16s sequence Identification

Question

[saifulislam99121]

Hello everyone. I know my question is a bit backdated but it is important for me to know.

Is there any other tools or website to identify the species of bacteria from 16s sanger sequencing other than NCBI blast?

It would be helpful if you share your thoughts.

Thank you.
