AssetTiger

Vorteile

An excellent app with great functionality across data uploads, mobile app etc. Easy to get to grips with it, great for SMEs.

Nachteile

Some of the menus are a little non-intuitive, but it's not too bad.

If you had a more complex estate there are not enough levels to easily represent areas in hierarchical form, but for simple estates, it's great.

I'd like the options to group areas for audit rather than having to download one room at a time.

I'd also like to be able to multiselect assets and then update them all at once.

Vorteile

Very easy to use, they have definitely thought about the user experience. I found it very quick to set up my inventory, scan barcodes and replicate assets. The check-in-out feature works very well. The app works exceptionally well and is very well thought out.

Nachteile

There isn't enough user documentation, so I've had to figure things out for myself. I have had a few slow moments uploading images, but performance is generally very crisp.

Vorteile

Low price, ability to bulk upload, build custom reports, multiple fields available for data entry.

Nachteile

Fields aren't customizable, reports aren't intuitive, hard to find the history of a device, doesn't integrate with MS365 SSO. It's hard to update multiple systems. We use this for laptop tracking-it would be nice to have a ticketing (help desk) software integrated with the check in/check out process. Currently we use Spiceworks and Asset Tiger and the company that does out laptop repairs to track devices changing hands. Would be nice to have an all-in-one system or at least combine help desk and inventory. Spiceworks offers it, but the asset tracking is not very detailed.

Vorteile

The visibility of data on all items including a large number of equipment gear. Quick search engine and responsibility.

Nachteile

It takes some tome to configure initially. As having a lot of features, it can some time to adapt to system.

Vorteile

The only asset tools I could find to support the recording of assets for the Community Association assets. With some very simple customization, the replacement values and useful life information were recorded. This was exported to MS Excel to perform the Capital Fund Projection. The asset maintenance schedule and cost can be recorded to support annual budgeting. Plus it has a calendar for the maintenance and contract dates. All thsi provided a new level of visibllity to the committee

Nachteile

Minor. cannot load photos of assets from a mobile phone.
Minor, number fields except $ and , when loading and reject when saving.

Vorteile

Easy to manage the Assets. Easy to customize.

Nachteile

Don't have backup option. if we want to restore the data to any previous date is not available.
it should have the inventory management with more features.
it should have lease management system. Like we have 50 stores in different malls and buildings. lease contracts, rents , insurance etc.
And the Asset value management should have more features to give report to finance Department.

Vorteile

Organizing all the asset. Easy to use...

Nachteile

Can't find anything yet. All of it are excellent!

Vorteile

AssetTiger is easy to use and keeps track of all our business property easily.

Nachteile

I haven't found anything yet to dislike about the product.

Vorteile

Not only can you record your assets and lease the to customers with sections for the details but you can also record employee information.

Nachteile

No subdivisions to divide the assets is the only thing missing.

Vorteile

So simple to use! Complete and intuitive. Work great fort us.

Nachteile

The application interface should be made available in the other most commonly language speak in North America (French and Spanish)

Vorteile

Ease of use. It's a great asset tracker.

Nachteile

Search feature is very clumsy and not intuitive.

Vorteile

It is SO easy and customizable. Our old tracking program was custom built and the programmer passed away unexpectedly. I found Asset Tiger - tested it - customized it to be similar to what we had been using - uploaded 30,000 assets and had it up and running ALL within 2 weeks. AMAZING!

We do only use this for TRACKING - our accounting system does the depreciation and disposals.

Nachteile

There is only one feature that we desperately need. Asset Tiger attempted to add the feature as Event Date but it doesn't work as expected - we need it AUTO POPULATE with the last date the asset was touched (scanned, edited, moved etc)

I do realize there are a variety of reports to see the last event date - the problem is with 25,000 assets - looking them up one by one isn't an option. Plus - it doesn't really let me know what assets HAVEN'T had an event date (indicating loss or theft) and with 19 Million in assets - this part is really important to us.

I also realize there is an audit feature but it doesn't work for us because we have multiple offices and our assets are in constant motion between them.

Below are listed some of the ways that we use the info

* To identify items that are not located during our annual fixed asset count indicating loss or theft.

*To ensure we bill for equipment added after the customer contract starts.

*To verify movement of vehicles which has to be relayed to our insurance company

*To determine our equipment utilization

Currently I have to run several reports and then upload the data to give us a "Count Date" of the last time an asset was "touched" - I would consider Asset Tiger PERFECT if would do that automatically.

Vorteile

I like that it is immediately available to try and use. Other commercially available products take weeks or months to become available and then set up. With AssetTiger, it's available on your PC and on your mobile with just a couple of clicks. Experiment and explore for a couple of hours and to get familiar and begin using it with positive results right away.

