Our overall experience with eLab Journal has been exceptional. We are glad we chose to partner with them because they were definitely the right choice! They have helped us immensely and we would not have achieved a successful project outcome without them.

Working with the team at eLab Journal to implement our LIMS and make enhancements as our laboratory has grown has been a wonderful experience. Everyone we have worked with is responsive and collaborative. The software itself has amazing functionality and provides the features we need to act as an efficient, high throughput testing laboratory.
Desventajas
When we implemented the software in 2020, some of the menu items and navigation seemed disjointed and not exceptionally intuitive. eLab Journal has evolved since then and we have seen improvements. The team is also open to our feedback as system users.
Respuesta de eLabNext
Thank you for your review of eLabJournal, Maura happy to hear that you've noticed our improvements, and we always appreciate the great feedback! Since October 2021, we have implemented several new UI updates, reorganized the navigation tools, and taken a more multi-disciplinary approach to the menu items so that chemists, biologists, research techs, and lab directors can easily access their unique day-to-day workflows within the system. Stay tuned for additional major updates by 2023!

This has been a great experience. At first had only planned to use for single aspect of research project and now pushing for us to incorporate into other areas.
Customer support has been excellent. Always quick to respond when have questions or requests, and so very willing to work with us to customize the system to our needs.
Puntos a favor
Although there was a learning process to using the system, it did not take more than a week for us to build the framework that needed for managing samples and recording experimental data. Have multiple users with different levels of comfort with technology and hearing more and more from group that so glad that set this up for this research project. Really appreciate that Microsoft Office integrated into system, not only for editing files but as sections within a entry. This has allowed users that do not have access to office to work with us with ease
Desventajas
Lacking some options that know are available on other electronic notebook freeware (To Do Lists, Task assignment, Calendar, Messaging center, view only of integrating Microsoft office components, comment tracking, tags for indexing entries).
One option that would love to have that seen in other electronic notebook software is the option to share study with outside user so can view (not edit) for defined period of time without using a licensed space. Would be happy if there was a limit on how many of these could exist at a time

Thank you for stopping by to review eLabJournal! We are happy to share that we are preparing to release a brand new add-on in Marketplace in the coming weeks for handling Task Assignments/To-Dos; additionally, we now support options for commenting/messaging on other users' experiments/reports, integration with Microsoft Office (Excel, Word, PPT), and labels/tags on projects for easier searching. We also have a few major projects on the horizon, including a full redesign of our Inventory module!
Moreover, we confirmed that our team is actively reviewing several of the features you've listed for future development consideration later this year.
If you have specific ideas about how you'd like any of these suggestions to be implemented, please consider emailing your Key Account Manager or Support@eLabNext.com. We always appreciate hearing feedback from our users, and we'll do our best to incorporate your comments into our next series of updates!

I'm thinking about moving my group back to good old paper reporting. I have already started doing this for short-time students that come to the group as trainees.
Puntos a favor
When we bought into it, it seemed to be the most advanced and user friendly product on the marked
Desventajas
Since we bought into it, the Journal is stuck in development or asks for additional money for features that should be integrated for molecular biology purposes.- still no possibility to use a stylus to annotate gel pictures or write entries. This would be to migrate from "paper book" to "electronic labbook" without loosing the ease of the "paper report".- gene bank files should be visible within the elab.
Respuesta de eLabNext
Thank you, Franziska, for your review! We appreciate your honest assessment of the platform, and we heard you loud and clear. We are actively working to develop additional features and improvements for the Journal and Protocol modules. We are happy to tell you many of the issues raised here are already core features within the platform. You may be interested in checking out our CloneAssist add-on, which allows users to integrate a molecular biology workbench into their ELN entries to visualize and construct DNA and plasmid molecules, with integrations with SnapGene, Genius, and GeneBank/FASTA files. We recommend scheduling a call with your Digital Lab Consultant/Account Manager to learn more about the add-on and see if it would fit your group well.
As providing exceptional customer service and support is one of our core tenants here at eLabNext, we're surprised to hear that your service experience has declined since transitioning to a dedicated installation. That doesn't sound like us. Would you be open to scheduling a call through the Support Desk with our Customer Success team to share more about your experience? We will thoroughly investigate any feedback and make the necessary improvements to restore your confidence in our support services. The Head of our company would like to meet with you personally to investigate!

eLab Protocols offers a great all-in-one solution to protocol development and refinement

