Technology and products

Alis is a 100% web-based laboratory information management system (LIMS) offered in the SaaS model that helps to improve effectiveness and efficiency of quality management processes in a production environment.^[1]

Features

Alis offers a set of base functionality with the following additional modules:

Alarm - automatic reporting and follow-up of user defined non-conformities and alerts
Statistical Process Control - pro-active statistical analysis of processes to identify processes that are out of control
Certificate of Analysis - automatically generate CoA documents in pdf, conforming to your corporate identity
Quality Caresystem - ISO conform document management

Sample planning - enables planning and automatic warning on samples
Management information - financial reports on laboratory performance and output

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.
