## The answer, as recorded

Asked on 2026-10-01 through Claude (Anthropic) with web search (model claude-opus-5).

> Here's what I'd actually recommend, roughly in the order I'd suggest trying them:
> 
> **1. AssetTiger** - My default first suggestion for a small business, because it's free for up to 250 assets and that's a real free tier, not a crippled trial. You get barcode/QR scanning, check-in/check-out, depreciation, and basic reporting. Paid plans start around $20/mo. If you have fewer than 250 laptops/tools/pieces of equipment, start here and only move if you hit a wall.
> 
> **2. Sortly** - Best if your assets are easier to identify by sight than by serial number (tools, equipment, retail stock, props, parts bins). It's photo-first with QR/barcode scanning, the mobile app is genuinely good, and there's a free tier with paid plans from roughly $24-49/mo. This is the one I'd pick for a non-technical team that just needs to stop losing things.
> 
> **3. EZOfficeInventory** - Step up when you need checkout workflows, maintenance scheduling, reservations, and RFID support. Around $45/mo and up. Good fit for a small IT department or anyone lending equipment to staff repeatedly.
> 
> **4. Snipe-IT** - Worth naming if you're tracking IT assets specifically and have someone technical. It's open source and free t
