# AssetCenter > AssetCenter is browser-based asset accountability and lifecycle tracking software for small and midsize teams that need to know what they own, who has it, where it is, and what happened. AssetCenter keeps equipment, devices, vehicles, tools, people, locations, and subscriptions connected to current custody, location, costs, documents, and lifecycle history on one timeline. It can serve as a human-managed system of record, but it does not replace automated discovery, endpoint management, a help desk, procurement, accounting, or warehouse inventory software. ## Primary pages - [Product overview](https://assetcenter.app/): What AssetCenter tracks and how its unified timeline works. - [Features](https://assetcenter.app/features): Inventory records, assignments, barcode scanning, lifecycle history, maintenance, costs, alerts, and reports. - [Location Map report](https://assetcenter.app/features/location-map): Current asset assignments plotted by location with category and status filters, site-level asset details, and unmapped exceptions. - [Assignment History Map](https://assetcenter.app/features/assignment-history-map): One asset's recorded locations, repeat visits, timeframes, and timeline events arranged geographically. - [GPS Tracking](https://assetcenter.app/features/gps-tracking): Optional live positions, motion state, timestamps, and recorded route replay for compatible tracker-equipped assets. - [Equipment tracking software](https://assetcenter.app/equipment-tracking-software): Equipment identity, barcode scanning, custody, location, maintenance, costs, and lifecycle history. - [Fixed asset management software](https://assetcenter.app/fixed-asset-management-software): Fixed asset register, assignments, lifecycle history, straight-line depreciation, and end-of-life reporting. - [Pricing](https://assetcenter.app/pricing): Permanent Free account for up to 25 assets, plus paid-plan limits, 14-day trials, and billing terms. - [IT inventory tracking](https://assetcenter.app/industries/it): The product workflow for IT hardware, licenses, subscriptions, warranties, assignments, and refresh dates. - [Microsoft Entra ID directory sync](https://assetcenter.app/integrations/microsoft-entra-id): Sync People from chosen Entra groups, with identity details, email matching, and inactive status instead of deletion. - [Apple Business device import](https://assetcenter.app/integrations/apple-business): Import the Apple hardware an organization owns with serial numbers, order numbers, purchase dates, and AppleCare coverage. - [User manual](https://assetcenter.app/manual): Product documentation and operating instructions. - [About AssetCenter](https://assetcenter.app/about): Company and founder information. ## IT asset management guides - [What Is IT Asset Management (ITAM)?
