Software for keeping track on lab strain collections?

[Beth Ladd]

>We are at the moment considering to build a multiuser computer
>based strain registration system, since our old fasioned "strain 
>log book" no longer works due to the number of strains we have, 
>and the number of persons using it.

>We are interested in a flexible, multiuser system, with extended
>copying facilities, automatic lognumber designation, automatic 
>location designation, etc.
>If you know of such systems I will be happy to know.

Finn:

Our company offers two software products that may have what 
you're looking for:  FreezerWorks for the PC and Mittens for the 
Mac.  Both are multi-user systems: the FreezerWorks Network 
version sells for $795, the Mittens program sells for $595, but 
you must own network 4-D to run it for multiple users (network 
4-D sells for about $1200).  See our web site at 
http://www.dwdev.com for more details.
