7 <strong>Features</strong> to <strong>Look</strong> <strong>When</strong> <strong>Implementing</strong> <strong>Asset</strong><br />

<strong>Management</strong> <strong>System</strong><br />

Have you ever thought of implementing <strong>Asset</strong> <strong>Management</strong> <strong>System</strong> in your<br />

organization?<br />

Let’s say, you have decided to implement an <strong>Asset</strong> <strong>Management</strong> <strong>System</strong> in your<br />

organization. Good decision! Now it’s important to know what features it must have<br />

to give the best possible outcome. Also, to increase the lifespan of the asset for your<br />

organization.<br />

However, for that, you need to ask some questions to yourself before implementing<br />

<strong>Asset</strong> management system such as what is your organization’s requirement? Will this<br />

system fulfill the needs? How effective this system would be? Who will use this<br />

system? Once you have the answers to these questions then you look for below-<br />

mentioned features.<br />

<strong>Asset</strong> Tracking<br />

The most basic yet most powerful feature is asset tracking. It lets you know the exact<br />

details on a real-time basis. Secondly, it assists you in scheduling the maintenance of<br />

the asset. Also plays a vital role in increasing the lifespan of an asset.


Cloud Hosting<br />

For a great <strong>Asset</strong> <strong>Management</strong> <strong>System</strong>, you require to look for the information about<br />

an asset from anywhere. <strong>When</strong> the software is cloud-based it is much easy to access<br />

from a browser around the world. From any device such as a mobile, tablet, etc. This<br />

feature really comes handy where you are traveling or away from the office<br />

Simple & Easy to Use<br />

As we already have too many problems in our life, we don’t want to add another one.<br />

Right? Therefore, try to implement the software that is very easy to use on a daily basis.<br />

Similarly, finding reports should not be a complex process to try to keep it simple. That’s<br />

why <strong>Asset</strong> <strong>Management</strong> <strong>System</strong> should be assistive, simple yet effective.<br />

User Restriction<br />

User restriction is very necessary to carry accurate data information.<br />

Here is an example. Suppose your organization maintains its assets via paper-based<br />

register and excel spreadsheet. Now multiple users can lay hands to maintain the<br />

data in one file. There may be some confusion arise over the asset who has updated<br />

information.


This whole scenario can cause chaos and mismatch of assets and their information.<br />

Very chaotic, right? With the correct system, you can make the user restricted to<br />

update the information in order to pass the accurate information. It is also crosschecked<br />

by other employees and admins.<br />

How Many Users<br />

<strong>When</strong> your organization is small-sized (10-15 employees) or medium-sized (50-100<br />

employees) or if your office has other branches as well or not. Then it’s important to<br />

know how many users are going to use the system. You would not purchase the<br />

software for 10 people usage when you have the medium size company or Vice and<br />

Versa. More users you add more money you have to pay for the system.<br />

User and Mobile-Friendly App<br />

As we have mentioned earlier as the system or app should be as simple as it can &<br />

easy to use. It should be mobile-friendly as well as user-friendly. A user should be able<br />

to mold the software or app a little bit, for e.g. An admin should able to create &<br />

customize field as per the requirement of the company. So that you maintain the<br />

asset information easily.


Scheduled <strong>Asset</strong> Audit<br />

Auditing is very important for verifying what assets your organization owns and where<br />

they’re located. Auditing part plays a crucial role while calculating the taxation. The<br />

auditing software let you schedule your own audit timeframe, receive status updates<br />

on the process.<br />

Check-In/Check-Out<br />

Check-in check-out is one of the most important features for the software and for your<br />

company. It can improve accuracy and reduce the time spent passing out assets and<br />

receiving assets. Through Search option facility you can find an asset by its name, tag,<br />

vendor name, employee name, etc.<br />

Check-in & check-out is very useful for industries or companies who have lots of<br />

assets such as School, Hotel, Library, etc. It allows multiple assets to multiple<br />

assignees for checking in & out in a single transaction.<br />

You can find all the above-mentioned features in <strong>Asset</strong> Infinity Software & Service.<br />

<strong>Asset</strong> Infinity enables you to create unlimited numbers of users on one platform with<br />

a user restriction feature. <strong>Asset</strong> Infinity is a versatile application in which you can<br />

operate administrative work at multiple sites from a single location. For instance, you<br />

can allow users from the manufacturing team to view all the information about the<br />

product and item in the app.
