Our offer

From the idea to ongoing asset management

You don’t have to build Snipe-IT alone. We accompany you step by step – and stay by your side afterwards.

Step 1

Analysis & Concept

We review your assets, systems and requirements and plan together which asset types, fields and workflows make sense to record and manage. This results in a lean ITAM concept that is not unnecessarily complex and can be easily operated later on.

"

Step 2

Setup & Integration

We set up Snipe-IT, asset templates, custom fields, users, permissions and suitable integrations to fit perfectly. A clean asset and role concept ensures that administration remains clear and operations can be controlled efficiently.

"

Step 3

Commissioning & management

Your Snipe IT setup goes live, assets are centrally recorded, managed and tracked. This gives you transparency about the availability, allocation and status of your IT assets - instead of keeping manual lists that nobody updates.

Step 4

Support & Operations

On request, we can take over the ongoing operation completely or support your team with support and training - so that your Snipe IT remains stable, up-to-date and practical.

Snipe-IT Features

More overview instead of extra work: Snipe-IT ensures transparent asset management, reduces manual effort and helps you keep track of audits at all times.

Central asset management

Manage laptops, servers, licenses or accessories in one place – with serial number, warranty and location for each asset. This allows you to keep the entire life cycle under control.

Users and locations

Assign assets to users or locations and track transfers and returns. You always know who is using which device – this reduces losses and stock shortages.

Notifications

Reminders for maintenance, warranty expirations or license extensions can be individually adapted. This way you never miss a deadline and keep your assets up to date.

License management

Manage software licenses centrally, track consumption and expiration dates and receive timely warnings. This way you optimize costs and no license expires unnoticed.

User-defined fields

With your own fields and field sets, you can record exactly the asset information you need. This allows you to flexibly adapt Snipe-IT to your individual requirements.

QR code & barcode labels

Generate QR codes and barcodes and print them as labels. You can identify assets immediately using a scanner or smartphone – this simplifies stocktaking and tracking enormously.
