Lost in a Sea of SaaS: Compare 7 Solutions for Field Data & Asset Management
Regarding data tracking and asset management, the market has many software solutions that promise to save time and money. It's easy to get overwhelmed by the sheer number of options when deciding on the right approach for your business. If you're looking for a simple overview to outline the most popular solutions' features and benefits, you've come to the right place.
1. Asset Panda
Implemented by various universities and businesses, Asset Panda is a software solution that focuses solely on asset tracking, which means it doesn't necessarily support field audits. The service can save customers money by tracking expensive items through loss prevention and expedited processes. The software also includes the ability to create custom workflows and automated checklists.
2. Compliantia
This solution primarily concerns store auditing but includes task assignments and data collection capabilities. While this tool proves to be highly valuable for retail-focused industries, it lacks the robust asset tracking features of Asset Panda, EasyCheck, and GoSpotCheck.
3. ManagerPlus
One of the oldest players in the industry, ManagerPlus is a solution that focuses primarily on maintenance management. Their cloud-enabled software also has data analytics integrated directly into the app. While fairly comprehensive, ManagerPlus doesn't allow the photo- and location-enabled asset capturing that more modern solutions have.
4. OnTrak
Focused on aiding the beverage industry, this suite of software solutions comes in different a la carte packages focused on specific tasks. For example, SignTrak automates communication for sales, while LineTrak verifies that the draught line is clean. While the modular nature of their software may be appealing, the one-off functions can cause more confusion than a single integrated solution.
5. ZenPut
Zenput is a task assignment and auditing solution often compared to Compliantia. Similarly, the software targets retail businesses, with an added focus on restaurant operations. It aims to aid in field visibility and simplify workflows. However, Zenput does not include asset-tracking features that help capture real-time field data.
6. GoSpotCheck now Form.com
GoSpotCheck now Form.com is a well-known name for field execution management software and was recently purchased by form.com. GoSpotCheck now Form.com provides a variety of industries with the tools they need to collect data and evaluate efficiencies. While their workflows are reasonably robust, their SaaS cannot track assets and provide a comprehensive list of in-market items. GoSpotCheck now Form.com also has limited flexibility regarding task assignment---users can only complete field audits voluntarily rather than requested checks.
7. EasyCheck
EasyCheck is a comprehensive software solution that combines the best of Asset Panda's tracking features and the auditing and compliance features of Compliantia and GoSpotCheck. While they specialize in beverage distribution asset management, several industries have found their suite of tools invaluable for increasing field visibility and reducing slippage. Constant innovation and always-on mobile capabilities give them an industry edge over other options that don't provide as much flexibility.
The difference is in the details.
There are hundreds of asset tracking software options that promise to improve the way you work. But EasyCheck is the only complete SaaS that will truly revolutionize your entire physical asset management process --- from tap handle tracking to proof-of-compliance and more.
