Asset Panda

Pros

This asset management program is great since it is so simple to use. It's great that you may make new groups to accommodate the evolving demands of your company. To keep tabs on who has custody of these PCs, I utilize Asset Panda.

Cons

Asset Panda's drawbacks are minor and hardly worth considering. The dashboard component might use some work as it is not all-inclusive and the interface could use some cosmetic and functional updates.

Pros

I absolutely love it's ease of use and it's flexibility is on another level. How I wish I had started using a bit earlier. It makes adding data more easier into my assets. I also love it's customizations option. A software like no other.

Cons

I can't even think of any cons. It's so satisfying how Asset Panda works.

Pros

It's nice to be able to search for the stock items we have on hand and see who has checked out which tools.

Cons

It can take a long time to load and will freeze up if multiple people are using it at the same time, which is common at our company.

Pros

Asset Panda makes asset life cycle management quite easy with its excellent inteface.

Cons

Asset Panda can inprove its services in asset tracing side.

Pros

No set-up fee.
Our team's data always remains protected.
Multiple users can use it in my office.
All users find it easy to use.

Cons

It doesn't tell if any user had double posted
It's photo editor needs improvement.
Extremely high volume business may not be able to use it.

Pros

Simple interface, flexible, ease of use.

Cons

Not as many configuration possibilities for integrations

Reasons for Switching to Asset Panda

Pros

I love the user-friendly UI and ease of use for both entering and modifying assets into the system.

Cons

There's not much to not like as it makes for a seamless experience, especially the barcode scanning feature built into the app.

Pros

We previously used Asset Panda at another employer & knew it was so useful & so easy to set up, he had to bring it in here.

Cons

NOTHING - everything works as promised, easy to amend as needed, easy to update, easy to do everything!

Pros

Asset Panda is a useful tool for tracking and managing assets. I like that I can create custom fields and generate reports

Cons

Could have more customization options and better integrations with other tools.

Pros

It’s so easy to use and set up. We were able to train people on this quite easily

Cons

Purchasing it took a little but we were good once we did

Pros

We have found Asset Panda amazingly configurable and it hit all of the things we wanted in one SaaS. We needed something for inventory, asset mgmt, maintenance records and scheduling, and check in/out. Set up can be a little tough, so you use the implementation specialist as much as possible, they are the experts to set you up for success. To be honest, we didn't do this well. Having the system for 6 months and not using it well, we weren't sure it had a high ROI for us. As that happened, our Customer Success Specialist contacted us and was able to redeem the system for us, walking us through a few changes to completely revamp our process to make this system work amazingly well for us.

Cons

Not realizing that given its amazing customization ability required more attention from us in the implementation. There are some phrases/fields that aren't amazingly clear, so we had to write a little glossary for our team so we knew exactly what some things within the configuration meant.

Reasons for Switching to Asset Panda

Pros

The ability to shape the software to our needs. We were able to create a purchase order creation system using the features with in.

The ability to have our users sign for assets in app, was one of the top deciding factors for us choosing Asset Panda.

Cons

Seems they no longer offer over the phone customer support. Although tickets are addressed in a timely fashion, there is nothing like the one on one feeling of actually being able to explain the problem to someone verbally.

And the panda device agent does not work as we thought it should.

Reasons for Switching to Asset Panda

Pros

I like that there is a mobile app that allows you to update information remotely.

Cons

There is nothing I dislike about this app.

Pros

Being able to look up exactly what a co-worker has equipment wise is so easy just a couple of clicks and you have it.

Cons

I have issues with using a bar code scanner but I am 100% positive that it is a user error and not the program

Pros

I found Asset Panda to be incredibly user-friendly, making it easy for me to navigate and utilize its features. The integration with our existing business processes was seamless, saving us valuable time and effort.

Cons

While Asset Panda offers a comprehensive set of features, there are a few areas that could be improved. I believe additional customization options would enhance the software's flexibility, and a more intuitive reporting system would be beneficial.

Pros

cloud-based asset tracking software is the most flexible, user-friendly, and customizable system available and supports integrations with the world's best software

Cons

Bit complex stricture and hard to find data in large project

Pros

The ability to use a mobile app as the barcode scanner is extremely helpful that is most likely.

Cons

At times, using the product was a bit perplexing, particularly when searching for specific items. This might be because we weren't very familiar with the product.

Pros

We had control over our basic database schema from the beginning. Asset Panda looks and feels like a turn-key inventory solution to our users, but we designed and built how it works for our own custom and niche needs, without a developer and without expensive licensing and hardware. If you factor in those costs to achieve the same control and quality that Asset Panda achieved out of the box, it easily pays for itself.

