What eLabNext is

eLabNext is SciSure’s electronic lab notebook for recording experiments, collaborating with teams, and linking records to inventory and sample workflows. Experiment records can use templates and connect samples and data files, with image attachments, approvals, witness signing, and audit trails. Its inventory tools manage samples and storage, provide custom views and compartment overviews, and export sample information as PDF, Excel, or CSV files. Hosting options are Cloud, Private Cloud, and On-Premises; the last can operate without internet access, although some add-ons will not work offline. Cloud users get 20 GB each for storing and linking files, with more available in 100 GB increments; overall Cloud storage is described as unlimited in principle. Private Cloud includes 1 TB standard storage, while On-Premises capacity depends on the organization’s hardware. A REST API, SDK, and Marketplace add-ons connect or extend lab software. Most add-ons are free, while some premium integrations require a subscription. Pricing is available on request, and a free trial is offered with no duration stated.
