Use case: Asset management solution

Regain full visibility and control over your assets

Spreadsheets are not a sustainable solution.

It's easy to lose track of office equipment and furniture when tracking is done manually.

80%

of an office's time is spent reacting to maintenance issues that arise rather than preventing them

  • Manual data entry is time consuming and results in errors
  • With multiple versions of spreadsheets, records are not always up-to-date
  • The constant headache of searching for missing equipment and tools
  • Double booking due to inaccurate asset availability status
  • Assets managed with paper files across locations and siloed systems
