Welcome to UniAsset — Your Asset Operations Platform

4 minBeginnerLast updated: January 2, 2026

Welcome to UniAsset

UniAsset is an Asset Operations Platform — one system of record for everything your organization owns, maintains, and is accountable for.

It answers the questions that are hard to answer without a dedicated system: Where is this asset? Who is responsible for it? When was it last serviced? What has it actually cost us? Is it still worth keeping?

What UniAsset brings together

AreaWhat you get
Asset lifecycleAcquisition, assignment, custody, movement, disposal
Maintenance operationsPreventive schedules, work orders, inspections, SLAs
Financial intelligenceDepreciation, net book value, total cost of ownership, the Fixed Asset Register
GovernanceAppend-only history, immutable incident evidence, document expiry tracking

The four asset modules

Everything you track lives in one of four modules. Picking the right one is the most important early decision.

ModuleUse it forQuantity
AssetsAn individually identified item — one laptop, one forkliftNo
Asset StockQuantity-held capital items — ten spare laptops in the store roomYes, ledger-backed
ConsumablesSupplies that get used up — filters, toner, fastenersYes
DocumentsA document that is the asset — a licence, permit, certificateNo

See Understanding the four asset types for a decision guide.

Who uses UniAsset

  • Operations managers accountable for physical assets and equipment cost
  • IT managers tracking hardware, device assignment, licence and warranty expiry
  • Facilities managers running preventive schedules on building systems
  • Finance teams who need defensible depreciation and asset cost data
  • Lab and clinical managers with calibration and compliance obligations

There is no minimum or maximum size. A five-person team and a fifty-thousand-asset estate use the same product.

Plans at a glance

Assets are unlimited on every plan, including the free one. You are never asked to upgrade because you have too many assets.

What UniAsset is not

Knowing the boundaries saves time evaluating it:

  • Not an ERP. No procurement, purchase orders, accounts payable, or general ledger.
  • Not a full CMMS. Work orders, SLAs and checklists ship, but not technician dispatch optimisation or shift scheduling.
  • Not a warehouse system. No bin locations, pick-and-pack, or shipping workflows.
  • Not an IT service desk. No ticket queues or change management.
  • Not a real-time IoT automation platform. Telemetry is ingested and displayed; nothing reacts to a signal automatically.

Your first hour

  1. Set up your structure — a few categories, locations and departments. See the Quick start guide.
  2. Create an asset — or import your existing list. See Creating your first asset and How to import assets from CSV.
  3. Invite your team — with the right role for each person. See How to invite team members.
  4. Learn the dashboard — See Dashboard and navigation overview.

No configuration is required before your first asset. System asset statuses exist from the moment your organization is created.
