The AP-Visions team is focused 100% on Laboratory Data Management. That is where our expertise is and we do it well.
The AP-Visions development team has been developing Laboratory Information System products for many years! AP-Visions is constantly updating and enhancing our products to keep abreast of industry changes and responding to our customers’ requirements and needs. Occasionally there is a desire for a feature that is not currently available in a product. Our team takes these requests very seriously and, in general, the desired feature appears in the next product update.
While all of our products are very comprehensive, with all the features expected by the modern clinical laboratory, they are amazingly easy to use.
Our products span any size clinical laboratory from the very small single instrument lab to a very large multi-facility institution. All with the very same software!
Our sales support team is dedicated to ensuring we understand your specific needs and meet expectations consistent with your requirements. Their job is not to “Sell” but to consult with you to help you determine if our products are the right fit for your lab. If we don’t have a product that is the right fit to meet your expectations and requirements, we will tell you so. There is no advantage to misguiding you just to make the sale!
We define Deployment as getting your product configured, installed, validated, your personnel trained, and supporting the product long term.
AP-Visions takes an industry-unique approach to this end. Suffice it to say the same person that installs your product, configures your product, and trains your people IS THE SAME PERSON THAT SUPPORTS YOUR PRODUCT! They understand your workflow, your business and your people. Support is always from a live person (the Deployment Associate) and not “Leave a message and someone, who does not understand your unique situation, will get back to you in a few days” – maybe!
In addition, every customer is assigned a Project Manager whose responsibility is: to set timelines for deployment with you, gather configuration information, and work with the Deployment Associate to bring things to the ultimate goal of meeting your expectations and of your lab running live.
AP-Visions offers two types of deployment: “On-Line” where everything is done over the Internet and, “On-Site” where the Deployment Associate comes to your facility. “On-Line” is, of course, the most cost effective approach and is suitable for almost all customers.
AP-Visions offers a wide range of products and options that meet the needs and expectations of any sized laboratory. The product summaries below give you a high level overview and “READ MORE” gives you more detail.

September 17, 2024 – Purchased 10/2015 – “As a small pediatric practice, we needed a solution to get orders from our EMR and send our CBC results back to the EMR. We didn’t need or want all the bells and whistles that come with an LIS and we certainty did not want the cost! AP-Visions xEmr Plus did the job and at a cost we could afford. As a bonus, when in those very few times we had any issues, support has been impeccable and very fast to respond. I would recommend AP-Visions and the xEmr Plus to any small practice just needing an easy-to-use product that will not break the bank.”

AP-Visions’ team configured our xLab as we needed it, installed the software, helped us validate all of our interfaces, and provided training consistent with our schedule. Best of all, when training was done and we started using xLab, it just worked!”

AP-Visions takes a unique approach. At purchase time, AP-Visions assigns a Deployment Associate that will: Install the software, configure your system, and train your people. The same Deployment Associate will be your primary contact for support. They will already know your unique workflow, your people, and how your system was configured. Getting support is hassle free and there is no need to go through a lengthy process of explaining your workflow to someone new.
In addition, AP-Visions assigns a Project Manager that is responsible for guiding you and your people through the process including: time-lines, information needed, and setting the schedule for the ultimate “Go-Live.”
AP-Visions takes a unique approach to support. All AP-Visions support people are based in the US and are easy to understand. The same person that installed and configured your software, trained your people and have a complete working knowledge of your workflow, is your primary contact for support. No more “filling out a support ticket”, waiting for someone to finally get back to you. AP-Visions provides live phone support always! Getting support is hassle free and there is no need to go through a lengthy process of explaining your workflow to someone new.
The AP-Visions sales team approach with any potential customer as a “consultant”. They listen to what you want, your expectations, and your long term goals. They then put together a clear sales quotation in response to those wants and expectations and in some cases, they may even tell you that we do not have a product that will meet your expectations.
Our quotations are unique in the sense that they not only clearly spell out what you are getting and it cost but also, specifically, what you are not getting. Other than the number of instruments, what host interfaces, and the number of workstations you want, there are only four “options”. These are options only because not all labs need or want the functionality.
