ACLS has transformed how we manage our lab. The efficiency and security it provides are unmatched. As a long-standing user of ACLS, I have seen first-hand the evolution of this excellent tool over the many years. The dedication and attention to detail shown by Dong Ming and his team cannot be commended strongly enough. The ACLS development team is always on the lookout for new challenges coming from highly diverse user base, thus ensuring it is simply the best, most versatile, instrument booking and management tool available on the market, no matter the complexity of your unit, group, or research organisation.

Before ACLS, we struggled with tracking consumables and equipment usage. Now, everything is automated, saving us valuable time and resources. At the Institute for Frontier Materials (IFM) at Deakin University, we rely on ACLS to book our laboratory equipment, recover costs through hourly charge rates, manage collection of laboratory waste, record lab instrument training and order lab consumables. During strict Covid restrictions it provided a mechanism to safely book access to laboratories and offices which allowed our researchers to continue their work in a Covid-safe way.

ACLS has completely changed how we manage our research facility. Scheduling, compliance, and inventory tracking are now seamless. As an existing user of ACLS for about fifteen years, the Engineering Analytical Facility (EAF) in The University of Sydney has witnessed the continuous evolution, improvement, and optimization of this system. Always with a focus on our clients' needs in mind, ACLS has consistently delivered timely solutions for our ever-expanding scope of services. The flexibility of the software modules caters to our day-to-day needs and ensures future-proofing for the expansion of EAF's service capabilities.

A 21st century solution that is employed by a multitude of institutes and universities across Australia and beyond, it offers an excellent platform for the user, support staff and the manager. Whether it's, maintaining training certificates, converting usage into cost recovery or an app for a smart phone for easy access to an instrument, ACLS has it all.

ACLS plays a key role in our overall aim of optimizing the use of high-end research infrastructure at UNSW. It helps us make this infrastructure as accessible as possible to both new and experienced researchers. It also provides important data to lab and facility managers, to assist in operational and strategic planning.

The ACLS provides centres offering access to instrumentation across a diverse and distributed user base an excellent 'back office' management system that allows seamless control of instruments, researchers and commercial clients. In the current climate of fiscal control and accountability it is an invaluable asset in the management of facilities and their various reporting requirements and in enhancing the productivity of such laboratories.

The ACLS system is one of the leading advanced facility management tools available and it is now used in laboratories across Australia and the world. ACLS is recognised for the unparalleled support it provides as a management tool for large multi-user research facilities.
