    Lensmate software by Optek

    has anyone used this lab software?? How does it perform. Thinking about using it in a medium application. I have been trying to download the demo but have had no luck tonight.

    I had to call the office for help to get it downloaded. I'm not using it, but it does look interesting.

    I am used to working with DVI, how does it compare???? I'm looking for an application for a small independent wholesale lab.

    Fezz,

    I've been there and done that......just need to explore avenues that could be open. Thinking about getting into business for myself with some long time associates, a specialty lab.

    It's different than DVI, but you might like it better.

    Still do at times, it's just as accurate. The problem is a lot of these kids have never learned how to do it without a computer.

    I'm going to give Optek a call tomorrow to complete the demo installation. Looking for software to run a few generator, a bit of tray tracking, billing, shipping. I have heard that it will export into an accounting application.

    Our tight fisted accountant here found that it would work with Excel and Peachtree.
