What eLabNext is
eLabNext is SciSure’s electronic lab notebook and laboratory workflow platform for documenting experiments, collaborating with teams and connecting records to inventory and sample workflows. Experiment records support templates, linked samples and data files, image attachments, approvals, witness signing and audit trails. Inventory tools cover samples and storage, with custom views, compartment overviews and exports in PDF, Excel and CSV formats. Hosting options are Cloud, Private Cloud and On-Premises. On-Premises installations can run without an internet connection, although some add-ons will not work in that configuration. Cloud users receive 20 GB each for storing and linking files, with extra storage available in 100 GB increments; overall Cloud storage is described as unlimited in principle. Private Cloud includes 1 TB of standard storage, while On-Premises capacity depends on the organization’s hardware. A REST API, SDK and Marketplace add-ons can connect or extend lab software. Most add-ons are free, though some premium integrations require a subscription. SciSure offers a free trial, with no duration stated, and pricing is available on request.
