The 8pi gamma-ray spectrometer has performed decay spectroscopy experiments at TRIUMF-ISAC between 2000 and 2013. A series of ancillary detector subsystems have been developed to enable or enhance particular aspects of decay spectroscopy. This facility allows a broad range of research in the fields of nuclear structure, nuclear astrophysics and fundamental symmetries. In this contribution, an overview is given of the detector systems and the research performed with the device during its operation at ISAC.
