“ I have to say this is the best software package I have ever used. Finally, I can get rid of all the excel spreadsheets and look at a nice overview of my data. ”

“ Any researcher involved in MS/MS based proteomics should have Scaffold, period. ”

“Scaffold has proven invaluable in helping explain experimental results to our clients from large proteomics experiments. The visualization tools make it easy for our clients to understand complex MS/MS comparative analyses. Additionally, because Scaffold is so easy to use, it has greatly decreased the amount of time that it takes our lab to prepare experiment reports. Scaffold has quickly become our standard method to visualize, validate, and share MS/MS proteomics data with our clients. ”

“Compiling individual data sets to build a proteome database and add statistical analysis to compiled data sets required months of tedium using current free-ware and add-on utilities. We recently duplicated these efforts using Scaffold and were able to compile our database with statistical analysis within hours. Further, the data loading structure of Scaffold is dynamic, thus as we gain information on expression profiles we can update our proteome database. File export functions then allow us to rapidly annotate this proteome database with descriptors (such as structural and functional annotations) of the proteins in the database. In summary, Scaffold has become a significant asset to our research and reagent discovery program”

“As a core lab, one of our missions is to educate and empower end users -- Scaffold is ideal for this purpose. Scaffold presents results in an intuitive and easy-to-understand format, and the free Scaffold viewer enables researchers to view and analyze their own data.”

“I tried really hard to be as conservative as possible, but I still could not stop Scaffold from improving my results!”

“I can already see that Scaffold is really going to be a help in organizing and reviewing our data.”

“Scaffold, along with its statistical evaluation, has given us a way to confidently filter our SEQUEST results. Definitely if you use SEQUEST we would recommend Scaffold to display and organize your results.”

“Our group produces large amounts of data that is difficult to control, catalogue and analyse. To carry out shotgun proteomics techniques we had to load the MS/MS data manually, which proved both labour intensive and error prone. We tested 'Scaffold' and found that making comparisons between our samples was simple and fast. The most impressive part was that we didn't need to access the help function once, as the software was so intuitive.”
