With the ELN's simple and flexible interface, users can compose thoughts, attach files, and take pictures directly from their devices. The ELN helps you stay organized by making all content searchable, including scanned images. [TRY FREE ](https://www.stackwave.com/stackwave-eln-free-trial-signup) ![StackWave ELN](https://www.stackwave.com/hubfs/ELN%20Enable.png "StackWave ELN") ## Store anything and find it quickly The StackWave ELN takes advantage of cutting-edge web technologies to provide a simple, flexible, easy-to-use, and powerful application for recording observations and capturing data throughout the lab. Compose your thoughts, attach any kind of file, insert images, take pictures, and more, directly from your computer or mobile device. StackWave's ELN maximizes the value of your organized content by making every document, spreadsheet, and note searchable; even images of scanned documents can be searched. External resources are made easily accessible simply by referencing them in your notes: the StackWave ELN can be configured to automatically identify proteins, compounds, samples, assay results, and other important data in both external and internal systems, and to intelligently incorporate the information in those systems into your notes. ![Multiplatform_sm](https://www.stackwave.com/hubfs/StackWave_Images/ELN/Multiplatform_sm.png "Multiplatform_sm") In addition to global search, group your notes into notebooks to keep them well-organized, then apply tags to important notes to provide an additional dimension of organization and retrieval. Move notes between notebooks as needed, or copy them to create a convenient starting point. In addition to copies of notes, the StackWave ELN allows users to create time-saving note templates from which to begin. Outline assay protocols, reports, and other documentation so that scientists can quickly fill in the blanks. The StackWave ELN is designed to comply with 21 CFR Part 11. Every operation is stored for subsequent review and auditing, and access control policies are enforced at every level of the application to ensure the utmost in security and compliance. Apply electronic signatures for witnessing and keep track of the signature chain for each note. Once signed, the StackWave ELN takes steps to ensure that a note cannot be further modified and to prove that its content hasn't changed since a signature was applied. As a web application, the StackWave ELN can be hosted on your company's premises or in a secure cloud environment, and our team of experienced software engineers can assist with integration into LIMS, SDMS, LIS, asset or resource management systems, and more. Initial deployment and setup takes less than a day for most scenarios. StackWave's many years of experience in systems integration makes us the perfect partner for teams looking to transition away from legacy ELN systems. ## Screenshots - ![An image that shows the Electronic Laboratory Notebook Notes Page](https://www.stackwave.com/hs-fs/hubfs/StackWave_Images/ELN/Screens/Notes.png?width=1418&height=796&name=Notes.png) Keep all of your unstructured data organized into notebooks - ![An image that shows the ELN software integration capabilities](https://www.stackwave.com/hs-fs/hubfs/StackWave_Images/ELN/Screens/External_Callouts.png?width=1418&height=796&name=External_Callouts.png) Enable deep integration with external databases and software systems - ![A depiction of searching in the StackWave ELN](https://www.stackwave.com/hs-fs/hubfs/StackWave_Images/ELN/Screens/GlobalSearch.png?width=1418&height=796&name=GlobalSearch.png) Search across notes and attachments using our powerful global search tool - ![A picture that shows how to use templates in the StackWave Electronic Laboratory Notebook](https://www.stackwave.com/hs-fs/hubfs/StackWave_Images/ELN/Screens/Templates.png?width=1418&height=796&name=Templates.png) Leverage templates to make note creation easier - ![A screenshot of a user attaching files to a note in the StackWave ELN](https://www.stackwave.com/hs-fs/hubfs/StackWave_Images/ELN/Screens/Attachments.png?width=1418&height=796&name=Attachments.png) Attach any kind of file to any note and view images, PDFs, and more without leaving your browser - ![Picture showing CFR Part 11 compliant auditing capabilities in the ELN](https://www.stackwave.com/hs-fs/hubfs/StackWave_Images/ELN/Screens/Audit_History.png?width=1418&height=796&name=Audit_History.png) View a record of the changes made to each note "StackWave gives us confidence in our leads by collecting all of the data about our potential therapeutics in one place and making that data actionable by allowing us to compare antibodies of interest." Director of R&D IT | Scholar Rock Chris Fuller "I worked with StackWave for ~4 years at my previous job to implement our LIMS. It was a great learning experience. We put in place an incredible system for our entire workflow, from plasmid registration to in-vivo study data registration." Senior Scientist II, Protein Sciences Nidhi Jain "StackWave’s Platform allowed us to collaborate on our in-vivo studies in a web browser at home... I would highly recommend StackWave for therapeutic discovery teams looking to improve collaboration between teams."
