Free Asset Management Software
UNIO24 makes asset management simple — IT equipment, vehicles, furniture, all in one register. Maintenance, audits, handovers, and moves run on the same platform, so your assets stay in order for good.

Built to replace your spreadsheet
You started in Excel. Then someone emailed a copy, edited it, and now nobody knows which version is live. Half a Tuesday goes into hunting for the projector.
UNIO24 fixes that. Every feature is on, seats are unlimited, and it's free to start — no expiring trial counting down in the background.
For small businesses, schools, non-profits, IT teams, and maintenance or construction crews. Track laptops, tools, vehicles, furniture, lab gear, anything physical.
I built UNIO24 because I got tired of chasing equipment nobody could place — and forgetting who I'd handed things to. Getting organized early is on me — I know how much it matters.

Everything you need to track assets
One asset register
A cloud catalogue of every laptop, tool, and device you own.
Check-in / check-out
Know where each asset is and who has it, in real time.
Supplies and stock
Track consumables, set thresholds, skip the "we ran out" mornings.
Web and native mobile app
Work from your computer or laptop, or pick up the native iOS and Android app — whatever's in front of you. Scan QR and NFC tags, check items in and out, and keep working offline. Every change syncs in real time, so web and phone always show the exact same data.
The free plan is the whole platform
Most "free" tools hand you a stripped-down tracker and paywall everything useful. UNIO24 switches the full operations platform on for free — tickets, work orders, audits, licenses, and analytics, all included. Here's what that looks like day to day.
Log every request against its asset
Every ticket links to the asset it's about, and every fix lands in that asset's history. Escalations stay visible end-to-end — nothing lost in email or chat. Turn a ticket into a work order in one click.
Turn requests into work that closes
Convert any ticket into a scheduled work order in one click. Each order carries subtasks, parts pulled from inventory, time logged, and a photo and signature on completion. Mobile-first and SLA-aware — nothing left open.
Run a full inventory audit from your phone
Scope the session, scan with mobile QR, and UNIO24 auto-classifies every asset as verified, misplaced, surplus, or missing. Multi-participant scanning, a permanent audit trail on each asset, and Excel export.
Never miss a software renewal again
One register for every license and seat, tracked to the employee or device using it. Renewal alerts before expiry, reclaimed seats you stopped paying for, and a compliance report ready the moment an auditor asks.
See what your assets are actually doing
Pre-built dashboards across utilization, cost, lifecycle, and loss patterns. Drill from any chart straight into the asset record — the numbers surface the decisions worth making before they hit the budget.

Why UNIO24 Free
UNIO24 Free runs on the full product — not a feature-stripped demo.

We're glad to back small teams getting started. The free plan is how we support the small businesses, schools, non-profits, and crews that need to get organized without an enterprise budget — no countdown, no catch. Grow into a paid plan when your fleet grows; until then, it's on us.
Upgrade only when you grow
The free plan runs forever — no expiring trial counting down in the background. When you're ready for more, upgrading is one click and your data, users, and roles stay exactly where they are.

Free IT asset management, too
Running IT? UNIO24 doubles as free IT asset management software — track laptops, monitors, and phones, assign each device to an employee, and keep a full check-in/out history. Software licenses and renewals live in the same place, so audits stop being a scramble.
Weighing the open-source route? Self-hosted ITAM tools are free too, but you host, patch, and back them up yourself. UNIO24 gives you the free-software price with none of the server upkeep — hosted, and live in two minutes.

Frequently Asked Questions
Common questions about UNIO24
Is there a free asset management tool?
Yes. UNIO24 is free asset management software — QR codes, mobile apps, check-in/out, and maintenance included. No credit card and no trial that expires. Hosted, self-hosted open-source options like Snipe-IT and GLPI are free too, but you run the server yourself.
Is it really free? Where's the catch?
There isn't one. No card, no trial expiry, same features as the paid plans. We give it away hoping that when you grow, you stay with us.
What happens when I need more?
Same UNIO24, just with a bill now. By then you already know the tool earns its keep — upgrading is one click and your data stays put.
Is there a mobile app?
iOS and Android. QR scanning, check-in/out, location updates. Works offline — even in that one corner of the basement where signal goes to die.
What's the best free way to track inventory and equipment?
A spreadsheet works until two people edit it or you need to know who has what. Free asset management software like UNIO24 fixes that: scan a QR code to check items in and out, set low-stock alerts, and see everything in one live list — free to start, no card.
Is UNIO24 open source?
No — UNIO24 is a hosted product with a free-forever plan, not an open-source project. You get the free-software price without hosting, patching, or backing up a server yourself. If you want to compare, Snipe-IT and GLPI are the popular open-source routes; UNIO24 trades self-hosting for zero setup and support on every plan.
What's on the free plan?
Everything that matters day to day — QR codes, mobile apps, check-in/out, tickets, work orders, audits, licenses, and analytics. The REST API, SSO, and custom reports stay on paid plans.
Can I export my data?
Your data isn't our hostage. Export to Excel or JSON, or move to a competitor in one click. We're confident enough in the product.
Why offer a free plan at all?
Free users tell us what to build next. And a free plan is where most small teams finally get off spreadsheets for good.
