What Paris Labs Need in Colony Management Software
- Cloud-native deployment: browser-based access with no server to provision, important for labs embedded in larger institutions with centralized IT.
- Institutional SSO: SAML-based single sign-on and SCIM provisioning for labs operating under hospital or university IT governance.
- Compliance-ready records: structured audit trails, protocol-to-animal linking, and one-click data exports for inspection readiness.
- Multi-species support: Paris research spans species, software should handle them all in one platform.
- Transparent pricing: published pricing in CAD (with currency conversion available), no quote-only enterprise sales cycle.
Why Colony.care Fits Paris Labs
Colony.care was built for this kind of research environment. It deploys in under two minutes, no server to provision, no IT project required. SSO/SAML and SCIM come with the Lab tier, not as an enterprise line item. The indefinite audit trail, IACUC protocol linking and one-click data exports are built for the compliance standards Paris labs work under. And the free tier means your lab can try it with your own colony data before committing.
QR code cage cards print from any browser. The breeding calendar, pedigree visualization and automated per-diem billing work the same way whether you are a small academic group or a large institute. When your colony grows, the platform scales with you, additional projects are CA$34.99/mo each.
