Instrument works well, software is a nightmare to administer and manage.
Microbiology
The instrument works very well and customer service is quick to respond and very helpful. The software (Vitek version 9.0) is easy to use, but it is not very well suited for a GxP environment. The software is not easy to administer/manage. Version 9 is supposed to be LDAP capable, but it is not. Three different user accounts are necessary to use the software. I give the software one star.

Very satisfied with the instrument
microbiology
The Vitek Compact is very easy and reliable to use. The new software update I feel is not as user friendly as the old software version. Other than that the instrument is very reliable and well worth the money

Reliable, easy to use, & fast TAT. Our primary instrument for susceptibility testing.
Identification and susceptibility of bacteria
Vitek 2 gives reproducible results. It is easy to use, maintenance can be performed in a relatively short amount of time. Vitek 2 is our lab's primary instrument for identification and susceptibility testing. The results are reliable and are available faster than our backup systems. Testing is set up on the morning shift and the results are available for release by our evening shift.

Integral to microbiology lab
Medical microbiology
Quite integral to any laboratory doing microbiology work. It is almost completely automated and works wonderfully. It takes care of NH & anaerobic organisms as well vs. it's some of its competitors. Widely available in any market and hence, supply is not an issue. Additionally, post-sale support is excellent too. Scalable option.