Nachteile

The ability to transfer an asset from one user to another would be helpful. Our business has people and assets distributed all over the U.S. and the people often "hand-off" equipment between users. I wish AssetTiger had a feature that allowed two users to transfer an asset without going through the check-in / check-out procedure.

Vorteile

Cost is low since we purchase enough asset stickers yearly to cover the cost. Program and the GUI is easy to learn and use for all types of users. Good amount of reports that can be run.

Nachteile

Once a users email address is removed, it cannot be reused again.

Vorteile

Ease of use as well as easy to migrate to from existing system. This product definitely stands out in the value for money arena and provides all of the features required by us to track all of our assets as well as to manage the assets lifecycle from an information security perspective.

Nachteile

The fact that it does not have a software or information inventory function out of the box that could be utilised for tracking different types of information, it's sensitivity and flows between assets.

Vorteile

The Asset Tiger program is very easy to use.

Nachteile

We can not look up a user's device history. This would be helpful.

Vorteile

We use AsseTiger primarily to assign and track computer equipment. It's very easy to use in this respect. Check in/check out process is easy, and eliminates the cumbersome hardcopy forms that we previously used. Highly recommended for this function. Eventually, we'll have all the equipment in the database, including old equipment, although some fields will be blank, such as purchase price or vendor.

Nachteile

I honestly can't think of anything that I don't like about the product. It's very easy to set up and use. Unfortunately, as a one-man shop, I don't have the time to use all the functions available, so I can't really tell how well everything works.

Vorteile

it is very easy to use and you can customize it with your columns, and add other extras.

Nachteile

Many people who I work with don't excel in english, therefore they have to use google translate pages to use it. It would be great for the setup to have a spanish version.

Vorteile

Fully customizable. Easy to use. Easy to export data. Easy to import data. Photo storage. Good reporting.

Nachteile

Could have better auditing features and audit reporting.

Vorteile

I like the ability to categorize each asset and the feature to mass update assets. This helps with consistency.

Nachteile

Dispose asset feature still counts towards your asset count. It would be nice to dispose an asset so that we can easily track the assets that we recycle.

Vorteile

The price is great, especially when you are purchasing the tags from them. The software is fairly basic and simple to use. Meets our needs at the moment.

Nachteile

The search field desires a lot. It's fairly clunky to use. Integrations with other products, such as Google and JAMF, would be very nice!

In Betracht gezogene Alternativen

Warum AssetTiger gewählt wurde

Vorteile

I liked the cost effectiveness and ease of use the best.

Nachteile

The software would drain our phone batteries trying to upload assets. The process was time consuming for 1 asset.

Vorteile

We manage a lot of IT resources. The mobile app with built-in barcode scanner makes checking in/out equipment very easy.

Nachteile

Lack of API/Integrations with other products. Most asset management tools provide a method for integrating with Service Management or other helpdesk applications. Asset tiger would be a great tool with the ability to integrate with other applications. Without, it is a good asset management tool.

Vorteile

Asset Tiger provided me with a way to label, scan, and track inventory. It also has features like Grant/Year that allows school systems to pull inventory reports based on Grants.

Nachteile

I would like to see a feature that would alert you to end of life devices. The software was pretty easy to use and really helped me as there was no electronic tracking done when I came on board at current job.

Vorteile

Our organization is national, and we have users in multiple states. Each has their own account/custom views, and we can easily see/manage assets in all our locations. We love the ability to see a piece of equipment is available and request it from each other (creating a paper trail). It's even nice to see the total value of our assets/depreciation of our entire organization. While we are just a branch, we are suggesting this system to our parent organization for their use.

Nachteile

Inventory.
While it is still new, it is limited. As of this review, while adding or editing, you cannot put the "Location" or "Sub-Location" of the inventory item, then search for it. I tried custom fields, but they would not work or show up on the information. And it cannot be shared across our multiple sites. In addition, this feature has a bug when changing the InventoryID, it will not allow you to change it then go back without having to manually change each one.

Assets.
I don't like that if you need to make a bulk change, you cannot do this with a picture. You have to manually change it for each asset. I had over 100 to do by hand.
From their tech support, there is no way to search your list to see if you are missing assetIDs. We have thousands and just to see if we are missing assetID [sensitive content hidden] would be a nice feature. You have to export your list, then open excel and run formulas to search for missing assetID's.

Sharing Assets.
It would be a nice feature to integrate UPS, Fedex or USPS to where you can "Checkout" this device and either place the tracking number for it, or even purchase. Might be out of reach but just a thought.

