Oxford Nanopore Support Plans
)
Maximise performance. Minimise downtime.
Your Oxford Nanopore sequencing device is built to deliver the deepest level of multiomic insights with a single technology. To keep the device performing at its best, our Support Plans offer responsive, expert help when you need it. You can also choose to go further — adding priority assistance, proactive health checks, training, and audit support so that your research stays on track, without interruption.
No matter your field, academic, clinical research, industrial applications, or biopharma, our Support Plans help you get the most from your device.
All our Support Plans enable you to focus on your science — reduce downtime frustration, get help when you need it, access our expertise, and avoid unplanned repair or replacement costs.
Our Enhanced Support Plan goes further for labs whose operations are time-critical, quality-managed, or regulated — minimise downtime with the highest priority support, maintain operational efficiency with proactive device checks and staff training, and streamline certifications with documentation support.
