What are the best open-source options for inventory and asset management?

I’ve heard my boss rave about assetDB, and I’m setting up a test environment on SharePoint to show him its benefits. It could be worth checking out if you're looking for something flexible.

You could look into SnipeIT or GLPi for asset management. But honestly, for tracking devices, it can be a lot of work, so think about your company’s size and needs. If you have around 50 employees and a mix of devices, starting with Google Sheets might be the best route initially, especially as your workforce is likely to grow.

For passwords, you can’t go wrong with Bitwarden or Vaultwarden. I find them really efficient and user-friendly.

Snipe-IT is solid, but managing it can take a lot of time and effort. Think about what exactly you need: for passwords, Bitwarden is great, especially if you want a free single-user option. If you're concerned about cloud services, consider setting up a local KeePass database. For documentation, if you have Google Workspace or Microsoft 365, just utilize those platforms to create and share your documents. They are simple and effective. Depending on how many devices you have, sometimes a basic spreadsheet can be the simplest solution to start with.

For inventory and asset management, I recommend checking out Snipe-IT. It's quite user-friendly and you can choose to host it yourself or go for a managed service for a few bucks. However, it doesn’t handle passwords or documentation directly, so for password management, I’d suggest using Bitwarden. It’s reliable and has a free option for single users.