So far my experience with eLab Protocols has been great and has offered an easy and streamlined means for communicating methologies that have worked well and for iterating on as these methods improve. I am excited to utilize the AI-based protocol generator function in this step of the process as well since it showed some promising outputs on some preliminary demos I performed. It still generates/hallucinates citations and can provide .
Puntos a favor
The template generation and easy iteration of commonly used protocols in the lab has and will continue to be invaluable for our operations across our two sites.
Desventajas
The slow adoption of the protocols function within the eLab protocol may be attributed to some of the clunky nature of generating a protocol from scratch in eLab, which can be challenging from a format perspective. However, generating the outline in a 3rd party platform such as Microsoft Word and then utilizing the import function has been great for generating rapid protocol skeletons that can then be populated/fine-tuned based on the user. Also the lack of a spell-check function makes 3rd party platforms more effecitive for generating error-free templates.

Overall, I'm very pleased with eLab. It has greatly streamlined the tracking of sample receipt and downstream processing for thousands of samples, allowing me to set up standard procedures that even novice undergraduate students can follow without difficulty. Likewise, the pricing was very competitive and the team at eLab has been very responsive and pleasant to work with.
Puntos a favor
This product has greatly facilitated the standardization of sample intake and inventory. Likewise, I really appreciate the ability to set up lab protocols (with version tracking) and standardized experiment templates. These features, in particular, make it easy to bring on new lab helpers in an undergraduate setting. There is no need to manage and track shared files or folders, and when a student leaves, their records and activities are preserved. The interface has generally been quite intuitive and easy to maneuver, and customer support is responsive and helpful if a user runs into problems.
Desventajas
There are still a few glitchy (largely aesthetic) areas. For example, the "Lineage" button appears to multiply as one clicks on or manipulates successive sample records. This can be resolved by refreshing the page, but it is not guaranteed that you will remain on the same sample record when you refresh. This doesn't seem to impact the integrity of sample records, but can be annoying when working with a lot of sample records.
There is not yet a function to create copies of plates of samples (e.g., whole-plate aliquots, series, or downstream product). One can work around this with batch importation, but I do look forward to this feature eventually being incorporated.

6 month of eLAB and don't want to miss it anymore
Revisado el 18/8/2021
Puntos a favor
We're working with several microorganisms and getting them organized into easily trackable collections are a big plus for us. In general we're using the customizable samples a lot, also for tracking individual fermentation batches. Together with the barcoding feature, tracking and identifying samples has become really straight forward.
Another great feature is the collaborative approach we can use, when we work on different projects. Everybody in the team can contribute with individual experiments and still everything is organized into the same project/study, which makes tracking the overall progress really easy.
Desventajas
One of the things that certainly need some improvement is the data-management system. You can store data within experiments and in a dedicated file-storage system, but these are not interconnected (at least not that I know). And to work with the file-storage is also not the most straight forward way to organize your files. A little more database management functionality here could go a long way.

Labfolder has a very bad reputation for being rather slow and most importantly unstable.Respuesta de eLabNext
We appreciate this feedback on the data management system, Bastian. Our team has created different options for File Management, i.e the eLabHybrid solution, however, we do realize that these days, the need is very different for large volume data creation, connection, and analysis. Because of this, we are actively considering options for adding new utilities to File Storage, as well as unified file management solutions. Your comment is heard loud and clear!

Digitalization of Manufacturing Processes at Viralgen using eLabJournal
Revisado el 2/5/2024
Puntos a favor
When using eLabJournal we take advantage of:
- We no longer use paper-based experiments.
- Instead of having different repositories for experiment and sample results, everything is stored in a single digital repository, avoiding the exchange of mails with these results.
- The Audit Trail of the samples is really good.
- You can trace the Samples that are used in an experiment really easily.
- Sample reception process using QR has simplified this process within Viralgen.
- The ingestion of data from third party software using API is straightforward.
- The implementation of eLAbJournal has allowed more communication between laboratories and departments.
- The integration with other third-party applications is possible using the API. In our case with SAP.
Desventajas
- When being used to paper-based experiments, the investment of time you need to digitalize your experiments in eLabJournal is really high.
- We miss some Project/Study/Experiment filtering tools.

