"With Gene Inspector, users can manage sequence analysis projects from beginning to end. The unique electronic notebook format of Gene Inspector gives researchers the ability to organize diverse yet interrelated types of information." ...
" The many features found in the notebook make it a powerful tool for organizing day-to-day progress." ...
"The most powerful feature of the program is its ability to define suites of analyses that can be saved to perform multiple analyses simultaneously. With it, a standardized set of analysis parameters can be set up once and used again on other input sequences." ...
"Gene Inspector provides a friendly environment for elegantly handling the mounds of information typically gathered during sequence analysis. In contrast to programs that are designed purely for analysis (e.g. MacVector and LaserGene), Gene Inspector's notebook design gives users an environment where they an better define their own custom analyses and format the results in one simple step."

"... Gives biotech firms and universities yet another reason to hang on to their Macs. ... Because it doesn't require users to change their old paper-notebook habits, anyone familiar with sequencing can use it with no training. ...
a lot of molecular biology packed into a single, moderately priced program, and it's all presented in an interface that's nearly self-explanatory. ...
After a quick initial setup, Gene Inspector's notebook links help you produce a research-publication first draft with graphs and appendixes faster than you can read a sequence from a gel. ...
Gene Inspector is one of the best pieces of science software ever released. ... Gene Inspector is an essential component of any molecular-biology lab."
- - Macworld, Sept 1997, review.
"The Gene Inspector introduces a new computing philosophy to the molecular biology laboratory ...
[it] employs what I believe is the new paradigm in molecular biology computing -- Analysis Suites"
- - Biotechnology Software and Internet Journal, Sept./Oct.1996
"The Notebook is extremely useful for data presentation, and for storing, and organizing, results."
- - Biotechnology Software and Internet Journal, Sept./Oct.1996
"The Gene Inspector is a very robust, well thought out software package that is designed to make molecular biologists' bioinformatics tasks easier. ...
If you are looking to buy a new full-featured sequence analysis package for your Macintosh, I heartily recommend inspecting the Gene Inspector."
- - Biotechnology Software and Internet Journal, Sept./Oct.1996
"It really is a wonderful package. In our lab, even the person who has been using GCG for years has decided to switch to Gene Inspector."

"A rich set of notebook features and careful selection of analysis modes make Gene Inspector an essential component of any molecular biology lab."
- MacWorld Review, Sept. 1997.
"The strengths of this program are its ease of use, the functionality of its features, and its unique ability to organize data in ways that are not possible with other programs. Gene Inspector is an excellent program, not only for the sequence analyses that it can perform, but for the working environment that it provides. The program combines many features found in drawing programs, database programs, word processors, and Web browsers to make it a powerful way to work with and present sequence data and analysis output. Managing scans of gel images, raw data, and sequence analysis output are elegantly handled...
The ability to 'hotlink' one's sequence to a set of chosen analysis routines so that all of your output is constantly updated is a great time-saver...
Analysis suites... are extremely useful for academic labs, where the turnover of researchers may be high and new lab workers may be relatively inexperienced...
Gene Inspector is an exceptional program for maintaining an organized compilation of sequence analysis in an electronic notebook format. The ability to have a working environment contained within a single program that allows you to not only do your analyses, but to annotate, construct a formal report, and design slides and posters make this program an asset to anyone faced with the common challenges that arise when working with sequence data."
