At SCIEX we are committed to providing you with the most up-to-date tools and technologies to meet the evolving needs of the laboratory. As part of that commitment, we were introducing our software product roadmap towards Windows 10 compatibility back in 2017. Many of you are making long-term investments in SCIEX technologies, and we recognize how important it is for you to have visibility of new features coming down the road. As of February 2019, we can proudly announce that our complete suite of software solutions supports the Microsoft Windows 10 operating system (OS).
Our internal roadmap is a living document – it changes weekly to adapt quickly, respond to demand, capture opportunities, and optimize resources. While this roadmap was subject to change and we were not able to provide exact estimates or timelines on feature releases we hope it helped provide some insight into when individual SCIEX applications were made available on Windows 10.
Future-Proof Your System by Moving to Windows 10Presumably, you are aware that as of January 14, 2020, Microsoft will no longer support the Windows 7 OS. Therefore, your organization may already have started or completed the migration process to Windows 10, securing that you will receive continued support from Microsoft, 64-bit computing capabilities, and the peace of mind that comes with working in a more secure lab environment.
As your laboratory moves on to Windows 10, you will be required to purchase new acquisition PCs for instrument control. Since we do not want your computer to hold you back, SCIEX has created a solution for a seamless upgrade, the new SCIEX Alpha Workstation 2020 has just launched. Find out more about the benefits of getting up to speed with an upgrade to Windows 10 and to take advantage of our special upgrade programs.
Upgrading Analyst® Software for Compatibility with Windows 10 As always, our roadmap is completely defined by building the best product we can for you. Contact us anytime, if you have questions about the Windows 10 upgrade path or want to learn how to increase your lab’s productivity with our Windows 10 compatible software suite.
Regulated laboratories are evolving faster than ever. New analytical modalities, higher sample throughput, increasing regulatory scrutiny, and leaner teams are reshaping how work gets done. At the same time, expectations for data integrity, standardization, and operational efficiency continue to increase complexity and/or scope. In this environment, LC-MS software is no longer simply an instrument control platform—it has become a critical part of a laboratory’s quality management system. The question is no longer whether your lab has changed, but whether your software has evolved to support the way regulated labs operate today, and if they are ready and able to meet the demands, they will face tomorrow.
Analyst software has long been a trusted foundation in regulated LC-MS laboratories—and for many, it still performs reliably today. But regulated environments are evolving faster than ever. As labs transition to Windows 11, strengthen cybersecurity policies, modernize IT infrastructure, and prepare for future compliance expectations, software decisions are no longer just about what works today—they’re about managing tomorrow’s risk. Analyst will not be supported on Windows 11. While some labs may continue operating in unsupported environments temporarily, the bigger question is: when that risk becomes reality, will your lab be reacting under pressure—or executing a planned mitigation strategy with confidence?
As regulatory scrutiny increases and detection requirements tighten, laboratories are facing a new question: How can TFA be measured reliably, sensitively, and at scale?
