What Our Customers Are Saying
“After using GENEWIZ AAV synthesis and packaging services for over a dozen projects this past year, I’m still impressed with the high-quality of viral particles and the speed of consultative support, getting responses within hours rather than days. It’s rare to find partners like Cassandra and the project management team that combine both technical rigor and exceptional service…GENEWIZ delivers both. Thanks for supporting my research in gene therapy and regenerative medicine!”
“GENEWIZ provides superior customer service. Whenever I have any questions/concerns, I get answer from them promptly after I reach you. Besides, if there’s any issue with my order, they contact me as soon as possible to solve the problem. Other than the Plasmid EZ/colony EZ, I have been using their service for 20 years. It’s always been a pleasant experience. Thank you for all your support throughout these years!”
“After six years (and counting) of working side by side on everything from impossible timelines and beta-testing programs to pioneering, ambitious, and highly challenging ideas, they’ve never disappointed me. Their science, QC, and support are outstanding, but what truly sets them apart is their people. They’ve built a team of exceptional individuals who care deeply about the mission and your projects.”
