NovoPath Cloud-Based LIS for Reference Laboratories
Get the Cloud You Were Promised. Built for Your Reference Lab From the Ground Up.
Most systems that call themselves cloud are a single-tenant application lifted onto a remote machine. You still run your own version. You still schedule downtime for upgrades. And when you add a site, you inherit one more copy to keep in sync. That is cloud-hosted, and it carries the same version drift and upgrade risk that reference labs moved to the cloud to escape.
NovoPath was built as true SaaS from the start. One cloud-native platform, multi-tenant on Microsoft Azure, where every site runs the same current version and upgrades happen without taking the lab offline. For a reference laboratory running around the clock across multiple sites and clients, that difference is the whole point.

Your Reference Lab Runs Every Hour of Every Day.
Your LIS Should Never Ask You to Stop So It Can Catch Up.
Case volume climbs. Client accounts multiply. New sites come online. Every one of those is a reason your platform has to scale cleanly, and a reason version drift and scheduled downtime become expensive fast. When one site is on last quarter’s build and another is mid-upgrade, your turnaround, your reporting, and your compliance posture all fragment.
The reference labs that scale well are the ones running a single current version everywhere, on infrastructure that grows with them. NovoPath gives labs a cloud-native foundation where adding volume, a client, or a site is a standardized step, not a fresh deployment to babysit.
What We Hear from Reference Labs Before They Make a Change.
Our "Cloud" LIS Still Schedules Downtime
The system lives on a remote server, but upgrades still take the lab offline. For a lab running nights and weekends, there is no good window.
Every Site Is on a Slightly Different Version
Multi-site groups end up maintaining several builds at once. Reports, rules, and integrations drift apart, and QA gets harder every quarter.
Upgrades Are a Project, Not a Process
Each release means planning, testing, and vendor coordination measured in weeks. Improvements arrive late because the upgrade itself is the bottleneck.
We Cannot Prove Our Security Posture at Scale
Patient data has to be encrypted, access-controlled, and patched everywhere at once. When each site patches on its own schedule, the lab is exposed.
Adding a Site Takes Months
Standing up a new location should be a repeatable rollout, not a new server, a new install, and a new version to track.
Ready to improve your lab's workflows?
NovoPath addresses all of this the way a true SaaS platform should, by removing the versions, the downtime, and the drift instead of managing them.

True SaaS, Built for Reference Labs. One Platform. Every Site. One Version.
Meet NovoPath's Cloud-Native Architecture
NovoPath runs as true SaaS on Microsoft Azure. It is not an on-premise system relocated to a server. It is a multi-tenant platform designed so that scale, uptime, and security are the infrastructure’s job, not your IT team’s.
- One version, every site. Multi-tenant architecture means every location runs the same current build. Standardized upgrades reach all of them at once, so there is no version drift to reconcile across a reference lab network.
- Upgrades without the outage. New releases are applied on managed infrastructure with rollback safety, so improvements arrive continuously instead of through weekend downtime windows.
- Azure security, proven at scale. Encryption in transit and at rest, role-based access control, and HIPAA-aligned controls are patched centrally across every tenant, so no site is left running something out of date.
NovoPath gives reference labs a platform that scales with the business instead of a deployment that multiplies with it.
Every Capability Built to Solve a Real Problem in Your Reference Lab.
Cloud-Native SaaS Architecture
True multi-tenant SaaS on Microsoft Azure, not a single-tenant application hosted remotely.

What Running a Growing Reference Lab Feels Like With NovoPath.
Growing Multi-Site Practice Westlake Dermatology grew case volume 35% over three years on NovoPath, without re-platforming and without pulling sites onto different versions to do it. The cloud-native foundation absorbed the growth instead of resisting it.

Your Reference Lab Was Built to Scale.
Your LIS Should Scale With It.
NovoPath is more than cloud-based pathology software. It is a true SaaS foundation for reference laboratories: one current version across every site, upgrades that never take you offline, and Azure-grade security applied everywhere at once, so your lab can add volume, clients, and locations without inheriting a version-control problem.
NovoPath Has Done This Before.
Built by pathology people, for pathology labs. With 30 years and hundreds of labs to prove it.