In general I would recoment it. It's functional, user-friendly, and one single platform to keep easy access to labnotes/Inventories records.
Puntos a favor
It is kind of intuitive. It doesn't need much training to start. It's useful when sharing on real time the information between different sites, and that is deeply relevant when teams are located in different cities and need to have access to the information. Very friendly when adding collaborators and working together writing a protocol/experiment. Excelent for record keeping and great that deleted info/vials can be found if is requiered.
Desventajas
It requieres patience with the constant improvements and glitches. Now I am doing the refreshing as a part of the steps while using ELN. It is not too flexible and strongly recommend first to generate the protocol/experiment in other format and then just import it to this platform. That will save you time and headaches. Always have to save before you move between steps/sections, even in the same experiment. There are limitations in term of how to organize an experiment.
Respuesta de eLabNext
Xochitl, we appreciate your review. We're glad you've found the eLabNext interface intuitive and user-friendly, especially when collaborating with colleagues across different sites.

eLabInventory has been an overall very positive investment and experience for our organization. We have been able to consolidate and organize our stored inventory in multiple spaces, which was originally solely tracked by Excel files or staff memory. We have streamlined our processes for accessing existing samples and storing new ones, as well as our shipping procedure. We are able to quickly locate, identify, and manipulate sample entries using eLabInventory, obtaining the additional details of each sample by easily exporting the data from the software. We remain GLP compliant through the audit-trail features of the system and can quickly search archived entries for auditing or study coordination. The Customer Serivce provided by the US Eastern team has been phenomenal and they are extremely knowledgeable; they are very quick to respond and very helpful when issues arise. All customers also can submit requests for new features, some of which eventually make it into the software configuration in future updates.
Puntos a favor
eLabInventory allows users to enter, search, locate, relocate, and export data in a simple UI. The interface is clean and relatively easy to navigate, with only needed features visible. It is completely customizable as far as sample type, field options, label templating, and storage/equipment configuration. The add-ons for barcode automation and bulk sample manipulation are extremely useful and make the software more robust on a daily-use basis.
Desventajas
There were unique implementation challenges when first setting up the software, like not being able to transfer samples between groups with having Shared storage locations or specific automation steps not executing to manipulate samples in the most efficient ways. Once the capabilities and limitations of the software were learned, then these were relatively straight-forward items to work with, but not having a clear understanding of how the software operates leading up to implementation, along with an overwhelming Help document library, made fast implementation unsuccessful. Better/more training from the vendor, tutorial videos rather than text or screenshots, and a pre-made framework version to fit our organization's needs would have been very helpful.

eLab is a very user-friendly and intuitive platform. We name it a platform because various modules are offered such as sample, equipment, storage unit management, ELN, Protocols, etc. The platform and the modules are highly integrated and data integration is very satisfactory. Getting data in and out from eLab can be perfectly managed via the API. The open architecture and marketplace allows us to develop add-ons and use them directly in eLab! Due to the very low costs and plenty of useful functionalities compared to others on the market, eLab was a no-brainer for us to implement on a larger scale.

The only missing item I would add, which is rather a "nice-tohave" than a "myst-have" for us is Dashboarding/Visualization within eLab.
Respuesta de eLabNext
Thank you, Erim, for this great feedback! We recently won the "Ease of Use" and "Best Value" badges with Capterra, precisely for what you wrote here! With regards to support, all of our Lab Digitization Consultants or Key Account Managers come from scientific backgrounds and know what it's like to work in the lab, so they go in with the mindset of helping these labs to set a strong digital foundation in order to be able to grow into the system in a sustainable way. Developing a strong Digital Lab Strategy is imperative for successful business operations! We absolutely agree with you about Dashboarding and Visualization within eLab! Currently, our Timeline does this to some extent, but there is room for improvement! For now, most of our customers use our extensive API/SDK and Developer Hub to pull data out into their favourite visualization systems (i.e. Power BI), but it wouldn't hurt for us to have it within the system, and we are happy to notify you that it is in our roadmap, and will be available very soon!

If you are looking for a clean and simple eLN: eLabjournal is a great choice, especially for start-ups like us. The customer support is really good and it is clear from the beginning what eLN can and can't do. For us, our needs changed because of growth and we needed more extra features, but otherwise we would probably still use it. eLabjournal might not be the most intuitive eLN on the market and not the most fancy looking, but if you are just looking to replace those piles of paper on your desk or your labnotebook that is falling apart and has spills everywhere: eLabjournal is a good option.
Puntos a favor
eLabJournal is a simple and clean eLN, without any complicated features. It is like having a digital version of a labnotebook. Nothing more and nothing less. There are no distractions of features that you would never use, therefore it is relatively easy to start working with it.
Desventajas
It is a simple and clean eLN, but it doesn't work intuitive and typing text in either protocols and experiments was overly complicated. We had some issues with text not being saved. The barcode printing part never worked and then they discontinued a certain type of labelprinter. With a non-functioning barcode part, the inventory management part was also useless for us.

