<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#1F497D">A few people have already mentioned NEMO. Here at Princeton, we switched to NEMO about four months ago, and it has been a big success both with staff and labmembers. We’ve also been able to modify and customize
it to meet our needs. Our fork of the NIST’s code with those modifications is available here:

<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-GB">Dear all, at the UoS Nanofab we currently use a system called Phoenix to manage our users, tool bookings, and report generation. Unfortunately due to an acquisition of the vendor there is a possibility that support for
the software will be dropped soon, leaving us with the issue of whether to adopt development or replace the system. I know some other UK facilities are in a similar situation. Before Pheonix we had an in house solution but this was found to be inadequate in
several ways (mostly tied to monitoring and funding). <o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-GB"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-GB">I would be very interested to know if you use any other management software that could be recommended. At a minimum it must handle user details/training per tool, zoning, tool maintenance settings, user notifications,
calendar bookings, budget code tracking, and report generation E.g. tool uptime/utilisation or a breakdown of tool spend per budget code etc.
