Another Step Toward Integration in all Israel’s Universities Helen Domeshek presents LabSuit to staff of Israel’s National Institute of Biotechnology Beer Sheba, Israel – May 2016 This week, laboratory workers, PhD students, and administrators from Israel’s National Institute of Biotechnology (NIB) at Ben-Gurion University attended an introductory presentation of Labsuit – with a view to […]

Even Lab Researchers have their WOW! Moments “Labs-Around-Me” is a sharing economy concept for the world of research laboratories. Such labs can share chemicals, antibodies, plasmids and more, with other labs around them. As LabSuit’s concept of “Labs-Around-Me” has evolved, more and more researchers have experienced  amazing WOW! moments when they begin to understand the […]

  LabSuit has rolled out a new feature that helps labs control their budgets! Which in its turn, makes budget balancing easier. Every lab has funds related to different budgets/grants. Sometimes, the grant money is dedicated to specific research, which means that every expense made for this research has to be logged and attributed by […]

Update, Jan 2017: This feature is replaced by Order Discussions. “As a manager, sometimes I get order requests that are missing details, so I can’t place an actual order…”  Sound familiar? We’ve been hearing this type of comment from a lot of lab managers. Lab members often don’t know all of the details of the […]

Tell your lab manager what you want to order by submitting new order requests in your group. Once you build up an order history, you can search through it and request items you’ve ordered before. 1. In “Orders Request” tab. Click the green button: “+Order Request” 2. Fill in the necessary fields, and click “Submit […]

Sub-locations is a convenient way to keep account of your items. Your lab may have numerous inventory locations such as closets, liquid nitrogen racks, desiccators and so on.  How do we keep track of all items inside? Tracking by one location field is just not enough!  Often location has several dimensions, for example: “The bottle […]

After hearing some feedbacks from LabSuit users, we took a plunge and made email notifications versatile and accurate regarding the trigger events. From now on, a lab manager (other lab members also) can have better control over which actions on LabSuit trigger email notifications. Today, all “Orders Management” events, such “Approve”, “Mark as Delivered”, etc. […]

A well-known proverb states that “Walls have ears”, meaning, eavesdropping can occur when you least expect it. But how many times have you found yourself wondering about the stories different object could tell us, if they could only talk? Take, for example, this red fire hydrant. I recently became aware of this cool startup that […]

Today I had a chance to talk with two different lab managers. Their labs both love and use LabSuit’s order management. One lab manager talked about an inherent challenge that every lab faces. Another lab manager proposed a solution, and it’s working! 1st lab manager said: “Well, I wish we had a “magical plug” that […]

Recently we improved orders management module in LabSuit.  Lets’t take this classical case as a example. In a typical lab there are two persons responsible for ordering. The first just approves the order, which is then submitted to the order manage, who actually orders it. Usually these functions are strictly separated and often, this two […]
