What our customers say

“We get an extremely granular view of how every piece of equipment is being used down to the exact minute.”

Gísli Karl Gíslason
Project Manager, University of Iceland Science Park

“Without it, we probably would have bought more kit than we really needed. Calira gave us the visibility to see where we could share or reallocate instead.

Jasmine Freeman
Lab Manager, Moa Technology

“The most valuable aspect is the visibility among the users—knowing what’s available to book. From a LabOps perspective, it’s become our record management system for servicing, embedded into our SOPs.”

Vipul Bhakta
Director of Facilities Operations, AviadoBio

“Calira helped us improve our equipment usage and planning processes within our teams. It's also handy for me to have oversight of the utilization of our instruments.”

Solveig Pettersen
Head of Laboratory and EHS, Nykode Therapeutics

"Calira has improved the process of booking laboratory equipment in our R&D teams, created visibility across teams, improved insight into real time equipment status and allowed us to gather data for equipment usage with ease.

Nicole Williams
Lab Manager, Freenome

"I haven't needed to log in in the last two weeks to sort anything out. Scheduling runs quite a lot smoother now."

Frequently asked questions

How does Calira's lab equipment usage reporting work?

Every booking generates structured usage data against instruments, users, groups, and projects. Reports are built in the platform, filtered by the dimensions you need, and exported as CSV for use in finance, procurement, compliance, or executive updates.

01
What can I filter and aggregate reports by?

Reports can be aggregated by user, lab, equipment, equipment and user, group, or project. You can also filter by booking status, date range, or specific instruments; useful when you want a report of, for example, only completed bookings on a single instrument over a quarter.

02
Can I export usage data to Excel or BI tools?

Yes. All reports download as CSV, which you can open directly in Excel or pipe into BI tools like Power BI, Tableau, or Looker. Enterprise customers can also use the Calira API to connect live booking data to internal reporting dashboards.

03
What's the difference between booking data and LabTrack data in reports?

Booking data shows what users reserved; LabTrack data shows what actually happened at the instrument. In Reports, select 'Equipment bookings' to see reserved time, or 'LabTrack (no booking required)' to see walk-up sessions.

04
Which subscriptions include the Reports feature?

Reports are available on Premium and Enterprise subscriptions. Core (academic) includes the platform but not the full reporting suite.
