The AssetTiger Alternative for Assets That Move

MapTrack is the AssetTiger alternative for teams whose assets move: GPS and BLE tracking, offline field use, real work-order maintenance, inspections and Australian support, with custom QR labels that link to a live asset record.

AssetTiger is a genuinely low-cost, simple fixed-asset register (from US$20 a month for 500 assets, after a 30-day free trial) that tracks by barcode and QR, recording GPS location only at check-in and check-out. Teams move to MapTrack when assets move across sites, go off-grid, need maintenance and compliance, or when they want AUD pricing and AU support.

AssetTiger is low-cost, simple asset-tag software (a 30-day free trial for 250 assets and 2 users, then from US$20 a month) that tracks by barcode and QR, with GPS location only at check-in and check-out and maintenance scheduled by date or usage hours. MapTrack is the AssetTiger alternative for teams whose assets move: it adds GPS and BLE tracking, real work-order maintenance, inspections and Australian support with AUD pricing, alongside offline-first field use, while still printing custom QR labels that link to a live asset record. MapTrack is one platform for every asset a field business runs: tools, plant, trailers and vehicles tracked with QR, barcode and Data Matrix labels, Bluetooth tags, GPS trackers and AI dash cams, with bookings, inspections, maintenance and parts on one record.

MapTrack publishes this page and is one of the alternatives discussed. Based on AssetTiger’s public documentation, pricing pages and named third-party reviews as of Oct 2026; confirm current features and pricing with each vendor and in a pilot.

What is AssetTiger?

AssetTiger is a low-cost, cloud-hosted asset-management application owned and operated by SmartSign, LLC of Brooklyn, New York, and run by the same team as the US tag retailer MyAssetTag.com. It gives small organisations a barcode and QR asset register with check-in and check-out, custom fields, reports and maintenance scheduling, all from a web app and a mobile app.

Its headline is price: a 30-day free trial covers up to 250 assets and 2 users, and paid plans run from US$20 per month (500 assets) to US$275 per month (250,000 assets), all with unlimited users. AssetTiger tracks assets by barcode and QR scanning and records GPS location at check-in and check-out, but it has no live GPS tracking; its iOS and Android app works offline, and it offers a REST API. Physical tags are bought separately from MyAssetTag.com, which ships from the US. It is a capable, well-reviewed register (4.6/5 on Capterra) for small, simple, mostly fixed-asset environments.

Why teams look for an AssetTiger alternative

AssetTiger is a strong low-cost register for small, simple setups. Teams typically look for an alternative when their assets start to move, when they need maintenance or compliance, or when they want Australian support:

You have outgrown a simple register

Teams switch when a small fixed-asset list grows into tools, plant, equipment and vehicles across sites, with custody, inspections, maintenance and costs on each asset’s record. MapTrack uses per-asset pricing with unlimited users so the whole field team has access.

You need GPS, not just scans

AssetTiger tracks by barcode and QR and records GPS location only at check-in and check-out. When you need to see where plant, vehicles and high-value gear are between scans, MapTrack adds GPS and BLE tracking plus 150+ telematics, fleet and fuel-card data sources.

You need real maintenance

AssetTiger schedules maintenance by date or usage hours, with basic work orders. Teams that run servicing switch for MapTrack work orders triggered by meters, inspections and schedules, with full service history on each asset, run hours from GPS trackers, AI dash cams and OEM feeds, and tiered service plans.

Your crews work offline, pre-starts included

AssetTiger’s iOS and Android app works offline, but it does not document pre-start or inspection checklists. MapTrack is offline-first: scan and complete forms, including pre-starts and inspections, with no signal and sync later, which matters on remote sites, underground and in yards.

You need inspections and compliance

AssetTiger logs inspection results, but it does not document pre-start or inspection checklists. MapTrack ties pre-starts, inspections and evidence to each asset, with a failed check able to trigger a work order automatically.

You want Australian support

AssetTiger is a US company (SmartSign LLC, Brooklyn NY) pricing in USD and does not state its hosting region. MapTrack is Australian-founded with AUD pricing, primary database and application hosting in Sydney, and onshore support.

Which platform fits your team?

Pick the persona that sounds most like you. The recommendation reflects each platform based on publicly documented capabilities as at October 2026.

The small office or school with a fixed-asset list

Do you have a few hundred fixed assets, a couple of admins and a tight budget, and you just need a barcode register and audits?

AssetTiger may be all you need. Its entry plan covers 500 assets for US$20 a month with unlimited users, it is simple to set up and it rates 4.6 on Capterra. If your assets stay put and you do not need live GPS tracking or real work orders, its low price is hard to beat.

The field operator with assets that move

Do tools, plant and equipment move between people, jobs and sites, often where there is no signal?

Choose MapTrack. AssetTiger tracks by barcode and QR, with GPS location only at check-in and check-out, and its app works offline. MapTrack adds GPS and BLE tracking and live location, alongside offline-first mobile, so you can find and account for gear in the field, not just see where it was last scanned.

