[Histonet] HISTOLOGY COMPUTER SYSTEM

[Blazek, Linda]

I'd like to third the vote for PowerPath.  I don't use it where I am
currently but have used it for the past 6 years from initial install
through a major upgrade.  It's an excellent system.

I would second the vote on PowerPath (IMPAC is the current owner). We 
are a large academic facility with 3 sites. PowerPath was already 
installed when I got here, so I have nothing to compare to. It meets are

needs and where it is lacking, we have been able to customize it 
ourselves. Gotta love the open architecture.

however not knowing the scope of your service, etcetera, another system
could very well meet your needs.