Vorteile

The ease of quickly setting up the system and getting started is remarkable. The free version is a great advantage during the initial phase, allowing you to determine if the software meets your needs without commitment.

Nachteile

The maintenance feature could use some improvement, as it feels quite basic and lacks intuitiveness. The software could be offered also in different languages.

Vorteile

I can easily locate and track assets to determine their current status, check if any are overdue, and more. The system offers an excellent sorting feature and well-organized categorization fields, making asset management seamless.

Nachteile

I liked everything about Asset Tiger. I could run reports and make decisions based on them.

Vorteile

Paperless. The PDF report is nice. It's just simple

Nachteile

It seems the reader could use some work, but that may be my phone's fault.

Vorteile

We use asset tiger as a warehouse management system. It's not really optimised for the purpose but works good enough for us.

Nachteile

That it could easily become a full fledge WMS

Vorteile

Easy to check equipment or assets in and out. Easy to update an asset's information, or add information like photos or calibration certificates.

Nachteile

The search function is a bit cumbersome/isn't very "smart" (doesn't seem to be good at searching broadly through all the information fields).
Not helpful if employees don't actually choose to use it (nothing forcing an employee to actually check something in or out).

Vorteile

i like how it doesn't require a subscription servece

Nachteile

its slightly overwhelming but they do offer plenty of videos to clarify any issue you may have

Vorteile

Being able to track where all my assets are.

Nachteile

Users cannot be assigned to more than one company at a time. Therefore, my accountant and my IT guy cannot use the product because they already have an account with another product.

Vorteile

An easy and fast platform for managing fixed assets, suitable for individuals and companies of different sizes. It is available at an affordable price and provides a free trial and a free version. This program facilitates the issuance of reports and management of records.

Nachteile

Customer service response should be faster, sometimes some errors occur in the e-mail work. There is difficulty in integrating it with other programs.

Vorteile

The ability to check out assets to people and places is one of the major pros for this software. Keeping track of that and the value of the items makes it easier to see how much we are spending and makes it easy to compile a list of stolen/broken items in case of filing an insurance claim.

Nachteile

My biggest gripe lies with the mobile app. It doesn't feel very polished and having to sign in every time I have to use it makes it less efficient to use. I have opted for taking photos of assets along with their tags and then taking those photos and using the website to track assets as this is the best method of doing so at this time.

Vorteile

AssetTiger is relatively easy to use. You can add all of your assets and check them out to employees, and you can add different kinds of information relating to the asset such as brand, status, location, category, department, etc.. The mobile app is great as well and has an intuitive UI, and it lets you scan assets by the barcode(s) which makes logging assets much faster.

Nachteile

There aren't a lot of integrations with this software. It would be nice to have the option to connect it to Active Directory, Azure Active Directory, Microsoft Intune, Apple Business Manager, or other directory services / device management platforms. It may be too simple for your needs.

Vorteile

AssetTiger is very simple to set up and begin using right away. Keeping track of your assets is invaluable and AssetTiger makes it effortless. Features such as cloning assets in order to inventory large quantities of the same asset is fantastic. Asset pictures are also a useful tool. We use a wireless scanner with AssetTiger which makes it more powerful. I love the ability to email the person who is checking out an asset with details about the asset.

Nachteile

There are not any major cons for this software based on price to value. If anything, the ability to customize the fields more would take this software to another level, but most of what is needed is already part the default fields.

Vorteile

I love the hot buttons at the top. It is super easy to see what's under each category.

Nachteile

I wish the maintenance functions were a bit more involved. I need triggers based on hour meters and odometers as well as time frame.

Vorteile

The price is very reasonable. The system is easy to use and requires minimal time to train new IT staff once set-up. The system is easy to use, with barcode scanning capabilities, customizable table values so "odd" locations information can be tracked as well. Can add additional custom fields to each asset to track custom information where needed.

Nachteile

The software signs you out when you log into a other session. This is mostly painful when switching between the desktop and the mobile platform.

The most easy part was implementation whereby we can upload asset details via a excel template irrespective of number of assets you have. if you already using different software and needs migration, get all details to excel and upload with template provided. cost analysis and reports are to name a few very good features in this software.

Nachteile

The status attribute should have been more simple.

Vorteile

The interface is very friendly and very easy to use. You can easily make custom fields in the database to accommodate your needs if the default ones don't have everything you need.

Nachteile

If I were to nitpick, it would be nice to have even more customization options. However, it doesn't hinder our ability to track. This was still the best out of the box option for us.

Vorteile

Everything that we use it for it works perfect. With 10 different offices all in different states it makes it very easy to track, maintenance, and manage our assets. It has been a great tool for our entire company i could not imagine life with out it.

