We continously expand the connectibility of VisioNize to further products. Please check our website for current information: www.eppendorf.com/visionize

VisioNize is a cloud-based software, wherefore no software installation is needed. VisioNize-onboard devices just need to be integrated into your IT network and have to be onboarded to the VisioNize Digital Lab Space. Everything you need to know to follow the different steps can be found here: www.eppendorf.com/visionize-setup

VisioNize can help you improving your lab efficiency by monitoring your devices, introducing advanced notification to report on errors, alarms, and user interactions as well as recurring maintenance tasks. And Eppendorf seeks to continously develop further features for its digital platform.

Lab Managers taking care of the device asset should act as Digital Lab Space administrators. The administrator can add and delete additional users giving them the opportunity to monitor devices and subscribe for notifications.

2. Or check whether your devices are connected to your local network via a network cable.
3. Or check if the ethernet plug in your rooms are functional (contact your IT department)