Cons

Some of the features built for everyone are forced on everyone. Session timeouts that are way too fast have been a problem. If it times out while viewing a report, it will take you back into that report with no way out instead of just taking you to your default list view. More complex searching in the List View is lacking right now. You can get complex with reports, but you can't run actions on reports' results. The good news is they've been very receptive and responsive to feedback. Not once have they said "this is how it works and we don't plan on changing it." which is refreshing. Most of our feedback is submitted for future feature requests.

Pros

Being a small/mid-sized business we have struggled to keep track of fixed assets along with operational assets. We have been unable to accumulate data and with Asset Panda's help it provided an affordable platform to begin transitioning to a more modernized and sophisticated way of management. Having an unlimited number of users was one of the key factors along with an effective application that could be leveraged on mobile devices. We continue to identify more ways to leverage this platform and feel like we get a lot of value for what we pay. The support team and onboarding group was and is very impressive and always get prompt and timely responses to help resolve a situation or question.

Cons

There can be some short comings on the reporting and wish it had a little more sophistication in the fixed asset accounting aspect but that is something we have been able to work around. No major complaints except we sometimes run across some configuration limitations but overall the framework is flexible for any and all industries that you can usually manage it and work around to a resolution.

Pros

I like that you are able to design all aspects of the asset tracking functions for your company. I am able to customize the fields of data, types of data, structure of fields, who can access which features, and more to fit the needs of our organization

Cons

That I am not able to customize the reports easier. Also, that I do not have database access to simply write the queries myself. Also, I do not like that we are not notified of roadmaps for development and have limited input as to the features that are prioritized for our company. I understand that development has limited time and people, but would like to participate in a small customer focus group that meets quarterly to discuss the future of Asset Panda.

Pros

It is cloud based and can be accessed from any computer.

Cons

Adding our predefined forms is time consuming. And certain features/actions are not user friendly. I had to on a few occasions have a video call with a representative to walk me thorough a certain feature. Afterwards, I would have to review the video several times to complete what I needed.

Pros

This software is highly customizable, and has grown increasingly more robust over the last couple of years. It was easy for us to import all our old data and get started. We use it to track computer assets and inventory, and we have been able to tweak the setup to make it work better for us over the last 3 years as we learn more about what it can do, and what we need from the software.

Cons

There are some times in the screens were you can accidentally make changes to your whole inventory, rather than just a few items, and it's not really clear that would happen. They are working to improve that process, but that's been our biggest problem.

Pros

We used Asset Panda in my previous company that we had quite a bit of equipment and inventory. Before we migrated to Asset Panda it was hard to keep up where all of our equipment was and on what job we needed it for. We first tried the trial with Asset Panda and it went really smoothly and we liked what we saw. We then went ahead and set up the full version. The representative was really friendly and helpful on customizing what we needing to track all of our equipment. I like this software because it has a lot of bells and whistles with it and you can really customize everything on it. It is a pretty quick transition to learn everything and it has a simple design to it as well. It is convenient because it has a mobile version as well that we gave to all of our technicians. It can send alerts and they can check something in on their phone. The price for this was fairly reasonable as well. I would try out the trial to see if it fits with your needs then decide from there.

Cons

It is nice they have so much customization of and functions but it can be a little overwhelming at first and takes a while to customize it to the best of your needs.

Pros

Asset Panda is very user friendly. The GUI is intuitive and easy to navigate without any official training.

Cons

At this time i don't feel there are any constructive criticisms to offer. Great job.

Pros

We are a hire company that started using it to track asset movements, but now use it for fleet maintenance, work orders, staff time sheets, inventory, repairs tracking, plant road registrations all sorts of forms, reports and record keeping. A whole lot more than initially planned. We have been using this software for a year and now that we are starting to build up historical data throughout the program we are seeing more and more benefits.

Cons

We have had some issues with the GPS tracking side of things.s As a hire company one of our main uses we have is to have a map point of where our products are in many locations. There has been some workarounds to make it possible, but I think there could still be some improvements to be made in this area.

Pros

The most liked part was attachment of record history with asset. the asset transfer is managed easily.

Cons

nothing, asset panda is most loved application.

Pros

The best part about Asset Panda is its customization capabilities. The platform allows you to tailor workflows, fields, and asset data to fit your specific business needs, making it highly adaptable to various industries. I also loved the mobile app's functionality, especially the barcode scanning and asset check-in/check-out features, which make managing assets on the go incredibly easy and efficient. Its reporting tools are also top-notch, providing detailed insights into asset performance and lifecycle management.

