Free online booking system for microscopy?

[Richard Cole]

We use and really like PhPScheduleit, it is easy to setup and administer.  A couple nice features is the ability to select what instrumentation is available for each user, additionally you can use its logon feature to track actual usage.   It is completely free.

 

Hope that this is helpful

Hi Endy,

We adopted a nice online system: www.supersaas.com.
It's not free but has a very affordable price and can be paid by year.
It has many customizable features that can result of interest in a facility management.
For instance we created our own forms in order to collect information regarding the lasers that each user will use. This information is available to the previous user who can know whether to turn off a laser or not after his turn.
You can also take a look at our implementation for one of our confocal microscopes .( http://www.supersaas.com/schedule/leloir_imaging )
Good luck

Hi,

I'm currently looking around for a free online booking system for our microscopes in our facility.

Are there any of you that are currently using such a freeware which is easy to use and administrate?

Thanks, Endy
