eLabNext is the closest thing to us in shape: a notebook with sample management attached. The differences are price, depth of the inventory model, and what happens at the freezer.

Both of us think the notebook and the inventory belong in one product. We are a flat fee rather than per seat, we freeze an embedded protocol at the version you ran, and we post you the tags rather than leaving you to source them.
eLabNext has a larger add-on marketplace and more integrations with instruments and LIMS estates. If you need a specific integration it already has, that is a good reason to pick it.
eLabNext quotes per seat. SLIM is €160 a month (annual billing) for the whole laboratory, however many people are in it.
Competitor pricing and features are drawn from public sources and vendor pages, last checked September 2026. If we have something wrong, tell us and we will correct it.