The eLabNext platform was recently awarded Capterra's badge for best "Ease of Use," so we'd be curious to learn more about your experience with the user interface and the pain points you've encountered – could be due to lack of training from our side so that we will take this note! Our Digital Lab Specialists would be happy to schedule a free consultation to ensure that your lab group is optimized for your workflows, and we welcome you to submit any suggestions for improving your experience to our Support Desk for consideration.
While we were unfortunately forced to end support for DYMO printers, eLabNext continues to be compatible with a wide range of Zebra and ZPL-compatible printers for our customers with labelling needs. Many of our customers have had positive experiences with these machines and reported significant improvements in the quality and configurability of their labels compared to DYMO.

Online Journal
Revisado el 20/10/2022
Puntos a favor
Switching from traditional paperback lab notebooks to online journaling is an overwhelming task in itself, but eLabJournal simplifies the process of writing, peer-reviewing, and signing off experiments/studies. Entries are accessible when needed to be shared with other laboratories or departments and with the eLabInventory integration, it's easier to keep track of and know the components of an experiment. An amazing feature is the ability to attach files and to link other experiments within an entry, this eases the need to manage local folders for various users since they are downloadable anytime (and anywhere). Their superb customer service needs praise on its own. They have knowledgeable people who are quick to help and go beyond in explaining things and even accommodate the needs of our lab, both in research and operations.
Desventajas
An entry can only be signed-off by a single person which makes it tricky for experiments or studies that needs both internal and quality reviews. eLabInventory is glitchy when there's a lot of back-to-back updates or additions made in the system.
Respuesta de eLabNext
Thank you for your review, Hazel! We are thrilled to hear that our digital lab platform has made your transition from the traditional, paper notebook so smooth and effortless. Our file attachment and linking features are designed to make data management more convenient for users, and we're delighted that you find it beneficial.
We appreciate your kind words about our customer service! Our team is dedicated to providing exceptional customer service while having a deep understanding of our software. It is wonderful to hear that our team has gone above and beyond to accommodate your needs. Regarding the single-person witness signature, our development is actively working on an Experiment Workflow that allows for a multiuser witness signature workflow. We have already released a feature for Protocol signing as well, which adds another layer of compliance!

This software caters to the small biotech co's by providing a single solution ELN that integrates data and inventory management. As such, the pricing is in an very effective position to enable those same small biotech companies to acquire and use their software efficiently. Great customer support and service, this offers an appreciable and competitive value.
This software is very good and taking in data, especially as a PDFs. Probably among one of the best ELNs out there. Unfortunately it's not a 'do-everything' solution, and does have some quirks. It would also better help these smaller co's that use it through implementing a less expensive 'module' add-in service that could pull from vendors like Fisher/VWR. This would allow for easier inventory management, and wouldn't require expensive custom solutions smaller companies wouldn't be able to afford anyway.
Puntos a favor
The ELN is easy to start using from ground zero. Many features are intuitive, and easy to navigate. Organization is implemented nicely, and searchable.
Desventajas
Frequent users will start to see issues with flexibility in correcting erroneous details of entries (not yet finalized), or setting up high-functioning templates for repeated experiments. More advanced features to integrate into ordering/inventory management are not modular add-ons, and treated as more expensive custom solutions.

Keeping track of your samples is made so easy
Revisado el 21/8/2023
Puntos a favor
Once a sample is generated, the sample history and what experiments it has been used in can be read in the samples sheet. So you not only know what happened to your samples (how many freeze thaws) but also who used the sample. Offspring of your sample can easily be tracked. This is vital sample management.
Desventajas
We could not answer some of our questions using the question mark but when we reached out to eLab we got prompt replies. In the beginning eLab was a bit difficult to learn and a proper training by eLab is advisable to make sure you are using eLab at its full potential.

2-3 Things that NEED to be implemented into elab
Revisado el 3/4/2023
Puntos a favor
I like that you can edit samples easily, and that you have a lot of possibilities with the configuration-map
Desventajas
you need to implement 3 functions:1. implement "personalised-view" of your samples everywhere! at the moment, we only have personalised view on the "sample-list". We truly need to have a personalised view in "Advanced-Search-Results", as well as in each specific Location.2. Possibilities to change Date-format. = we sort our Dates with this format: DD/MM/YYYY -> elab should register this and when we try sorting by date, it should start with sorting by YYYY. At the moment, it is only Sorting by DD, which is absolutely not usable for us.3. Allow Control-C/Selection of Search-Results in Sample-List (or/and advanced-Search, but only when number 1 has been adapted too) = this would allow us to rapidly export our search-results from sample-list to excel etc.

Hi Mitchell, thank you for your review!
We are happy to share that we recently received the 'Ease of Use' Capterra badge. It is fantastic to hear that you find our platform to be user-friendly. Regarding the specific functions you mentioned, the custom views in Advanced Search have already been submitted to our development team, and we would be happy to add you to our list of requestors. We will be sure to keep you updated on the progress of this feature.
As for export purposes, we have recently introduced a new add-on, the Sample Export Column Selector, that allows for easy column selection. Furthermore, we're pleased to inform you that the sorting by year and Control-C functions are already available. We would be happy to demonstrate these new add-ons and features. Please get in touch with our Support Desk to schedule a call with one of our dedicated Customer Success Specialists.

This has made our lives in our laboratory so much easier. We are a clinical lab so we collect samples and then store them until a project is nearing completion before we can analyze them. This means we need to have be very organized in how we keep track of where specific aliquots of samples are stored so we can find them more easily later. I wish I could go back in time and have the lab use this decades ago, because until now, our samples were tracked by excel sheets and paper binders. eLabInventory saves us so much time because we don't have to sift through individual Excel sheets to find our samples. Plus, it is so much more secure than using excel sheets because we could easily lose data. We've already started using the automated barcodes to organize everything and reduce errors.

This is the best!
Revisado el 24/8/2022
Puntos a favor
ELab is the most straightforward system we found. We paid for a different system, but despite trying to understand how to use it, we remained deeply frustrated. We checked out several systems; it was an easy decision to change to eLab one we tried it.
The best part of eLab was the help from the support person, [SENSITIVE CONTENT]. It would be impossible to even begin to explain how much patience he had. He spent time between our calls considering our work and designing a template that would work for us. I had been unable to fully explain what I had in mind, but [SENSITIVE CONTENT] designed something that was exactly what I wanted (but couldn't explain).
Whether you are involved in research with multiple layers of overlapping data or are tracking daily changes in a single study, this software can get you what you need...on the simpler end of that, it can be difficult to find a system that will work for you.
The system, the support staff, and the price are all wonderful.
Desventajas
There is absolutely no downside to this system. There is nothing to not like.

My overall experience with eLABJournal is very positive. It definitely improves my data management and it has a lot of benefits when you collaborate with colleagues and students. I definitely recommend this to any wet-lab scientist!
Puntos a favor
Having worked with eLabjournal for nearly 3 year, I definitely learned to appreciate its overall function for data management. You collect everything (e.g. data, protocol, notes, analysis, conclusions) in one software and you have everything accessible with a few clicks. Furthermore, I enjoy the Inventory a lot, as I can easily find back all my samples quickly.
Desventajas
As with any new system, in the beginning it takes some time to get used to the navigation in eLabjournal. Logically also the structure is different than in a "diary-like" hard-copy lab book.
Respuesta de eLabNext
Katharina, thank you for reviewing eLabJournal - we appreciate your commitment to the platform and hope to continue being your one-stop shop for digital lab tools in the coming years! The structure of eLabJournal was designed as a 3-tiered project management-style workflow to encourage standardization and organization within your lab records, from Project to Study to Experiment/Report. We're glad that you have gotten used to it, but we'd love to know how we can make the learning curve shorter!
If you have additional suggestions for how to improve the platform, feel free to reach out to your Key Account Manager to share your thoughts! As always, the HELP section on our website is there to assist you as well.

Using the eLabNext software has increased productivity in our lab. This software has given us an efficient way to keep track of our inventory, experiments, and even equipment! As our team grows, we need an effective way to cohesively collect and share all our data and information--eLabNext does just that and much more!
Puntos a favor
The eLabNext software has allowed us to stay organized in the lab. For example, the Inventory tab has allowed us to keep track of our inventory in a more efficient way. In the same matter, the Journal tab has been helpful in putting together our experiment results, studies, and projects. We find this tab especially useful since we can pull different parts from eLabJournal (I.e., add inventory, protocols, etc.) to make a completed report.
