History

Dotmatics' origins trace back to Merck Sharp and Dohme, a multinational pharmaceutical company, where, in the early 2000s, Merck staff developed what later became Dotmatics' browser and gateway software. Dotmatics Limited was founded in 2005 as a spin-out[2] when Merck closed the site. The company was established with the intent to address the information needs of scientists in the biotech/pharma space.[3]

Software and use

Dotmatics develops web-based tools for querying, browsing, managing, and sharing scientific data and documents.[14]

The Informatics Suite is all the software packaged into one integrated suite.[18]
