The short answer
Labmate is the established, install-it-yourself choice. ClinikPe is the newer, subscribe-and-go choice. Most labs decide on how they want to pay and how much they want to manage.
Choose ClinikPe if
- You want a published price with no AMC escalation
- You'd rather not manage a server or pay for engineer visits
- Referring doctors drive your business and you want commission calculated automatically
- You also run OPD or want doctors on a free app
Choose Labmate if
- You need a detailed QC module with Westgard rules today
- You want the software installed on your own server
- You need radiology (RIS/PACS) or hospital modules from the same vendor
- You value a vendor with decades of installations
Either will do if
You're a single lab that wants barcodes, reports on your letterhead, analyzer interfacing for a few machines and offline working. Both can do this; compare total cost over 3 years and how each looks to your staff.

Where Labmate is stronger
Labmate has been in Indian labs for a long time, and it shows in a few places ClinikPe can't match yet.
-
Quality control depth
Labmate QC has Westgard rules and Levey-Jennings charts, delta checks and three-level authentication, built around ISO 15189 and ISO 17025.
-
Install it where you want
On your own server, in your data centre or hosted by Busysoft, with remote sites that keep working and sync later.
-
A product for every department
Radiology (Dimager), hospital (Hospmate), clinic (Docmate) and inventory products, plus apps for collectors, B2B partners and pathologists.
-
Track record
Busysoft says it has been building software since 1988 and has tens of thousands of clients across India, Asia, the Middle East and Africa.
Where ClinikPe is different
ClinikPe is for labs that would rather subscribe than own and maintain a system, and that grow through local doctors.
-
You know the price before you call
Pro is βΉ14,999 a year, Growth βΉ59,999, Desktop βΉ19,999 one-time. No AMC percentage, no yearly increase written into the terms, and no per-user charge at one location.
-
Offline without a server
ClinikPe Desktop runs on one Windows PC with no internet, and LAN extra PCs cost βΉ3,000 each. Move to the cloud free when you're ready.
-
Referral commission and a free doctor app
Pro calculates each referring doctor's commission and shows revenue by doctor. Doctors can use ClinikPe free for prescriptions and OPD.
-
Set up remotely, no engineer visits
Setup, migration and training are free and done online. Support is on WhatsApp from Kolkata.
