AssetTiger

Overview

AssetTiger is cloud software for keeping track of physical assets and their related maintenance, depreciation, contracts, and audits. It is a stronger fit for organizations that need mobile handoff records and operational reporting than for someone seeking a generous free inventory system. The paid tiers allow unlimited users, but the included asset count determines how far each plan goes.

Key features

Staff can scan barcodes and QR codes on iOS or Android, record asset check-ins and check-outs, and scan offline before syncing when connectivity returns. GPS location tracking adds another way to follow equipment. Together, these tools suit teams moving assets between people or sites; they are less useful if the organization will not keep custody records current.

Recurring maintenance schedules and advance email alerts help teams stay ahead of service deadlines. Depreciation supports straight-line, declining-balance, and sum-of-years-digits methods, giving finance and operations teams several standard calculation approaches. More than 80 report types can be exported to CSV or PDF, a useful range for teams that need to review or share asset data outside the platform.

The REST API supports connections to ERP systems including SAP, Oracle, NetSuite, and Dynamics, as well as ITSM platforms such as ServiceNow and Jira Service Management. API access comes with paid plans, alongside a sandbox environment and Swagger documentation. The pricing page also identifies 120+ permission settings, two-factor authentication, Google SSO, and an immutable activity log. Trial accounts receive standard email support; paid plans include priority support.

Pricing

The free Inventory plan covers just two inventory items, making it suitable for a small demonstration rather than a working inventory. A separate 30-day trial allows up to 250 assets and two users, with no credit card required. That is a more useful way to assess workflows, but its two-user ceiling is restrictive for broader team evaluation.

Basic costs $20/mo or $220/yr and includes 500 assets with unlimited users. It is the entry point for a team ready to manage a real inventory, although the asset cap may quickly constrain a growing organization. Core costs $40/mo or $440/yr for 2,500 assets; Advanced is $75/mo or $825/yr for 10,000; Pro is $140/mo or $1,540/yr for 50,000; and Enterprise is $275/mo or $3,025/yr for 250,000. All four include unlimited users, so the higher tiers increase asset capacity rather than seat allowance.

Inventory Paid is a separate add-on to any plan: $15/mo, $14/mo, or $165/yr, with unlimited inventory items. Its pricing terms make the distinction between monthly and annual billing worth checking before purchase. The listed starting price for the main paid plans is $20/mo.

Platforms

AssetTiger offers web access, iOS and Android apps, and an API. Mobile scanning works offline and syncs after reconnection, which can matter in facilities or field settings with intermittent service.

Who it's for

The maker positions AssetTiger for schools, IT teams, healthcare organizations, government agencies, nonprofits, construction, and manufacturing. Its mix of custody tracking, maintenance, depreciation, reports, and integrations is most relevant where teams need asset records to support both day-to-day operations and administrative work. The asset-based tiers make it less compelling for organizations that need only a small inventory or want to avoid a paid plan.

Pros and cons

• Pros: Barcode and QR scanning, check-in/check-out, and offline mobile capture support practical equipment handoffs.
• Pros: Maintenance scheduling, several depreciation methods, and 80+ exportable report types cover more than basic item tracking.
• Pros: Unlimited users across paid tiers avoid per-seat limits as teams grow.
• Cons: The free account's two-item limit is too small for most operational use.
• Cons: API access requires a paid plan, and the paid plan capacity is tied to asset-count tiers.

Verdict

AssetTiger is a sound choice for organizations that need mobile asset custody, maintenance planning, depreciation, and reporting in one system, especially when unlimited user access matters. Its main drawback is the strict free cap and the rising cost of higher asset limits; teams with a tiny inventory or a preference for open-source self-hosting should look elsewhere.
