"Excellent sensitivity but the software needs to be updated to be more visually appealing and easier to use." |

"Provides good sensitivity, it’s reliable, accurate and the software is easy to use. Drawback is the high cost to maintain." |

"This instrument is easy to use and fast for MRM detection of complex bio samples. It can detect a few femtomole of analyte with nanoLC at the front, in a very satisfactory way." |

"This instrument is easy to use and for most time can produce good quality data. Also it is easy to learn. I am a new user for this instrument and it only took me less than two months to learn how to use it. Although sometimes it may cause some problems but it doesn’t take a long time to fix that. Overall, it is an awesome instrument to help us to move on my project and give me very good data to present. I will definitely recommend this to my colleagues. What I want to know more about this instrument is that how to actually clean the MS part." |

"It is good technology for quantitative analysis. In the past, I supervised people using it in the lab and people were generally happy with the performance." |

"This instrument is very good for trace analysis of organic compounds. The sensitivity is pretty good and easy to operate. We used it to analyze PPCP (pharmaceuticals and personal care products) level in drinking water system. We also used it for the detection of the emergency contaminants like DBPs in Missouri drinking water system. Pros: high sensitivity, reliable quantification. Cons: configuration with some LC systems is very complex." |

"The system is quite stable and easy use. The sensitivity is quite good compare to the other MS systems. However, the service of manufacturer is poor and not professional. Service engineers can only do very limited jobs on the system. Most of engineers claimed the ion path will need to be pull out and cleaned totally every year. Unfortunately, they can not promise the system will be normal after cleaning it. ABSCIEX also raised the price even the system has been released more than a decade." |
