Switching to Axiospec from Spreadsheets or Legacy Calibration Software

What switching actually involves

The whole move is three steps. First, your instrument list and calibration history come in from CSV or Excel, or from a GAGEtrak or GAGEpack export. Second, you verify the imported registry against your current list, with due dates and statuses computed for every instrument. Third, you cut over: new calibrations get logged in Axiospec and the old system goes read-only.

For a typical registry of a few hundred instruments the import takes an afternoon, not a project plan. There is no installation, no server, and nothing for IT to maintain.

1. Export your current list (CSV or Excel from a spreadsheet, or the export from GAGEtrak or GAGEpack).
2. Import it. Columns are mapped for you, imperfect data comes in with warnings instead of failures, and history lands as real ledger entries.
3. Verify the registry and due dates against your old system, then start logging new calibrations in Axiospec.

Your history comes over as real records

Imported calibration history is not a flat attachment. Each historical calibration becomes a ledger entry on the instrument, so reverse traceability, due-date computation, and the audit trail work across your old data as well as your new entries.

That matters at audit time. An assessor who asks for the last three calibrations on a gauge gets them in one place, even if two of the three happened before you switched.

What your auditor sees

Every calibration in Axiospec is written to a tamper-evident, hash-chained ledger with timestamps, attribution, and bound e-signatures. As-found and as-left readings post an automatic out-of-tolerance check. When an instrument is found out of tolerance, you can trace a drifted reference standard to every calibration it stood behind to assess validity.

For the audit itself, you export a complete audit pack for one instrument or your whole registry from the Audit Center, and certificates carry the fields your chosen standard requires. Axiospec documents your calibration program and keeps it audit-ready. It does not certify or guarantee compliance. That determination stays with your auditor and your own processes, which is exactly how an assessor expects the tooling to behave.

What it costs, in one sentence

One flat price per workspace. Unlimited users on every plan, no per-seat charges, and no separate annual maintenance fee. Under 50 active assets the platform is free, permanently. Past that, plans start at $59 per month, and you can see every number on the pricing page. That is the whole quote, suitable for the one-line email to whoever approves spending.

How you leave, if you ever want to

Your data is yours. Every plan, including free, exports your full instrument registry and calibration history to CSV at any time, with no export gate and no retention hostage-taking. If Axiospec ever stops being the right fit, you take your records and go.

We put this in writing because it is the question a careful quality manager should ask about any cloud system, and the answer should never be vague.

Try it with your own registry

The live demo shows a working lab with no signup. When you are ready to evaluate seriously, create a free account: every new workspace runs on Professional for its first 45 days with no credit card, so you can import your full registry and run it side by side with your current system. Under 50 active assets, the free plan simply keeps going after that.
