Why our customers love working with buddy

“We were also impressed by the bAhead team’s service and response time. bAhead was able to access Buddy remotely from Hamburg and resolve issues very quickly.”

Kian Mohtachem , Head of Laboratory Management - Labor Berlin – Charité Vivantes Services GmbH

“Before Buddy, scanning and sorting samples was done entirely manually. With several hundred samples per day, this was extremely time-consuming and correspondingly prone to errors.”

Isabelle Schröder, Labororgansiation Microbiology - LADR Laborverbund Dr. Kramer & Kollegen

“Thanks to its compact size, Buddy can easily be placed on the table alongside other devices and, unlike other robots, doesn’t need to be housed in a separate enclosure.”

Birgit Hagenah, Head of Operational and Organizational Development - Labor Dr. Heidrich
