Key Factors Shaping Electronic Lab Notebook (ELN) Software Market
Growing Need for Efficient Data Management to Have Positive Impact
Professional laboratories deal with vast volumes of data that need to be efficiently recorded and maintained for various purposes. Over the years, the daily recording of laboratory activities has become increasingly essential. The traditional method of manually recording data often resulted in data loss, forgery, or other such security-related issues. An electronic lab notebook, on the other hand, is capable of storing data related to lab experiments or researches. It enables the user to access stored data for future reference and data sharing. Also, it helps in storing data in an orderly manner and ensures data safety. Thus, owing to the efficiency and ease of data maintenance offered by ELN, popularity among labs is increasing globally, which is further driving market growth.
Increased Application of ELN over Traditional Lab Notebooks
The need to reduce documentation time and promote easy search of data in the pharmaceutical industry are projected to be responsible for propelling the electronics lab notebook market growth, during the next few years. Moreover, ELN provides various benefits over conventional lab notebook. Electronic lab notebook offers different advantages such as ease in terms of searching for data, efficient record keeping, data management, portability, permanent data storage facility, lower possibility of a loss of sensitive and crucial data, and others.
Raising Awareness of Technological Advancements
In the recent past, many researchers and scientists have been using paper lab notebooks for maintaining records of activities and data generated in labs. However, digitalization is a trend that is rapidly gaining traction in labs for record-keeping. Growing awareness about time constraint and cost-efficiency offered by an electronic lab notebook system are resulting in a steady and gradual shift among scientists and researchers towards ELN solutions, which are also driving their demand in public and private labs globally.
Growth Opportunities in Asia Pacific Region
The electronic lab notebook (ELN) software providers are focusing on increasing their business opportunities across countries in the Asia Pacific region due to rising availability and awareness of laboratory solutions. Moreover, increasing number of clinical trials in emerging economies such as India, China, and Singapore are also expected to drive the growth of the APEJ electronic lab notebook market.

Academic and Pharmaceutical End Users Account for 50% Share
Academic institutions and pharmaceutical industry account for a collective revenue share of nearly half of the global market value. Concerns over reproducibility and dire need to streamline documentation have played a crucial role in boosting the demand for electronic lab notebook software. With the onset of cutting-edge ELNs that save significantly on time and effort, their adoption for data searching, copying, and archiving will witness a steep rise in the following years. Demand from academic institutions will particularly reflect 4.5X growth over the assessment period.
Developed Regional Markets Remain in Bandwagon
Owing to large scale advances in technology and solid market presence of global leaders, North America and Western Europe will remain at the forefront of electronic lab notebook software adoption. Further, progress in cloud technology and data analytics, coupled with the advent of bio-banks, would be offering lucrative opportunities to companies operating in these regions. However, owing to growing investments towards digitalization and laboratory infrastructure across nations such as China, South Korea, and India, a paradigm shift towards digital data management and documentation can be observed.
Market Stakeholders Focusing on User-friendly Features
As digital lab notebooks continue to gain acceptance as an ideal replacement for paper notebooks, stakeholders are focusing on improving the ‘user-friendly’ quotient of their products. In addition, user experience and ease-of-use along with pricing are some of the leading factors that influence the purchasing decisions of end-users.
High demand for non-specific
Adoption of specific to gain pace
Proprietary ELN most sought after
Demand for open Source ELN on rise
Academic expected to take the lead
Adoption by pharma industry to remain high
How Growth will Unfold
In the current scenario, the demand for open-source electronic lab notebooks is on the rise particularly in multiple nations across Western Europe. However, although open source license type is gaining traction, proprietary electronic lab notebooks will remain highly preferred owing to the dwindling storage prices. In addition, the adoption of proprietary electronic lab notebooks is on the rise owing to high demand from academic institutions that tend to make investments that rely on long-term returns.
