http://biochemlabsolutions.com/ELN/ELN.html web site offers a nice solution for lab record. Stated as ELN, better to give try. It says Cross-platform use but give a try
I have just released last month a Mac app called Findings: http://findingsapp.com (it comes with a free trial that has all the features, with just a time limit) . But there are other options as well: I know a number of people use Evernote, which is a very versatile tool and lots of useful features. Also OneNote from Microsoft seems quite popular in science, and it's just been ported to the Mac in March of this year, just 3 months ago (they also have an iPad version).
I’m COO of Labii Inc. (https://labii.com) where we have developed a cloud-based Electronic Lab Notebook for academic and industry researchers to revolutionize experimental design, experimental execution, data collection and analysis, allowing enhanced interconnectivity and collaboration.
The ELN takes a special template-based approach, allowing you to quickly create templates and then edit variables within those templates during your experimentation, optimizing your time dealing with research recording and GLP practices.
You can easily view all variable changes throughout a project with Vertical History and Version Control lets you restore any previous iteration of your work, so you always have dynamic control of your experiment methodology.
Electronic signatures are created whenever any changes are made. You know who made what changes, where, and when. This also means EVERYTHING IS LOGGED.
Collaboration is made exceptionally easy and you can share documents, protocols, pictures and more with anyone connected to our platform, all while assigning permissions for each collaborator.
All of your information, results, protocols, and IP are secure (more secure than money in most financial institutions), Labii’s platform has an SSL rating of “A” (https://www.ssllabs.com/ssltest/analyze.html?d=labii.com&latest), allowing you peace of mind.
Easily keep track of multiple experiments, protocols, results and observations through our simple folder-based project manager.
Currently the ELN is free of charge, but soon, it won’t be!
Your "review" is shallow and serves nothing but to advertise scinote. You have conveniently ignored Evernote, Macjournal, EfficientPIM, etc. There are tons of them. Any of them will beat this joke along and across.
Full disclosure - I am the CEO of LabArchives, LLC. Our cloud-based (also available On Premises) is the leading Electronic Lab Notebook in the world with over 130,000 users. We have Enterprise accounts and dozens of leading research institutions throughout the world.
Please check our our web site and let us know if you have any questions.
You've probably already selected an ELN solution in the meanwhile, but I do quickly want to mention that labfolder can be used both for PC and Mac, and is available as cloud or server version.
For your reference, and that of anyone that is still searching for a suitable ELN, I'm attaching our feature list and buyer's guide.
I stumbled across your question from 6 years ago and I assume you must have found a solution by now! For anyone else that is still wondering about this, I can highly recommend Labstep.com as an integrated research data management platform. It's very intuitive and efficient to use, and also free for academics whoooop!
