Shared measurement data for research and lab teams
For university labs, research groups and small environmental labs. Give your team one shared project to work in - with roles, a full change history behind every value and QA/QC good practice - as a lighter, cheaper alternative to a full LIMS.
Free in early access · invite your whole team
One place the whole team can trust
One shared project for the team
Everyone works in the same project with roles that control who can view, edit or administer. A GPS station map and a sampling planner keep field and lab on the same page, whether it is two people or a whole research group.
Roles that fit how a team works
Four roles match real responsibilities. An administrator manages the project, its members and setup. A data-entry role adds and edits measurements and imports files. An analyst reviews and exports the data without changing raw values. An observer gets read-only access. So a student can enter results while a supervisor reviews and a co-author just looks - each with exactly the access they need.
Reproducible, defensible data
Every measurement carries a full change history - who entered or edited it and when. Sessions can be approved and locked, giving your group solid QA/QC practice and results you can stand behind in review.
The structure of a lab, lighter than a LIMS
Get the organisation a lab needs - validated entries, a shared indicator dictionary, calculated parameters - without the cost and complexity of a full LIMS. Import your existing spreadsheets so your years of team data come along.
From shared data to shared report
Analyse together, export to Excel or CSV for R and STATISTICA, and build a PDF report the whole group can use. Publish a project as a public dashboard when you want to show your work openly.
Open data your grants expect
When a grant asks for openly shared results and a data management plan, publish the group's project as a public dashboard on its own link - no login - and export the raw data in open Excel/CSV formats. Sharing your monitoring openly becomes a click for the whole team, not a separate task.
For research & lab teams - questions
How many people can work in a project? +
Invite your whole team. Roles (view, edit, administer) control what each person can do, and everyone sees the same up-to-date data.
Is LimnoLog a LIMS? +
No - it is a lighter, focused alternative for teams that need structured, shared, auditable measurement data without the cost and complexity of a full laboratory information management system.
Can we import our existing data? +
Yes. Import spreadsheets in XLSX, ODS, older XLS and CSV, in long, wide or very-wide layouts, so your existing data comes across in one go.
Where is our data stored? +
In the European Union, GDPR-compliant, with access enforced per row so people only see the projects they belong to. See the data security page for the details.
Can we plan the cost into a grant budget? +
Yes. LimnoLog is free in early access, and accounts opened now keep the core application free for good - so a team can adopt it today and budget any future connectors or dashboards into a multi-year project with a permanent founder discount, no surprise per-seat bills.
