History

Technology and products

BSI, SEER*DMS, and SQUISH

BSI is a laboratory information management system (LIMS) "for biospecimen management that can be customized to meet your needs."[1] BSI can be hosted locally or subscribed to yearly using the software as a service (SaaS) distribution method.

SEER*DMS is an information management system for authorized cancer registries that "provides support for all core cancer registry functions — importing data, editing, linkage, consolidation, and reporting."[2]

SQUISH is a LIMS "that helps people keep track of product development, client requests, software bugs, help desk tickets, tasks, and more."[3] SQUISH is accessed via subscription through the software as a service (SaaS) distribution method.

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.
