Features Benefits
Wiki-based: Rich text, hyperlinking electronic lab notebook An easy-to-use editor for collaborative experimental planning, execution and analysis. Record evolving knowledge by linking follow-up experiments and conclusions.
Version HistoryFull edit history, so you can make changes without losing history.
Lab Item History Share information about laboratory samples and devices, including operations, interactions and observations (LIMS).
Flexible Sample Identifiers and TrackingUse any kind of sample identifier you want, from grease-pencil to tags to RFID. Use multiple identifiers for the same sample. Don't waste time arguing over labeling formats just work. Use sample tracking a little or a lot, it won't break.
Dedicated Web Pages for Each Lab Item, Interaction or Observation Record very detailed lab notes for each aspect of a procedure.  For example, maintenance records and performance parameters for devices, can be kept on separate pages, including links to external reference data.  You can even integrate other data sources with web interfaces. 
Data Entry in Forms or Data Tables
Use simple forms to enter single interactions and observations, or type data directly into a table in the page.  Either method saves to a database for sharing and re-use in other pages and analyses.
R Statistical Engine Analyze data right in your experiment page, from sums to dose-response fits to cluster analysis. Put results back into the table,or show plots in page. Formulae used are in full view on the page, not hidden.
Experiment Templates
Create templates for experiments with instructions and analysis methods pre-configured. Use for multiple experiments of the same type, to share analysis methods, to teach others how to do an experiment, or replicate validated analysis methods.
Documents with Work-Flow Attributes
Create analysis requests and reports. Assign attributes to these documents for searching and sorting. Use for flexible work-flow management of lab services and high-throughput processes.
Full Text Search
Find any page, lab device, interaction or observation with a single search.
File and Image Upload with Version Tracking
Uploaded files and images for a page. can be stored via a directory hierarchy, or by page number and version. The correct linked file and image will be displayed for the current page version.
Web 2.0 collaboration tools
Share comments, extensively link and annotate, get notifications of updates
Ajax web application Dynamic, interactive, web application without slow page reloads. No installation.
