What to look for in a GAGEpack alternative
-
Tamper-evident audit trail
Every calibration, adjustment, and quarantine is hash-chained with a timestamp and user attribution, so altered records are detectable and you have a clear, defensible record for audits.
-
A mobile app built for the shop floor
Log calibrations at the instrument from iOS or Android, online or offline. QR-scan the asset, enter the reading, attach a photo, e-sign, done. No phones allowed on your floor? Technicians log the same work from any web browser.
-
One-click audit packs
Export audit-grade PDF and CSV documentation for any instrument or the whole facility, complete with an integrity verification page.
-
Never miss a due date
Next-due dates update automatically when a calibration is logged, and upcoming and overdue work is flagged so you can act before anything lapses.
-
Unlimited users, flat per-workspace pricing
Every technician, manager, and read-only auditor is included. You are never penalized with per-seat fees for adding the people who keep records complete.
-
Cloud-native, nothing to install
Run Axiospec from any browser with no server to maintain and no per-machine installs. Updates ship continuously, and your data is backed up automatically.
-
Bring your data with you
Import your gage registry and calibration history from CSV, Excel, or a legacy export with inline validation. If your export is unusually complex, our team will migrate it for free.
-
Records tailored to the standard you work to
Pick your standard and Axiospec asks for what that standard expects, on every calibration and certificate. An ISO/IEC 17025 workspace captures measurement uncertainty, the decision rule, and traceability to the reference standard. An ISO 9001 workspace stays light. Your procedures and your assessor decide compliance, but the record you keep matches what they ask for.
-
A calendar of what is due
The Due Calendar shows what is due, due soon, and overdue across your whole program in one view, so nothing slips because a reminder lived in a spreadsheet nobody checks.
-
MSA studies in the app
Run all four AIAG MSA studies right on the instrument: Gage R&R, Bias, Linearity, and Attribute agreement. Bias studies pre-fill from the calibration history you already have, readings paste straight from Excel, and there is no separate MSA spreadsheet to maintain.
-
Metrology Insights on every instrument
A reliability-based recommended interval, test uncertainty ratio, and conformance or false-accept risk, all computed for each instrument from its own calibration history. It is advisory, so the call stays yours.
-
Know who has each tool
The tool crib shows who has every tool, where it lives, and when it is due back. Check tools out with a due-back date, hand them between people, note the condition on return, and get a daily email when returns run overdue, with the full chain of custody on the record.
-
Roll compliance up across sites
Run more than one facility from one workspace, with compliance rolled up per site and a workspace-wide total, so a quality lead sees every plant at once.
Switching is painless
Send us your gage registry and calibration history and we load it for you, free on every plan and usually within a couple of business days including the free one. Keep your records, cancel anytime. Your data is always exportable, so there is no lock-in.

Common questions
How is Axiospec different from GAGEpack?
GAGEpack is PQ Systems' long-standing gage management product; confirm its current capabilities and editions with the vendor directly. Axiospec is cloud-native, so there is nothing to install and updates ship continuously with no separate maintenance fees. Every calibration is written to a tamper-evident audit trail, technicians log work from any phone or web browser, all four AIAG MSA studies run inside the app, every plan includes unlimited users, and pricing is published, including a free tier for up to 50 active assets.
Can I move my GAGEpack data into Axiospec?
Yes. Export your gage list and calibration history from GAGEpack to CSV or Excel, and the import wizard maps your columns and checks every row of a CSV or TSV before you commit, and validates Excel rows on the server as they import. History imports as real per-event records, not notes. If the export is complex, the free white-glove migration covers it: send the file and the team maps and loads it for your review, usually within a couple of business days.
Will I lose my calibration history when I switch from GAGEpack?
No. Your calibration history moves as real per-event records, not flattened into a notes field, alongside your asset registry and your certificate PDFs. Because every event carries its own date and interval, each asset's next due date recomputes automatically once the history loads, so nothing is stranded or guessed. Guided migration is free on every plan, including the free plan, so your records land structured and audit-ready.
Do I have to install anything, or is Axiospec cloud-based unlike GAGEpack?
Axiospec is cloud-native, so there is nothing to install and nothing to maintain. You sign in from any web browser or phone, updates ship continuously, and there are no separate maintenance fees. GAGEpack is Windows desktop software you download and install, and multi-user setups run on a SQL Server database you host. Editions can change, so confirm the current GAGEpack deployment options with the vendor directly.
Can I log calibrations from my phone with Axiospec?
You can log calibrations right from your phone. Axiospec runs in any mobile browser, so technicians work in the field with nothing to install. Pull up an asset by scanning its QR code, print labels for the shop floor, or use voice entry to record a reading hands-free. Every entry writes to a tamper-evident, hash-chained audit trail with e-signatures. For GAGEpack's current mobile options, check with the vendor directly.
What does Axiospec cost compared to GAGEpack?
Axiospec pricing is published and starts with a free plan: $0 for up to 50 active assets, the full platform, and unlimited users. Paid plans are $59, $129, and $229 per month, also with unlimited users, and no install or maintenance fees. GAGEpack does not publish standard pricing and is typically sold as licensed software you install, so ask the vendor directly for current GAGEpack pricing and any SQL Server or per-workstation requirements.
Before you move anything
What the migration actually involves
You produce whatever export your current system can give you. We map the columns, you review the mapping, then we load it. Every row is validated before anything saves. Each batch imports the rows that pass and lists the rest by file line and reason, so a bad row never blocks the rest of the file. A registry load lands as one batch an admin can undo. Certificate PDFs and scanned attachments come across too. Those are the part that most often needs a conversation, so raise them early. The work runs over email and does not tie up your calendar. It is free on every plan, including the free plan. Keep your existing system running until you have signed off on the loaded data.
How you would leave us
Export your data yourself, at any time, on any plan including the free one. That covers the asset register, the calibration history as per-event records, and the certificate files. There is no exit fee. You are reading this page because you are leaving a system you already bought, so ask us this question the same way you are asking it of them. Ask it before you migrate rather than after.
