History

In July 2005, CliniSys Group Limited acquired pathology software developer MIPS NV.^[1]^[2]

In May 2007, ECI Partners LLP acquired CliniSys Group Limited for "Gbp61 million, plus an earn-out of up to Gbp2 million from its founding shareholders."^[3]

On October 26, 2015, Sunquest Information Systems, Inc. announced that its parent company Roper Technologies had acquired both CliniSys Group Limited and Atlas Medical.^[4]^[5] The press release noted, however, that "[c]ompletion of the CliniSys acquisition is dependent upon receiving approval from the competition authorities in Germany and the United Kingdom," and that "[c]ollaboration between Sunquest and CliniSys will not begin until formal approval is received."^[4]

On January 7, 2016, Montagu Private Equity LLP announced the completion of the sale of CliniSys to Roper Technologies^[6]; CliniSys made a similar announcement on the 26.^[7]

Prior offerings

SampleNet was "a windows-based application providing connectivity between all analytical platforms within and outwith the laboratory environment and your laboratory information system."^[8]

Additionally, the CyberTrack application was also removed sometime in 2021 and is presumed discontinued. CyberTrack was "a web-based application for online transfusion registration and tracking" that "allows health care providers (nurses, doctors) from outside the laboratory to register a blood transfusion and to consult recent, current and future transfusion info."^[9]
