I want to record location of frozen samples from experiments, and easily retrieve the information/sample. Would also use software for locating and tracking frozen cell stocks and plasmid stocks.
A simple spreadsheet (Excel, LibreOffice Calc...) can do that, but requires discipline when checking samples in or out. My experience with check-out of poisonous or radioactive compounds indicates that this is often a problem even with paper sheets. If people have to go to the computer, take off their gloves, boot the machine and open the file, the problem may become even larger.
Are you working in a GLP or GMP environment?
I visited a lab where they used Freezerworks software and it worked very well, you could print labels for the tubes with barcodes, etc., but I think its paid. (https://freezerworks.com/)
Hi, what about these ones? some of them allow you to do more than record also barcoding, and adding extra info--

I have developed a software for sample storage management and other laboratory apps that were designed for internal use and I am staring to open it for external users at very accessible prices. You can check them at: https://www.locatorapps.com/
