BTLIMS Technologies (doing business as BTSoft) is a software company that develops and distributes the laboratory information management system software BTLIMS, among other laboratory informatics solutions.

History

Initial development of BTLIMS began in 2002, with the first version of the software released in 2006, strongly focusing on environmental laboratories.[1]

In the spring of 2023, BTLIMS tweaked and rebranded some of their solutions under the "ALPACA" moniker.

Technology and products

BTLIMS and ALPACA Inventory, LIMS, Micro ELN, and SDMS

BTLIMS is a modular, desktop-based laboratory information management system (LIMS) "that can automate workflow, simplify processes, and strengthen productivity."[2]

APLACA Inventory (formerly ICM or Inventory Control Manager[3]) is inventory management software for laboratories "that streamlines your inventory processes and gives you complete control over ordering your lab’s consumables, chemical reagents, and instruments."[4]

ALPACA LIMS (formerly LDM or Lab Data Master[5]) is a LIMS that "is easy to use, helps your lab maintain compliance, protects data, and automates workflows."[6]

ALPACA Micro ELN is an electronic laboratory notebook (ELN) that empowers your organization "with improved research and development workflows, so you can make breakthroughs faster."[7]

ALPACA SDMS (formerly SDMS[8], though not to be confused with a scientific data management system) is described as a "sample data management system" that can inteface with a LIMS (or act alone), designed to provide "dynamic functionality to maintain traceability throughout the entire sample data management process."[9]

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.
