Frequently asked questions

Answers to common questions about our Hosting Solutions

Can I upgrade from the Cloud to a dedicated installation? 

Yes, this is possible. In fact, many labs start with a Cloud installation. Once the system's benefits are proven, or if your organization decides to adopt eLabNext products company-wide, you can migrate existing data from the Cloud and establish a dedicated Private Cloud or On-Premises installation.

How often does eLabNext provide system updates?

We continuously enhance eLabNext products by developing new features. Using a continuous development strategy, we regularly launch updates in the Cloud. Private Cloud and On-Premises installations receive updates quarterly by default. Additionally, we can provide an acceptance environment where software updates are installed first for approval by the organization before deployment in their specific eLabNext installation.

Can we install the system ourselves? 

This is not required. eLabNext products are offered as subscription-based solutions that can also be installed on your organization’s servers. Our service includes system installation and periodic updates. If your organisation prefers a local installation, we can provide your IT department with the technical specifications for the necessary (virtual) server configurations. Once the servers are ready, we use a secure VPN connection and Octopus Autodeployer to install and maintain your system.

Is it possible to use the eLabNext platform without an internet connection?

Yes, you can run eLabNext products without an internet connection through an On-Premises installation. However, certain features, like third-party add-ons that need an internet connection, won't be available. For periodic system maintenance and software updates, the server will need internet access to fetch these updates.
