Why ComputedField?
Your work is complicated. Your software should not be.
In our extensive work within the biotech sector, we’ve witnessed teams with groundbreaking missions, yet anchored to paper documentation and sprawling Excel databases. Transitioning to digital laboratory solutions like Benchling brought its challenges – from data migration processes to adopting new digital workflows and ensuring platform adoption in the long run. After all, just like an Excel sheet, a digital platform is only as effective as its regular upkeep.
The intricacies go deeper. Tailoring biotech software to specific needs requires expertise. Having worked across numerous biotech applications and industry best practices, we recognized a pressing need. Drawing from our vast experience and the challenges we’ve seen teams face, we conceived ComputedField. Tailored to biotech teams, we simplify the transition to Benchling and also support its efficient, long-term management.
Today, as ComputedField, we proudly support innovative biotech teams, in their digital transformations, empowering them to prioritize their core objective – pioneering breakthroughs in biotechnology.