Cons

The pricing model is based on the number of assets rather than users, which can get costly for businesses that need to track many assets. Additionally, the learning curve for advanced features like API integrations or custom workflows can be steep, requiring some technical know-how. Finally, offline access for the mobile app is limited, which can be a challenge in areas with poor connectivity.

Pros

The way I can store and manage my asset inventory in a systematic format with serialized and sequential numbering format.

Cons

the restrictions to not create certain type of workflows or hierarchy to see high level asset view and then break it down to each individual asset

Pros

Asset panda is excellent and keeping track of all your IT assets are making sure everything is where it should be and you know when stuff is Jake

Cons

The free limits the number of assets you can have, and then you have to go onto a paid plan, which can get quite expensive

Pros

almost always accurate with my counts and never short, honestly I like it

Cons

don't change yet until i can keep control of my spending

Pros

That all of our things are organized in one spot!

Cons

Having to type each individual item in but after that it's good to go!

Pros

Love the ability to customize fields and generate detailed reports, makes inventory management a breeze.

Cons

The interface can be a bit overwhelming at first and takes some time to get used to.

Pros

The mobile app is convenient for updating asset information on the go, and the customizable fields make it easy to tailor the software to our specific needs.

Cons

The user interface can be a bit overwhelming at first, and it took some time to get used to the navigation and layout of the software.

Pros

I love the customization options and the ability to access the software from anywhere. It has made asset management a breeze!

Cons

The mobile app could use some improvement in terms of functionality and speed. Occasionally, syncing issues arise.

Pros

Easily Manage our inventory, So much more efficient in product replacement and ordering. Customizable interface is great!

Cons

customer support is not as great as some other products.

Pros

The layout is super clean and easy to navigate which is crucial and makes onboarding easy. There are so many customizable options and customer servie is great and quick.

Cons

Limited functionality when offline and not in wifi, but thats all i can think of.

Pros

I love the barcode printing, labelling, and scanning. This allows for real-time physical asset tracking and inventory management. No more losing or guessing where our equipment is!

Cons

I didn't like the limitations regarding in-depth and detailed parent-child asset relationships. This was a necessity for us as we needed to "nest" equipment inside other equipment and be able to track all of that together and also separately.

Pros

Great assist management software. I love how easy and simple it is to use and carry out tasks.

Cons

Sessions time out way too fast, while viewing a report the page times out and takes you back to the start

Pros

I like how easy it is to deploy and use. I don't have any issues scanning or uploading my findings to be used in other systems. Accuracy is also key. I don't ever have to worry about mis scans which saves me a lot of time.

Cons

I don't have any complaints. This system is readily available and easy to use.

Pros

i found the following features as most impactful:
- asset tracking
-asset organisation
- asset location finding using GPS
- anywhere tracking based on cloud.
- assets marked using e-signature
Yes the product is quite easy to use for:
- cloud based application
- mobile based asset tracking
- uploading pictures, documents and quotes of an asset
- tracking and adding of non-depreciable assets
-
Yes i was successfully able to implement the integration of the app/software/SAAS with my existing business processes quite smoothly and easily as i could set it up with a little self-help, effort, and online training guides..

Cons

I found the following features that were either missing or could be improved:
- search function could be improved
- confusing security sign in
- configuration of images
- mobile bar-coded scanner

I found the following features or aspects of the product that are difficult to use:
- impossible to know double posting of assets
- difficult to setup users
- organisation of images gets difficult
- problematic setup of SSO
- time-out settings
No, the integration of the app/software/SAAS with my existing business processes not so much difficult as i could set it up with a little self-help, effort, and online training guides.

Pros

The investment we have made into AssetPanda's software pays for itself in many ways. (1) Staff are able to achieve/oversee more because tasks are more efficient with AssetPanda. What took the staff 20 minutes to do per request, now takes five. Audits that would have taken hours because the data was never originally captures in the first place, takes 15 minutes. This opens up time on their schedules for other projects. This is possible through action and assets records that are extremely customizable and the ability to set up automatic notifications to staff members (not just administrators). (2) Activity and asset tracking with user stamps, time stamps, and barcode tracking minimized loss of capital. AssetPanda enables us to close the cracks from our previous system where assets were occasionally lost.

Cons

Actions can have an "open" action and a "return" action, which links two actions together. It would be helpful to have an action chain of 3-4 actions. There are work arounds though.

The only other drawback we have found is that AssetPanda is not HIPAA compliant.
