What MaxAsset is

MaxAsset is paid, on-premise software for fixed-asset tracking and management on Windows and macOS. It records identifying and purchasing details such as type, make, model, serial number, location, division, assigned person, and maintenance contract. Separate tax and book depreciation calculations support alternate methods and rates, while defined general-ledger accounts can produce journal entries automatically. Reports include asset summaries, additions, depreciation schedules and projections, accounting entries, insurance values, labels, and ad hoc reports. Standard and Manager editions are available. Manager adds maintenance, lease management, network tracking, transfer management, and portable data collection. Barcode labeling works with scanners from Opticon Sensors, Telxon, Nippon Denso, and Videx. Configurable passwords and access controls protect system functions. HTS describes MaxAsset as a real-time multi-user system for networks including NetWare and AppleShare. Standard costs 995.00 AUD once; Manager costs 1995.00 AUD once; an extra user costs 595.00 AUD once.
