Currently there are many tools with similar functionality to RxPlora. However, our competitors have primarily focused on building premium products for large pharmaceuticals or very well funded academic labs – ignoring a large segment of the market. RxPlora is positioned as a cost-effective, no-frills solution for emerging biotech companies and smaller academic labs. The competitor solution comes with a high dollar price that is not affordable and with tons of features that small to medium labs do not need.
