The eCAT electronic lab notebook editions

eCAT comes in different editions to suit your circumstances

Install

With the install version, eCAT is installed on your server, behind your institutional firewall. You also have complete control over configuration, and your administrator can make file stores in your system available to eCAT so it's easy to get started with your files straight away.


Team Hosted

Team Hosted allows you to sign up and begin using eCAT immediately. We setup your entire system and host it on our servers. You have full control over the administrative functions of eCAT while not having to worry about any IT issues.


Personal

eCAT Personal is a free service hosted by Axiope that enables individuals to take advantage of eCAT's notebook and sample management capabilities. eCAT Personal is exactly the same as the Team Hosted version of eCAT, except that it does not support sharing of data between accounts. All data entered into an eCAT Personal account is private, and accessible only by the account holder.