Nachteile

Only con i have is when creating maintenances it did away with my auto fill, my employee still is able to auto fill maintenance names but i cannot. We use the same naming convention for must maintenances so having auto fill makes it a lot easier and quicker to add maintenances.

Vorteile

Obviously the best thing about this software is that it's a full-featured asset management system with no subscription fees! We have been using a very limited database that integrates with Google Drive (Obvibase), which served its purpose for the first five years of business, but as our assets grow, we need something heftier. We're a small company, so we're not going to be able to fork over thousands of dollars to subscribe to some of Asset Tiger's competitors (and honestly, we don't need the majority of the bells and whistles). When I first read about Asset Tiger, I was skeptical, but I read more about it and decided to try it out. It's free for customers who buy tags, so I ordered some free samples and started to familiarize myself with the software. It was very intuitive and easy to use. I'm sure I haven't figured out all the finer details, and we would have some work to do to get everything rolled out to employees to start using, but it's fantastic so far. The graphical user interface is nice, and it's easy to set up. I exported from our old database, downloaded their import template, moved my exported file around to match, and imported our database in under 20 minutes. We're impressed. It's turning a task I used to hate into one I'm a little excited about.

Nachteile

There is only one thing that I tried to do that couldn't be done so far, and that was to run a report showing only assets. I did a simple workaround - I added a new field that I'll add the word "TRUE" in for these items as they're added. I also sorted the list by most expensive to least expensive, checked all the items, and batch-added this attribute. Then I ran a custom report for all items with that attribute designated as TRUE, and it worked.

Vorteile

I like that this program and app is easy to setup. I had the warehouse guy do it with little or no training. The stickers are easy to implement. Although, on plastic surfaces, I would rivet the stickers into the equipment. The training to field technicians is easy as well. Easy for them to use.

Nachteile

I would like the reporting features to be easier to use. The reports are great, but saving them isn't. An email report of assets that haven't been seen in a while would great too. As mentioned in the review, a history or feed of users would be nice. Then, I would know who isn't using the program and fix that behavior.

Vorteile

As an Operations Manager for a group of schools and colleges, the software was easy to deploy across the campuses and it was extremely easy to train our staff on its use. I really appreciate the ability to compartmentalize functions and permissions within the package as well as track the history of a particular asset.

Nachteile

There was no notification to users when the vehicle reservation form was updated and feedback/help was delayed. This resulted in us not being able to reserve vehicles for a while. The mobile app is not as user friendly as the web based platform, so I prefer using the latter.

Vorteile

AssetTiger allows us to easily track hardware that is handed out to employees through the check-in and check-out functionallity. With the AssetTags in form of a Barcode and the Scanner in the App we can use a Cellphone to easily assign an employee hardware, check the inventory for replacement equipment and always have a good overview of where equipment is currently situated.

Nachteile

The Software needed us to rethink inventory tracking a little, as each item had to be implemented as its own asset. A function to add a number of assets to a single item with multiple asset ids / tags would give a better overview of the inventory.

Vorteile

Very powerful and flexible. The ability to add your own records to the database and create user access to certain assets based off fields is great. The "check out" feature is great in keeping track of who has an asset, when it should be returned and even notifies them. We use this for the entire District and currently have nearly 21000 records. Reporting is easy to customize. The cost is very reasonable and, if you purchase asset tags through them you get credits towards Asset Tiger. With the number of tags we've purchased in the last couple of years, we have yet to pay for Asset Tiger. Customer service is very respective to suggestions and quick to respond.

Nachteile

Search doesn't seem to allow wild cards which can be an issue if you type something incorrectly. For example, if searching for a description of "Chromebook" and you have an asset spelled "ChromeLook", searching for Chrome* would show the desired results. Also doesn't seem to handle Boolean expressions so you can search for Account A AND Account B. You have to do two separate searches.

Vorteile

first and foremost it easy of use is amazing. Second there are lots of tutorial videos to help you with almost any issues related to the product. Third, it's a cloud base service so no downloads/installation needed.

It is also highly customizable which allow you to setup options and features tailored towards your needs.

Nachteile

The search function could be improved to accommodate a wide range of search criteria such as options on asset like PC mac address

Vorteile

We primarily use it as a student and faculty check-in/out at a student-lead help desk. It is easy to incorporate and teach students to use while still limiting access to certain equipment.

Nachteile

Reporting needs more freedom, ability to create custom reports with SQL style, or equivalent, options.

Vorteile

The software is super easy to set up and configure. You can use it farily easily right out of the gate.

Nachteile

This might be a feature that exists, but we have not figured out yet. We are not able to look for items by scanning their asset tags. We have to type the number in each time. We can only add assets by scanning the asset tags.
