Labfolder

Attributes
DescriptionLabforward GmbH is a German company based in Berlin. Labforward builds thoughtful productivity platforms for research teams and supports scientists in their quest to make breakthrough discoveries. Labfolder ELN enables documents and data to be stored in an effective way. As a result, it enables efficient processes and increases the overall quality of documentation. The collaborative nature of Labfolder enables lab technicians and lab managers to share and review data as a team or even across the organisation. Labregister, integrated with Labfolder, is an effective and comprehensive laboratory inventory management system that facilitates an overview of a laboratory's entire inventory. Researchers can list materials with their properties to ensure centralised organisation. The system allows scientists to track each inventory item through its specific life cycle and provides a direct link to lab notes. Laboperator, our innovative solution for device integrations and workflow automations, enables data transfer directly from the hardware into the ELN. The combination of our products lays the foundation for all future digital transformation needs by focusing on connectivity.
