who create an account or call/e-mail.
  • the feature information exists online to the public, but a URL could not be found to cite the existence of the feature.
  • the feature does not exist for the product.
A vendor's product may receive more confirmed features with the addition of more public information to the vendor's site and/or by providing a URL to a page or document that can act as a citation for the existence of the feature. Prospective buyers are highly recommended to contact the vendor directly to verify features as this list isn't authoritative, and product upgrades and changes happen rapidly in some cases.
