LigoLab’s New Tiered Pricing Model for its LIS Platform Delivers a Tailored Fit and Maximum Value

LOS ANGELES, CA - LigoLab Information Systems, developers of the comprehensive and agile laboratory information system software solution known as LigoLab Informatics Platform, announced today that its pathology lab software is now available in a tiered pricing model that caters to all laboratory discipline types, sizes, and complexities. 

According to LigoLab CEO Suren Avunjian, the tiered pricing fills a void, allowing independent pathology groups and molecular and reference laboratories to select the LIS software tier that aligns best with their current operations instead of settling for a one-size-fits-all medical LIS. 

“The lack of a tailored laboratory information system that can fit the unique needs of a specific laboratory is a common frustration in our industry,” said Avunjian. “This one-size-fits-all healthcare LIS mentality has been in place for a long time, leaving laboratories with few choices. We’ve set out to change this by offering LIS system software that matches a lab’s workflows and growth plans for each stage of its business development.”

LigoLab’s tiered pricing model is designed to deliver maximum value while also serving as a laboratory’s catalyst for modernization and faster scalability. 

“Each platform tier addresses higher levels of complexity and functionality,” explained Avunjian. “This means our lab partners not only have the features and capabilities to match their current needs but are also provided with a clear roadmap for future growth and development. Our comprehensive gives them the flexibility to scale up to a higher tier as their needs evolve without ever having to change laboratory information systems.” 

What follows are brief descriptions of each LIS software tier, plus a list of the modules and features available within each tier.

Until the recent past, the LigoLab platform was utilized mainly by mid-to-large scale labs, but now with this new tiered pricing model, smaller labs that are interested in growing can use the same LIS system leveraged by regional and national labs, but at a lower threshold and benefit from never having to switch to a new LIS system as their business matures.

“The LigoLab platform is the Swiss Army knife for your laboratory operations,” said Avunjian. “With one laboratory information system, your lab gains everything it needs, be it a blade for cutting through red tape and bottlenecks, a screwdriver for tightening up processes, or a magnifying glass for close-up inspection of your data. All the tools are there at your fingertips and you can use them as soon as you need them.”
