2SOLUTION

Replacing spreadsheets with Validation Manager

Several laboratory members quickly adopted Validation Manager and soon could deliver significantly faster and more accurate results, together with the automatically generated project reports.

Validation Manager proved to be roughly twice as fast as traditional tools like Excel or spreadsheet editors, notably saving time in result review, analysis conclusions, and outlier detection, thanks to its efficient data handling and intuitive visualization.

Validation Manager’s versatility also made it easy for them to transition between different types of studies. The laboratory predominantly conducted quantitative studies, but can seamlessly carry out qualitative studies when needed e.g. due to a change of analysis, to determine a new cutoff rate or when a positive/negative qualitative result in microbiology is needed.
