digital asset tracking software: importance and procedure
Asset tracking software gives you the flexibility to manage all of your company's assets at any time. In an ever-changing world, effective asset management is essential for sustainable growth. Especially in fast-growing companies, the number of technical devices, machines, tools and equipment is constantly increasing. As a result, a simple and effective solution for managing all these items is essential.
For modern, forward-looking companies, it makes sense to manage all equipment in a central software package. But not all software is created equal. For your inventory solution to be successful in the long term, it needs to be easy to use and a real labour saver. The security of your data should also be a top priority. With seventhings, all data is stored in the cloud. DSGVO-compliant and with the necessary security standards, of course. Read this blog post to find out why the cloud is the safest place for your data.
Seventhings asset tracking software allows you to manage your inventory efficiently and securely. We give each of your assets a unique digital identity by tagging it with the appropriate asset tag. You can then easily access all the information about your asset by scanning its QR code. The software links all existing inventory information and eliminates duplicate data maintenance. This can be data from financial accounting, but also additional information from your IT system, ticket system or Excel spreadsheets.
With seventhings asset management, you and your team have all the information about your assets at your fingertips.

Savings through intelligent asset tracking management
Conscious use of resources offers real added value for businesses. Asset management software offers a number of potential savings that can help you save time and money.
- Increased efficiency: Inventory software enables faster collection and management of inventory data compared to manual inventory. Employees can use barcodes, QR codes or RFID technology to scan inventory and transfer the information to the software in real time. This speeds up the process and minimises errors.
- Less paperwork: Asset management software can help reduce the amount of paperwork that would normally be generated during a manual inventory. The information is stored digitally and can be retrieved at any time. This saves time, space and money on paper and printing.
-
Avoid stock shortages: Asset management software allows companies to monitor inventory in real time and identify shortages early.
- Time and cost savings: Asset management software helps to reduce the time and costs normally associated with manual inventory. By collecting and processing data faster and avoiding stock-outs, companies can save time and money. With the seventhings inventory app, you can manage your assets more flexibly and save even more time on inventory.
IT hardware as a relevant factor for digital asset tracking
Most businesses need a lot of IT hardware. In fact, IT hardware is the fastest growing segment of the IT industry. It is expensive and often subject to supply constraints. At the same time, the IT workstation is often not seen for what it really is: a collection of a dozen or more components. In addition to the obvious peripherals of computer, monitor, keyboard and mouse, this can also include speakers, headsets and any number of other devices, some of which are of high value.
The seventhings asset management software enables the complete recording of a workstation. Thanks to flexible links, seventhings allows you to assign all relevant items to a workstation. The complete IT inventory pays off. It is clear which IT assets, hardware and software must be present at each workstation and in what condition they are. If a defect is reported, those responsible can see at a glance how long the item has been in use. This makes it easy to identify vulnerable components, as well as mishandling.
When inspections are due, the IT administrator needs no further information. He has a complete overview of the locations and owners of mobile devices. The digital asset tracking eliminates the time-consuming process of trawling through departments and updating hardware and software inventory lists ahead of upcoming inspections.
Kostenlose Inventarlösung nutzen
Managers are often reluctant to purchase inventory software that has to be paid for. The question quickly arises as to whether free software could solve the problem. Many well-known companies have realised that professional asset management software pays for itself.
Features such as secure cloud connectivity, well-trained support and ongoing development of inventory software cost money. If a tool is offered for free, it usually does not provide these essential services.
Reliability is essential for a functioning asset management system. Once the assets have been entered into the asset tracking software and the software is no longer being developed, this results in a huge amount of extra work. In the worst case scenario, it is not possible to export the stored data into common file formats and the inventory has to be entered from scratch. In the end, it always pays to rely on a professional and established solution such as seventhings.
Asset management software pays off
It is important for business leaders to know what assets are available and where they are located. Only with a permanent, up-to-the-minute overview can decisions be made that will lead to long-term, sustainable success. However, the collection of such valuable data as a complete inventory list only unfolds its full benefit if your employees can work with the data. The inventory software from seventhings ensures this.
