Quartzy vs. Calira

Quartzy is the world's leading laboratory supply management platform. Quartzy uniquely empowers research organizations with seamless integration of research workflows, business processes, and supply chains to help scientists, lab managers, and finance teams digitize the unique workflow of a laboratory - requesting lab supplies and reagents, approving purchases and tracking the procurement process, and keeping an accurate inventory so that scientific discovery happens faster.

Calira is an equipment booking and management platform for shared R&D lab equipment. It replaces the shared spreadsheets, Outlook calendars, paper signup sheets, and other improvised systems that most labs use to manage access to shared instruments. Labs use Calira to track instrument utilisation, improve asset visibility, reduce booking conflicts, prevent downtime, plan CapEx, and produce structured usage data. More than 1,800 labs in 53 countries run on Calira, including teams at Moderna, Takeda, Eli Lilly, Bayer, Novo Nordisk, Stanford, and MIT.
