Looking for a Drlogy alternative?

Drlogy pathology lab software is cloud-based (web & mobile). Here is what changes if your lab moves to SamLab, what to carry across, and when staying with Drlogy is the right call.

Why labs look around

Four questions, whichever system you run today

What happens when the connection drops

Any LIS decision starts here. SamLab keeps registration, results, reports and billing running on your own PC; Drlogy states its deployment as "Cloud-based (web & mobile)" — ask what its outage behaviour is for the option you are offered.

How the price is structured

Drlogy: Not published — "Call for Free Demo & Pricing"; the vendor also names a lifetime free plan (checked 2026-09-17). SamLab: a one-time licence with an optional yearly AMC, every plan price on the public pricing page. Compare like with like over three years, not one.

Who holds the data at exit

Before you leave any system, get its export in writing. In SamLab the database is a file on your own machine, and the standard backup is a ZIP that restores without a passphrase.

Who answers when something breaks

Ask both vendors whether support is on the phone, in Hindi and English, and included. SamLab support is included in every plan, from Kota.

Carrying your data across

Three things to do before the first live day

  1. 1Get an export from your current software — patients, doctors, rate list, outstanding dues — one sheet per master, and check what your contract says about your data.
  2. 2Pick one cut-off date the whole lab knows: bills before it stay in the old system, bills from it are in SamLab.
  3. 3Run the 7-day trial on your own exported data first, so the first live day is the second time you see your patients in it.
What moves, what does not — the migration page

Stay with Drlogy if

you run several healthcare verticals on reliable internet and want a single online suite.

Move to SamLab if

you run a diagnostic or pathology lab and want offline reliability, one-time pricing and deep analyzer/NABL features.

Questions labs ask

Before you switch

Is SamLab a Drlogy alternative for a small laboratory?

Drlogy is a broad, cloud-based healthcare suite spanning pathology, hospital, clinic, pharmacy, dental and radiology. If you want one online platform across many verticals and have reliable internet, it is worth a demo. But if your lab must keep billing and reporting running through outages — and you prefer a one-time price over an ongoing subscription — SamLab’s offline-first design fits better.

Can I bring my data from Drlogy pathology lab software into SamLab?

Masters — patients, doctors, rate lists, outstanding balances — come across from an export of your current system. Migration is a hands-on service with a written cut-off date, not a self-serve importer; the migration page says exactly what moves and what does not.

How does SamLab pricing differ from Drlogy?

Drlogy: Not published — "Call for Free Demo & Pricing"; the vendor also names a lifetime free plan (checked 2026-09-17). SamLab publishes every plan on its pricing page — a one-time licence with an optional yearly AMC — and the 7-day trial needs no card.

Comparison methodology: competitor details are taken from each vendor’s own public website and product documentation, as read on the date shown on the page; features and pricing change, so confirm them with the vendor and in your own trial. We compare capabilities a buyer can verify, not internals, and where a vendor does not say something the cell says so. Competitor names are trademarks of their respective owners, used only to identify the product being compared. This page is published by Sammed Technosol for information and implies no affiliation with or endorsement by any vendor named. SamLab pricing reflects our published plans.
