WinList™ |
TestimonialsStarting as a student in the lab of Dr. Cees Cornelisse in Leiden, The Netherlands, I worked with an ICP22 and had to calculate the DNA index and S-phase manually from histograms plotted on calibrated paper. The introduction of the FACScan allowed us to experiment with multiparameter DNA analysis. The combined use of WinList and ModFit was a blessing from the sky. Currently, we perform multiparameter DNA flow cytometry on a daily base using ModFit and WinList for analysis. Especially the collaboration with "The Guys from Verity" is inspiring and results in a continuum of sophisticated improvements of WinList and ModFit. Willem E. Corver, PhD "There are several software programs available that can be used to analyze flow cytometry data. I have used WinList since the very first version and found no other software as comprehensive and easy to use. For the analysis of multicolor data of any number of parameters, WinList version 6 has it all." Carleton C. Stewart, "We are a high volume, clinical flow lab with many WinList users, and we have tested all of the commercially available list mode analysis programs. Only WinList with its unstructured yet intuitive approach provides the robust flexibility, utility and reliability that allow us to get through our work efficiently." David Miller, MD, "I've been using WinList since version 2.0 (1992); I still have the original 5.25 inch floppy disks. I've never tried any other off-line analysis software because I've never had to. The technical support from VSH is unparalleled. The application does what I need, and in cases where it hasn't, Verity Software House has always addressed my concerns. Using this application is why I do flow cytometry; if I didn't have it to use, I'd be doing something else." Marc Langweiler, DVM, PhD, “Software should never enter the equation when a researcher begins experimental design. With WinList 6.0 the only limit is the researcher's imagination...." Keith Shults "ModFit and WinList are two great flow cytometric programs, backed by a company with a strong commitment to customer service and satisfaction." Paul K. Wallace, PhD,
Director of Flow Cytometry "I have been using WinList to perform listmode analysis of clinical flow cytometry cases for almost 20 years. To put it mildly, I can't imagine having to use another brand of software to take care of this very important procedure. I have tried other vendors’ analytical software and in my opinion WinList surpasses the rest in a number of different ways. For example, the Windows-based version has complete functionality that we are all used to, i.e. pull-down menus, right-left-click features, ease of use with other Windows-based software such as EXCEL and Word. Three words best describe how strong this software is: 1. Easy to use. Protocols that are simple to setup can be saved and for every panel you use whether it's 1, 3, or 20 files or more WinList analyzes, compiles the histograms and statistics, creates a beautiful multicolor report, and then you can print it, save it for retrieval later, or electronically export it into your labs LIS or other software program. 2. Flexible: whether you run a two-color instrument or a 13-color instrument it doesn't matter because WinList will handle an unlimited number of detected signals and allow infinite 1, 2, or 3-parameter histograms. 3. Fast: WinList analysis shortens our analysis time to mere minutes with the many functions and gating tools that can give you unlimited color printouts or electronic reports no matter how extensive or complicated the caseload is. Probably the thing I like best about using WinList is the customer service and personal attention the folks at Verity provide. Whenever I have a question or need instruction on a new feature they are more than happen to assist me. You don't talk to an answering machine; instead, you get a live and friendly technical specialist that will be more than happy to assist you. All you have to do is try it out. The answer to listmode analysis will be loud and clear. WinList is the best, hands-down." Bruce Greig, MT(ASCP) QCYM, "WinList software has become a vital tool in all of our Poly-Chromatic Flow Cytometry applications. With advanced functions such as FCOM, for rapid transformation into Cluster analysis platforms, our lab can process and compare complex data in hours not months! Verity Software House has provided amazing customer and technical assistance that helped us get moving. Many thanks, VSH" Daniel Haley, Flow Cytometry Specialist “Using WinList is like opening a treasure trove – it is chockfull of special features that complement the basic operations. The program is fun to learn and easy to use. Most of all, the Verity Software House team is keenly responsive to users’ input." Teresa S. Hawley, B.S. "WinList, wow! What an incredibly versatile and powerful tool! I came to my present position in 1994 as the director of the Nashville VA Clinical Flow Cytometry Lab and VA / Vanderbilt Flow Cytometry Research Core. My predecessor, Wayne Greene, introduced me to WinList at that time and I have used it almost exclusively since that time. I've given brief trials to several alternative FC softwares, but always find that WinList can perform all of the essentials as well if not better than the others. Part of my job has been to instruct hemepath clinical residents in clinical flow cytometric analysis and interpretation of Leukemia and Lymphoma. WinList has been an incredible teaching tool for this purpose. I've saved literally hundreds of WinList MultiGraphs showing analytic examples of various Leukemia / Lymphoma disease processes. The MultiGraphs are color coded to show gating selections and provide a ready library of examples – instantly ready to be shared with residents. WinList histograms, dot plots, and/or results can easily be dropped into PowerPoint for that last minute presentation, or saved in MultiGraphs until you're ready to compile graphics for your clinical or research paper – a great time saver. WinList has also been an excellent solution for analysis of research data for the hundreds of investigators that have used our core over the past 15 years. WinList is so intuitive. Compared with some of the other softwares I've tried, WinList takes very little time to become productively proficient. So, as I've gotten busier over the years, I've encouraged any researcher I can to do their own analysis. Within an hour or two of training, they are off on their own: constructing and saving protocols, batching data, constructing Boolean gates, back gating, color coding, selecting histogram style (dots, 3D rotation, isopleths, density gradients, etc), selecting statistics, saving MultiGraphs, producing overlays, and saving data for presentations / publications. Another powerful tool is the unique interface of WinList with ModFit. Many researchers have combined these two programs to simultaneously evaluate Tunnel assays, or cyclins or oncogenes, or other protein expressions together with DNA Cell Cycle. I generally find that the only limiting factor is my imagination. I give WinList my highest recommendation – it's great!” Jim Price, Ph.D. |
