What is Calpendo Activity Recorder?

Calpendo Activity Recorder (CAR) is a Windows native program that runs on Windows XP through to Windows 11.

It keeps track of users and, if needed, the programs they are running and sends the information to Calpendo so that Calpendo can know who is using a particular instrument and for how long. Additionally, Calpendo can use the CAR data to compare the actual usage against the booked usage so that you can see who is overusing or underusing a machine.
