MET/BASE Support Schedule

The MET/BASE and MET/TRACK products were first released in 1989, and introduced as the database and equipment tracking tools for the MET/CAL calibration automation software. Over time, as technology and customer requirements evolved, MET/BASE could no longer provide the features that today’s customers require, such as browser-based accessibility, work order management, email notifications, etc.

In 2012 Fluke Calibration introduced MET/TEAM as the calibration asset and work order management software fully integrated with MET/CAL. With continued enhancements, MET/TEAM version 3 is now one of the most feature rich calibration management software packages on the market, and MET/TEAM Express is available to MET/SUPPORT Gold customers free of charge.

Fluke Calibration is no longer developing new features on the MET/BASE platform, and has ended technical support. The MET/BASE support schedule is as follows.
