SnapGene is so easy to use that my lab adopted it instantly. It saves a lot of time and money as we now do all our cloning in SnapGene first and catch any snags in the strategy before they hold us up.

SnapGene is AMAZING. Designing cloning strategies is incredibly easy and so quick! The In-Fusion simulations have literally saved me days worth of time. The maps look fantastic. I am completely sold!

SnapGene is awesome. It is straightforward enough to start using right away, yet rich with sophisticated features that cover all of my cloning needs. I recommend this software to anyone who clones DNA.

SnapGene is a most excellent and very intuitive software, and I keep discovering additional useful features. I have tried MANY software packages, none of them even comes close to SnapGene!
