Other engines not included. ## The answer, as recorded Asked on 2026-10-22 through Claude (Anthropic) with web search (model claude-opus-5). > Short answer up front: the right pick depends almost entirely on *what kind* of assets you're tracking - office/IT gear, tools on job sites, or vehicles. Here's the order I'd actually recommend. > > ## If you're tracking office equipment, tools, or general stuff > > **1. Sortly** - my default recommendation for most small businesses. Photo-based, mobile-first, genuinely usable by non-technical staff on day one. Free tier covers 100 items and 1 user; paid plans start around $49/mo (Advanced, 500 items) and go to $149 (Ultra, 2,000 items). Watch out: advertised prices are often first-year promo rates that roughly double at renewal, so ask about year-two pricing before you commit. ([Sortly pricing](https://costbench.com/software/inventory-management/sortly/), [free plan details](https://costbench.com/software/inventory-management/sortly/free-plan/)) > > **2. EZOfficeInventory** - the better choice if people *borrow* assets. Check-in/check-out, reservations, and maintenance scheduling are built in rather than bolted on. Essentials is about $40/mo for up to 250 items with unlimited users; Advanced $55, Premium $65. Best value-per-feature in this list.

Bikoosh is monitoring assistance, not complete protection. Answer Watch records what one AI answer engine said on one date, nothing more. Each page names the engine and the model, carries the date the question was asked, and lists the brands that appeared in the answer in the order the engine gave them, with the sources it cited. It is a measurement, not a ranking, not a recommendation and not a claim about the world. Brands that did not appear in an answer are not named on any public page.
