My Take
personally used this software and it was ok. I didn't like the fact that I couldn't get a refund after dropping my BIO class. The first week we had to do two simulations which automatically disqualifies me for a refund. However I dropped the class with more than enough time for the refund date for my college. $99 is a lot for many community colleges student. The refund policy is too harsh.

Labster excellent for microbiology virtual lab
The following is a list describing why I use Labster:
1. 20+ Virtual labs for microbiology, and many other topic areas
2. Easy to set up and use
3. Virtual labs delve deep into subject matter, ie. Immunology
4. Topics help meet course objectives
5. Virtual labs give students a "laboratory experience" when otherwise there would be no experience at all
6. Customer service is fast and effective
7. Instructor can simply observe student progress
The only issue that I have run across is the campus computer system does not support Labster, therefore I must ask my students to use the WiFi with their private devices. Most devices are now compatible with Labster.
