Agreed, asset management isn't only about knowing and tracking what the business possesses. A good system 1. Separates, but inter-connect the Asssets and CI. An asset will never change during its lifecycle. A CI is the actual configuration(s) of an asset. It could be a simple laptop (asset) with a standard OS (CI, one-to-one relationship), or it could be a server (asset) with multiple virtual machines (CI, one-to-many relationship) 2. Will handle the entire lifecycle of the equipment. 3. Will be an integral part of the purchasing, receiving and decommission process. 4. Will allow you to predict and plan the replacement of old assets with a high level of confidence. The product presented by OP only touches a sliver of what asset management is. For some it might be just enough, but most don't realize how complex it can become. |

I'm aware of Snipe-IT, but could you recommend any other open-source solutions?
I have a hunch that the scope and requirements of such software are often tailored exclusively to enterprises, which only comes with a price tag.
