Calibration Control review
A Windows-focused calibration system with strong records, traceability, and one-time licensing.
Reviewed by iTechGuides Editors · Editorial team · Updated Oct 2026
Calibration Control is desktop software for organizations managing gauges, test equipment, tools, and related maintenance activities. It combines recurring calibration frequencies and due-date tracking with event history, measurement records, certificates, attachments, standards traceability, notifications, barcode workflows, reporting, and asset movement controls. Its audience is Windows-based teams that need a structured record of calibration work and prefer a one-time license over a recurring SaaS subscription.
Pricing is organized around deployment and access needs. The Free Trial is fully functional for 30 days, supports unlimited seats, and installs on Windows. The Per Seat plan costs $768 USD one time for a single-user base license and includes 12 months of SMA. The Concurrent plan costs $1,037 USD one time for a concurrent-user base license and also includes 12 months of SMA. Terminal seats cost $50 USD one time, support barcode scanning use cases, and install with the full version. Read Only users are listed at $0 USD one time. This structure gives teams several ways to match licensing to how staff access the system.
The strongest fit is a Windows environment that values detailed calibration history, certificate control, audit-related records, and operational workflows such as barcode searches, transfers, status changes, and check-out. Microsoft Access and Microsoft SQL Server support, along with documented multi-user network and hosted SQL deployment options, provide database choices within that desktop model. The trade-off is platform scope: the software runs on Windows and has no mobile support. Teams requiring mobile calibration work or broader device coverage should consider an alternative; Windows teams seeking one-time licensing and a focused calibration record system are the clearer match.
Calibration Control pros and cons
- Where it wins
- Recurring schedules and due-date tracking for calibration and maintenance
- Certificates, audit trails, standards traceability, and historical records
- Barcode workflows, asset transfers, check-in/check-out, and reporting
- Where it doesn't
- Windows-only deployment limits platform flexibility
- No mobile support is available
- The 30-day trial is not a perpetual free plan