The maintenance or compliance lead

Do you need real work orders, meter-based servicing and pre-starts or inspections tied to each asset?

Choose MapTrack. AssetTiger schedules maintenance by date or usage hours and has shallow work orders, with inspection results logged but no pre-start or inspection checklists documented. MapTrack runs work orders with meter and inspection triggers plus AS/NZS-style pre-starts and inspections on the asset record.

Learn more →

The Australian team that wants local support

Do you need AUD pricing, a Sydney-hosted primary database and onshore support rather than a US vendor?

Choose MapTrack. AssetTiger is operated by SmartSign LLC in Brooklyn, New York, prices in USD and does not publish its hosting region or support hours. MapTrack is Australian-founded with AUD pricing, primary database and application hosting in Sydney, and a local rollout team.

How MapTrack compares to AssetTiger

Which tracks assets that move?

MapTrack adds GPS, BLE and OEM telematics. AssetTiger is barcode and QR, with GPS location only at check-in and check-out.

AssetTiger identifies assets by barcode and QR scanning, which is fine for fixed assets you audit at a location. It records GPS location when an asset is checked in or out, but not live location. MapTrack covers QR and barcode for identification, then adds GPS and BLE hardware for live location and geofences, plus 150+ telematics, fleet and fuel-card data sources for meter readings. If your assets move between people, jobs and sites, MapTrack shows you where they are, not just that they were scanned.

Which is cheaper?

AssetTiger is genuinely low-cost, from US$20 a month for 500 assets. MapTrack wins on depth and Australian fit, not price at small scale.

We will be straight about this: for a small, simple fixed-asset register, AssetTiger costs from US$20 a month for 500 assets, after a 30-day free trial, and is hard to beat on price. MapTrack is not free; it offers a 30-day trial then per-asset pricing with unlimited users. The reason to choose MapTrack is not a lower price at small scale, it is what you get for the money: GPS, offline pre-starts, real maintenance, inspections, integrations and Australian support. If price at small scale is the only factor, AssetTiger is the rational pick.

Which does real maintenance?

MapTrack runs work orders with meter and inspection triggers. AssetTiger schedules maintenance by date or usage hours.

AssetTiger has maintenance scheduling by date or usage hours and email reminders, plus shallow work orders (due date, status, cost). Independent reviews note no built-in communication and no predictive maintenance. MapTrack runs full work orders triggered by runtime or odometer meters, failed inspections or schedules, with parts, costs and service history on the asset. For teams where uptime and servicing matter, that is the difference between a usage schedule and a workflow: work orders raised automatically from meter readings, run hours from GPS trackers, AI dash cams and OEM feeds, tiered service plans and one work order across many assets.

Which handles inspections and compliance?

MapTrack ties pre-starts and inspections to each asset. AssetTiger logs inspection results but documents no checklists.

AssetTiger logs inspection results and calibration certificates, with an out-of-calibration lockout, but it does not document pre-start or inspection checklists. MapTrack ties pre-starts, inspections and custom forms to the asset record, stores evidence and certificates, and can trigger a work order from a failed check. For Australian operators where WHS plant inspection is the regulatory baseline, that on-asset compliance trail is a core reason to choose MapTrack.

Which integrates with your stack?

MapTrack has a public API and 150+ telematics, fleet and fuel-card data sources. AssetTiger documents a REST API and Google Maps, but no telematics or fuel-card feeds.

AssetTiger documents a REST API (full CRUD access via api.assettiger.com), a Google Maps integration and Google sign-on, and says ERP, ITSM and BI links are built on that API, but it documents no telematics, fleet or fuel-card feeds. MapTrack offers a public API, webhooks and 150+ telematics, fleet and fuel-card data sources on its higher plans, so meter data, fault codes and location flow in automatically. If you need telematics and fuel data connected, not just a register with an API, this is decisive. Confirm what AssetTiger’s API covers if it matters to you.

Which is built for Australia?

MapTrack is AU-founded with AUD pricing and primary systems hosted in Sydney. AssetTiger is a US company.

AssetTiger is owned and operated by SmartSign LLC in Brooklyn, New York, prices in USD, and does not publish its hosting region or support hours. MapTrack is Australian-founded and headquartered, prices in AUD, has its primary database and application hosting in Sydney, and provides onshore support and a local rollout team. For Australian teams that care about documented data location, local pricing and local support, MapTrack is the practical choice.

Where AssetTiger wins

AssetTiger is a genuinely good product for the right use case. A fair comparison should be clear about where it is the better choice:

Genuinely low-cost at small scale

A 30-day free trial for up to 250 assets and 2 users, then flat USD tiers from US$20 a month with unlimited users and no per-seat charge. For a small office, school or IT store, that is hard to beat.

