Low-Priced Whole-Genome Sequencing

Sequencing.com offers clinical-grade, whole-genome sequencing testing for customers who want more detailed and accurate DNA reports. A whole-genome sequencing test analyzes 100 percent of your genome sequence compared to the majority of DNA tests that analyze less than one percent.

You will also find that pricing for the whole-genome sequencing service is competitive with options provided by other companies. 

Easy Collection Method  

The Sequencing.com DNA test kit comes with an easy cheek swab to collect your DNA sample. The cheek swab test is much easier compared to the spit test. The company also has a relatively fast turnaround time.

Results for a regular DNA test can be expected within about four weeks and results for a whole-genome sequencing take about eight weeks on average. 

Free DNA Upload and Download 

If you’ve already taken a DNA test with another company, you can upload your raw data to 
access new reports and information. The company accepts the majority of genetic tests from other brands, making it one of the most compatible DNA upload companies. 

Sequencing.com believes in making the customer the ultimate owner of his or her own data. The company has made it easy for customers to upload, download, and delete raw DNA data on the Sequncing.com site.

This is a great benefit for customers who want full control over their DNA data. Some DNA companies will not let customers download their own DNA data and may share customer data with third parties. 

Largest DNA App Marketplace

Sequncing.com has the largest DNA app marketplace in the world with more than 100 DNA analysis apps. New apps are constantly being added to the site to create an ongoing learning experience.

However, all apps must meet the company’s high standards of reliability and accuracy to be approved. Users can choose from different categories including fitness, lifestyle, health, ancestry, nutrition, children, beauty, and more. 

Sequencing.com released a Coronavirus DNA health report last year that provides personalized information on your risk from coronavirus based on your genome sequence. The app analyzes factors such as your risk of infection, severity, reaction to possible treatments, insights, and updated news. 

Each DNA app comes with a personalized report that provides recommendations based on your DNA sequence. Sequencing.com always recommends speaking with a health care provider if you plan to make significant lifestyle changes based on your results. 

Sequencing.com has a subscription option for those who would like to gain access to a few apps each month. Depending on what DNA analysis apps you choose, purchasing a monthly subscription can help you save money at the DNA app marketplace. You can choose from four different options when using the DNA app marketplace:

• Free Version — If you don’t want to purchase a subscription, you can upload and store your DNA for free. You can access all of the free apps on the marketplace. However, you will need to pay full price for any paid app you wish to access. 
• Silver Membership ($9.99 per month) — An individual with a silver membership has access to two free apps per month. These apps can be chosen from any category. 
• Gold Membership ($29.99 per month) — A gold membership gives users access to four apps of their choosing per month. Users can also opt-in for health-related alerts to receive updates when a new discovery is made. 
• Platinum Membership ($49.99 per month) — The top-tier membership gives you access to six apps per month. Individuals who pay for the platinum subscription can also request genetic counseling sessions to review a specific genetic test. 

Note: the Ultimate DNA Test and the Ultimate Genome Sequencing test both include a free one-month Silver Membership subscription. 

Secure Privacy Policy

Sequencing.com uses encryption technology to protect private user information. In the privacy policy, the company states that no personal information will ever be sold or shared with third-party companies. This promise offers reassurance for those worried about protecting their DNA data. 

• Expensive Apps and Membership Fees 

Expensive Apps and Membership Fees 

While Sequencing.com offers affordable DNA testing, the company also provides apps and memberships that could significantly increase your overall cost. Membership fees can quickly add up if you want to access multiple apps and reports. This additional cost factor should be considered before choosing Sequencing.com.
