vs Clustermarket / Calira
LevelSixLabs vs Clustermarket / Calira
A focused equipment- and facility-booking platform (now Calira).
The problem teams run into
Clustermarket does booking well — but chemicals, SDS, COSHH and waste live somewhere else entirely. Teams end up running a booking tool alongside spreadsheets and a separate safety system, and nothing joins up.
