My university has supplied labs with labarchives (and has guaranteed if it ever migrates away from labarchives it will provide an equivalent solution and handle migration). It ticks all of those boxes. My only gripes are minor. Things like no embedding of vector graphics and no good embedded spreadsheet solution. They have some MS office browser based solution that handles version control. That is the official best spreadsheet solution right now.
I generated an html spreadsheet for run logs because I wanted an embedded setup. I ran into the limitation of 64K characters per entry. It’s handled by trimming html off the end then autofixing broken stuff. It works so well that it took me a while to figure out why the number of rows was decreasing as more rows were filled out.
It’s all very tidy once enough people are on board. Whole notebook (and subsections) can be exported to html or PDF. There is even a way to have some robotic file uploading a la directory monitoring.
