Six questions to ask before you choose

Who holds each asset, and did they sign for it?

A register without a named holder and a signature is a list of things nobody has to return.

Does it know when someone resigns?

Exits are where assets go missing. Ask whether your HR system (Zoho People, Keka, greytHR, Entra ID) can start the return.

Can finance use it?

GST on purchase bills, approvals and an entry in Tally or Zoho Books save retyping and give each asset a cost.

Will it work across offices and home desks?

Transfers in transit, an office per asset, and admins who see only their office.

What is the real price for your asset count?

Check setup fees, per-user modules and what the trial includes. Ask for the price in rupees with GST.

Can you leave easily?

Make sure you can export everything as a spreadsheet, and import your current Excel register on day one.
