iLab Solutions, a part of Agilent Technologies, develops and distributes laboratory informatics software solutions that primarily focus on work flow management, reporting, and billing.

History

iLab Solutions was founded in July 2006.^[1]

In March 2013, iLab partnered with Vanderbilt University to take features from Vanderbilt's Core Ordering & Reporting Enterprise System (CORES) and implement them into iLab's core facility management system. The company claims that this combined system is being used in "130 research institutions across 13 countries."^[2]

In August 2016, iLab was purchased by Agilent Technologies, a leader in life sciences, diagnostics and applied chemical markets. Agilent provides laboratories worldwide with instruments, services, consumables, applications and expertise, enabling customers to gain the insights they seek. Now, as a part of Agilent, iLab adds to Agilent’s robust CrossLab laboratory enterprise management capabilities.

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.
