Managing school equipment across classrooms, campuses, and departments can quickly become overwhelming. From Chromebooks and science lab tools to classroom furniture and projectors, schools need a reliable way to track, assign, and maintain their physical and digital assets. That’s where AssetCenter comes in.
Why Schools Need Asset Tracking Software
Schools today juggle a wide array of assets, including:
- Student laptops and tablets
- Audio-visual equipment
- Textbooks and eBooks
- IT infrastructure
- Furniture and facility equipment
- Educational subscriptions and software licenses
Without a centralized system, it’s easy to lose track of what’s where, who’s responsible, and when something needs repair or replacement. Manual spreadsheets just don’t scale.
Key Benefits of School Asset Tracking with AssetCenter
Track Assets Across Campuses and Classrooms
Assign equipment to classrooms, staff, or students and always know what belongs where. Whether your school has one building or multiple locations, AssetCenter gives you complete visibility.
Assign to People or Rooms
Easily assign items to specific teachers, students, or classrooms. Filter by person, department, or grade level to get a clear picture of inventory responsibility.
Monitor Maintenance and Repairs

Asset Life cycle Timelines

Managing Asset Life cycles
After your assets are entered you can go to an asset from the assets page in the top navigation. Below is an image of a fictional asset. The actions button in the top right is how you manage this asset. From that button you can make comments, track warranties, assign people and locations, record maintenance and its life cycle. Track whether it has been sold, recycled, put in storage, or retired.
