What advantages does Rhizomer offer?
Central administration
Reduce your administrative effort and costs. You need fewer qualified staff on site and save on training and travel costs.
Save time
Updating a LAC/E does not take long, around 20 minutes is typical for current computers. This allows e.g. B. Updates can be implemented without a major impact on laboratory operations. This means you can quickly introduce new device series or functions in the laboratory and increase your productivity. Even if a LAC/E computer is defective, it can be restored very quickly. The downtime in the laboratory is significantly reduced.
Rollback on errors
Mistakes happen! Unfortunately, Empower does not allow you to easily uninstall an update. In fact, if an error occurs, a new installation must always be carried out. This is a time-consuming step that must be initiated manually. Rhizomer includes a rollback feature that takes you back to the previous version in a few seconds.
Documentation
Rhizomer allows continuous monitoring of the LAC/E computers. A clear dashboard shows the status of the LAC/E computers and allows you to retrieve the current configuration. If you make changes, they will be recorded and documented in the Rhizomer Audit Trail. Thanks to an electronic device LOG, you can reach the next level on the path to a paperless laboratory.
Individually customizable
Rhizomer is compatible with all custom environments. Different regions or laboratories can also be configured individually in the global networks. This provides the necessary flexibility and can reduce your network traffic. Rhizomer provides the infrastructure for your installation without limiting you. You can install any software you want. This means Rhizomer also fits into your company network.
Securing your configuration
The LAC/E computer also stores information about the configuration of your instrument network, your connected devices and their configuration locally. In the event of a failure or a new installation, these must be laboriously restored. To avoid this, Rhizomer regularly backs up this information and is therefore able to fully restore a LAC/E configuration in the event of a failure.
Future-proof
Before each update, did you have to spend a lot of time thinking about how the software should be rolled out, the process documented and the installation validated? By switching to rhizomer, you receive a comprehensive concept that frees you from this task. Every rollout with Rhizomer works according to the same principle, regardless of whether it is a simple driver update or a switch to a new operating system.
