Replace Paper Lab Notebooks With a System That Actually Works
Your research deserves better than scattered files and illegible handwriting. The ELN Suite gives your lab structured, searchable, version-controlled documentation with a rich editor, reusable templates, and a complete audit trail that builds itself.

A Lab Notebook Editor That Works as Hard as You Do
Paper notebooks get lost. Spreadsheets multiply into incompatible versions. Word documents end up in ten different folders. The ELN Suite replaces all of that with a single, structured environment where every experiment is recorded, linked, and instantly retrievable.
Rich Text Editor Built for Science
Write the way you think. Bold, italic, headers, bullet lists, and inline comments are all available without leaving your experiment entry. No more fighting with formatting or copy-pasting between apps.
Embedded Data Tables
Insert structured data tables directly into your experiment notes. Add rows and columns as your data grows, sort results, and keep raw numbers right next to your observations.
Inline Charts & Visualizations
Generate charts from your embedded data tables without exporting anything. See trends and outliers immediately, and the chart updates automatically when you add new data points.
Attach Any File Type
Drag in instrument output, raw data, images, PDFs, or spreadsheets. Every attachment stays linked to the experiment entry it belongs to — nothing gets orphaned in a shared drive.
Experiment Templates That Enforce Consistency
When every researcher formats experiments differently, comparing results becomes guesswork and auditors get frustrated. Reusable templates give every experiment the same structure, the same required fields, and the same level of detail.
Pre-Built Templates for 20+ Disciplines
Start experiments with tested templates that include the right sections, fields, and structures for your discipline. Complete, consistent data from day one without reinventing the format.
Build and Share Your Own Templates
Turn any well-documented experiment into a reusable template. Share it across your lab so every team member follows the same protocol and records the same critical data points.
Required Fields Prevent Incomplete Records
Mark critical fields as mandatory so experiments cannot be saved until essential data is captured. No more discovering during an audit that a technician forgot to record a reagent lot number.
Protocol-Linked Templates
Link templates directly to your SOPs and protocols. When a protocol changes, the template updates too — your team always documents against the current version of the method.
Every Edit Preserved. Every Change Traceable.
In a paper notebook, crossed-out text is the only version history you get. In the ELN Suite, every save creates an automatic snapshot. Compare any two versions side by side, see who changed what and when, and restore previous versions with one click.
Every Edit Preserved Automatically
The moment you save, a new version is created. You never have to remember to click 'Save As' or create a backup. The complete history of every document is captured without extra effort.
Side-by-Side Version Comparison
Select any two versions and see exactly what changed, highlighted in context. Additions, deletions, and modifications are color-coded so reviewers assess changes in seconds.
Tamper-Proof Audit Trail
Every version records who made the change, when it happened, and what the document looked like before and after. This immutable record satisfies FDA 21 CFR Part 11 and ISO 17025.
One-Click Restore
Restore any previous version with a single click. The restored version becomes a new entry in the history, so you never lose the record of what happened.
From Template to Publication in Four Steps
The ELN Suite is not just a place to store notes. It is a structured workflow from experiment design through documentation, peer review, and publication-ready output.
Select a Template
Choose from your lab's template library or start from a discipline-specific template. Structure, required fields, and linked protocols are ready to go.
Document Your Experiment
Record observations, embed data tables, attach instrument files, and insert charts. The rich editor captures everything in one place as you work.
Review & Approve
Submit for peer review. Reviewers see the full version history, add inline comments, and approve or request changes — no email back-and-forth.
Search, Cite & Publish
Find any experiment instantly with full-text search. Export publication-ready documentation with complete data lineage and audit trails.
Find Any Experiment in Seconds, Not Hours
A notebook full of research is worthless if you cannot find what you need. The ELN Suite indexes every word in every experiment, protocol, and attached file. Type a keyword and get instant results with inline previews.
Frequently Asked Questions
Common questions about documentation, templates, and version control in the ELN Suite.
What file types can I attach to experiments?
All common file types including PDFs, Word documents, Excel spreadsheets, images (PNG, JPG, TIFF), CSV files, instrument-specific formats, and raw data files. There is no limit on the number of attachments per experiment.
Can I import existing documents from paper notebooks or other ELN systems?
Yes. Upload scanned paper notebooks as PDF attachments, and our team assists with bulk data migration from other electronic systems. Full-text search indexes imported content so it becomes immediately searchable.
How does the template library work?
The template library includes pre-built templates organized by discipline and experiment type. Customize them for your lab, or create your own. Administrators can designate official templates for the organization.
Is there a limit on how many experiments I can create?
No. Unlimited experiments, documents, and entries. Your subscription includes unlimited documentation capacity so your team never has to worry about running out of space.
Can I control who sees specific experiments?
Yes. Granular permissions at the project, folder, and experiment level. Control who can view, edit, comment, and approve any piece of content — essential for multi-team labs and regulated environments.
How does version comparison work?
Side-by-side view of any two versions with changes highlighted in color — additions in green, deletions in red. Every version includes the author, timestamp, and optional change notes. Satisfies 21 CFR Part 11 requirements.
