An all-in-one data acquisition and analysis solution to get from reader set-up to results faster.

Preconfigured protocols and custom assay workflows simplify microplate data acquisition and analysis. 
 
SoftMax® Pro Software is designed to provide the simplicity, flexibility and power required for advanced data analysis. It provides ready-to-run protocols, analysis algorithms, and 21 different curve fit options. Every step is optimized for data acquired from a Molecular Devices microplate reader or data imported from another source to simplify analysis and reporting. Compliance tools are available for regulated laboratories providing end-to-end chain of custody. 
 
Built-in protocols 
Use over 160 protocols with preconfigured assay parameters for a wide variety of common assays including protocols for our entire suite of reagents, SpectraTest® Validation Plates, and adapter plates. 
 
Advanced reader control 
Build custom assay workflow, run multitask kinetics, and pause and resume kinetic reads with the discontinuous kinetics feature. 
 
Flexible calculations 
Data analysis features are available such as 21 different curve fit options, simplified cross-plate analysis and interpolation, and automatic calculations of relative potency, EC50, and Z factors. 
 
Project management made easy 
Group multiple plate reads in one protocol. Display results, conditional pass/fail statements, mini graphs, and images in the notes section for easy viewing of overall project results. 
 
Secure electronic recordkeeping 
Controlled user access is provided through a granular permission structure and unique logins with electronic signature support for verification, authorization, and approval, including audit trails. 
 
Validation tools reduce cost 
Extensive suite of microplate reader validation tools can reduce the cost and time of validation by 50% when compared to using multiple platforms to collect and analyze data. 
 
Other features and benefits include:
