Australia and New Zealand compete globally as a powerhouse in high-quality science, leveraging research for innovation, economic growth and societal advancement. Research facilities and biotech around the world are digitising their research, redefining laboratory operations and promoting better collaboration.
Together, Eppendorf and eLabNext offer an intuitive and easy-to-integrate Digital Lab Platform (DLP) that prioritises security while enabling seamless cross-referencing and collaboration across teams worldwide. Our electronic laboratory notebook (ELN) and laboratory inventory management system (LIMS) have been created by scientists for scientists, making lab operations and documentation effortless from start to finish.
Digitisation refers to the process of converting information into a digital format, making it electronically accessible and easier to manage. Digitalisation, however, goes beyond conversion. It involves integrating digital tools and technologies into processes and workflows, thereby reimagining entire systems for enhanced efficiency and collaboration.

Access to a range of free add-ons and integrations from eLabMarketplace
Maximised customisation with eLab API & SDK
Fully integrated sample tracking
ISO27001-certified & FDA 21 CFR 11, HIPAA, GDPR compliant
eLabInventory is a highly customisable laboratory inventory management software (LIMS), designed to fit your unique inventory, sample, and specimen tracking workflows. Lab digitalisation optimises sample and data management, ensures regulatory compliance and boosts overall research efficiency.
“When we started as a lab in August 2019, we were looking for a reliable and user-friendly online freezer inventory system. We surveyed a few and found them to either have complicated interfaces or be very costly. eLabInventory is a great blend of easy-to-use and cost-efficient. We use it daily to track and log our samples in our freezers, and would be lost without it. It is intuitive to search and find samples, or enter newly created samples into the system.”

eLabProtocols simplifies designing lab protocol templates and SOPs. It digitises experimental procedures with built-in calculations, reduces human errors, and enables version control and workflow for approval.
“eLabProtocols made it easy to stay on top of recording of samples, regardless of formats received. Being able to standardise our labelling and sample metadata collection meant that aftewards, it was simple. All we had to do was print out that label, scan it and store it in the correct freezer spot. eLabProtocols has a really great option where you only need to input the sample metadata for the original sample, which then passes automatically to the daughter samples when these are made.”

I found eLabInventory and it saved the day. I cannot say enough good things about the software and the support I received through the implementation process. It was so easy to set up and use, I did it with the bare minimum of work in less than a week. When I ran into questions or needed guidance, our designated Key Account Manager always answered his phone, texted, or emailed me back immediately. I quickly got the sense that the same level of support suffuses all levels and departments within the company. Who does that nowadays?
eLabNext… plays a fundamental role in facilitating the management of our Data Systems in compliance with ISO 17025 whilst also optimising our information, results and reporting workflows.
Read our case study with Drop Bio Health
eLabJournal has greatly facilitated our work and the close following up and easy back-and-forward of long-term experiments and the storage, in a very versatile way, of all the information that is required for the setup of highly reproducible protocols. It also has allowed us to link and maximise our resources because of the inventory function, so no more waste of time locating samples! It also permits very easy to link all type of data associated to an experiment/study either alone or in collaborations in a single hot spot. This has been working wonderful and it has been a great investment for a newly set up laboratory as is ours.
eLabNext’s responsiveness, often within six hours despite the time zone difference between Australia and the EU/US, demonstrated a commitment to support. The team facilitated online calls, guided us through implementation, testing, and rollout, and remained receptive to incorporating changes we deemed necessary.
