Unlike other suppliers that require costly add-on modules for essential features, CloudLIMS delivers a fully integrated system. > > **Cons**: The trial period offered very limited functionality, which made it more difficult to ascertain whether it would be suitable long-term and thus longer conversations were required to instil confidence. While the software is technically well-engineered, the user experience occasionally reflects a developer's perspective rather than that of an active laboratory professional. > > Throughout our procurement and evaluation process, their technical and sales teams demonstrated good responsiveness and engagement. They provided detailed system demonstrations, extended our trial period to facilitate thorough testing, and clearly illustrated how the platform's versatility can be configured to align with our specific business workflows. ----- ### "A Great Lab Helper That Saves Time," — 4.0/5 > **Sthembile** | *14 August 2026* | Construction | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10 > > **Pros**: What I like most about CloudLIMS is how it tracks our samples and enters test results automatically, saving us time and stopping mistakes according to the reviews . > > **Cons**: Since I haven't used it myself, the main complaint from other people is that it takes a lot of time to set up and learn. > > Even though I haven't worked with it directly in a physical lab, feedback from other labs shows that CloudLIMS provides a very positive overall. ----- ### "CloudLims Sales Review" — 4.0/5 > **Nomathemba** | *13 August 2026* | Civil Engineering | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10 > > **Pros**: With what has been presented to us so far, it has all the features needed by our Lab for easy function > > **Cons**: Some information is hidden and they do not explain everything to the customer upfront during the Demo presentation. > > Good so far and yet do discover more about the software after the implementation and trainings has been done and we are actually using the product ----- ### "CloudLims review" — 5.0/5 > **Liezel** | *26 March 2025* | Medical Devices | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10 > > **Pros**: It is very comprehensive. It ties all aspects of the lab together. > > **Cons**: It can be time consuming to capture data and link different fields. > > I enjoy working with CloudLims. It is a comprehensive lab LIMS system and it is the backbone of our lab operations on a day to day basis. ----- ### "High featured, low cost LIMS with useful web based interface" — 4.0/5 > **Claire** | *28 May 2026* | Research | Recommendation rating: 7.0/10 > > **Pros**: CloudLIMS is a low cost, high featured web based Lab management system that has made managing the freezers and fridges in my lab much easier. It is remarkably comprehensive, and allows easy crosslinking of samples and subjects, with the location of samples very quick and simple. I also like that because it is web based, I can access it from anywhere in the world with an internet connection. I like that you can download the data in Excel or text format for downstream processing such as plate layout planning. > > **Cons**: If my internet connection is slow, the complex web pages can take longer to load. The learning curve was a little steep for some users. > > It has served my needs with the features that you would find in a more expensive LIMS system but at a lower cost, and its web-based approach makes it very easy to manage. As an administrator, this is a valuable asset. Overall, I have been very pleased with it and would recommend it to others. ----- Page: 1 / 3\ Next: [Next page](https://www.capterra.co.za/software/131317/cloudlims?page=2) ## Links - [View on Capterra](https://www.capterra.co.za/software/131317/cloudlims) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | de | | | de-AT | | | de-CH | | | en | | | en-AE | | | en-AU | | | en-CA | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-IL | | | en-IN | | | en-NZ | | | en-SG | | | en-ZA | | | fr | | | fr-BE | | | fr-CA | | | fr-LU | | | ja | | | nb | | | pl | | | sv | | | tr | | ----- ## Structured Data
