PDS Group Holding AG—doing business as PDS Life Sciences or PDS— develops and distributes laboratory informatics software solutions for businesses working in preclinical science.

History

The company was formally founded in November 2007.[1]

On March 21, 2014, PDS announced it would be rebranding its PathData, ReproData, and ToxData products[2] as an integrated modular software suite called Ascentos.[3][4] However, it's not clear if the modules function as stand-alone software like their predecessors or as dependent modules of the Ascentos platform.

Technology and products

Ascentos

Ascentos is a modular, cloud-based laboratory information management system (LIMS) for pre-clinical research and reporting for the life sciences and chemical industries.[5]

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.