Simple and fast to set up

Reviewers consistently praise the low learning curve and quick onboarding. AssetTiger rates 4.6/5 on Capterra with a 4.7 value-for-money sub-score.

Solid barcode check-in / check-out

Strong core barcode and QR scanning, check-in/out with overdue reporting, internal loans with their cost to the lending department, custom fields and reports on asset status, depreciation and maintenance history.

Tight tag ecosystem (including metal)

Through sister company MyAssetTag, AssetTiger pairs with a wide range of printed tags, including published anodised-aluminium metal tag options. MapTrack prices QR labels online and quotes aluminium, stainless steel or steel tags when a metal option is required.

Unlimited users on every paid tier

Like MapTrack, AssetTiger does not charge per seat; paid plans include unlimited users, which keeps costs predictable as your team grows.

Frequently asked questions: AssetTiger vs MapTrack

No. AssetTiger no longer has a free plan: it offers a 30-day free trial for up to 250 assets and 2 users (per the AssetTiger pricing page, October 2026). Paid tiers start at US$20 per month for 500 assets and rise to US$275 per month for 250,000 assets, all with unlimited users. Pricing is in USD. MapTrack does not offer a permanent free tier; it offers a 30-day free trial with full access.

AssetTiger is owned and operated by SmartSign, LLC, based in Brooklyn, New York (per the AssetTiger terms of service, June 2026), and is run by the same team as the US tag retailer MyAssetTag.com. It is not an Australian company and does not publish its hosting region or local support hours. MapTrack is Australian-founded and headquartered, with AUD pricing, primary database and application hosting in Sydney, and an Australian rollout team.

AssetTiger tracks assets by barcode and QR scanning, and its app records GPS location when an asset is checked in or out. It does not offer GPS trackers or live location tracking. If you need to see where plant, vehicles or high-value gear are between scans, MapTrack adds GPS and BLE tracking plus 150+ telematics, fleet and fuel-card data sources. Verify current AssetTiger capabilities directly if GPS is essential.

Yes. AssetTiger’s features page says its iOS and Android app works offline; test it in a trial if your teams work in low-coverage areas. MapTrack is offline-first: field crews scan and complete forms without connectivity and sync when back online, which matters on remote sites, underground or in yards.

AssetTiger provides maintenance scheduling by date or usage hours and configurable email reminders, plus basic work orders (a due date, status and cost). Independent reviews note there is no built-in communication and no predictive maintenance. If maintenance is central to your operation, MapTrack runs full work orders triggered by meters, inspections and schedules, with service history on each asset, run hours from GPS trackers, AI dash cams and OEM feeds, and tiered service plans.

AssetTiger documents a REST API with full CRUD access to 14 resource groups via api.assettiger.com, a Google Maps integration and Google sign-on, and lists ERP, ITSM, HR and BI links built on that API, but it documents no telematics, fleet or fuel-card feeds, so confirm directly with AssetTiger if integration matters. MapTrack offers a public API, webhooks and 150+ telematics, fleet and fuel-card data sources on its higher plans.

Yes. AssetTiger lets you reserve equipment for a date range and see its availability. If you share gear across crews and jobs and need to reserve specific assets for specific dates, MapTrack includes reservations and a planning view so you can avoid double-booking, and once a booking is approved, a scan at pick-up turns it into a check-out. Confirm AssetTiger reservation capability in a trial if you need it.

AssetTiger rates 4.6/5 from 271 reviews on Capterra (June 2026). Reviewers praise the generous free tier, simple setup and barcode check-in/out. Common complaints are a clunky, laggy mobile app (the iOS app rates 3.3/5), limited modern integrations, broad user roles with weak granular access (AssetTiger now lists 120+ permission settings and custom roles), and frustration when free-tier caps changed and custom-field data was lost on downgrade.

No. AssetTiger lets you use your existing tags or buy from its sister company MyAssetTag.com, and buying tags earns a free month of service. MyAssetTag sells durable metal ranges (such as anodised aluminium) that ship from the US. MapTrack prints custom hard-laminated polycarbonate QR labels in Australia from 100 per size, and every label links to a live MapTrack asset record.

Export your asset register and history from AssetTiger as CSV. Upload it into MapTrack, where AI-assisted import auto-matches your column headings, and our team maps your sites, categories and custom fields. Guided setup and crew training are included, and most teams are operational within a week.

When you have a few hundred fixed assets that stay in one place, a small admin team, a tight budget and no need for live GPS tracking, real work orders or inspections, AssetTiger’s low-cost plans are an excellent fit. MapTrack is the better choice when assets move across sites and crews, go off-grid, need maintenance and compliance workflows, or when you want Australian support and AUD pricing.

Yes. AssetTiger reviewers note it can struggle with very large inventories. MapTrack is built for mixed fleets across multiple sites, with per-asset pricing, unlimited users, SSO, RBAC and primary database and application hosting in Sydney, so it scales from a single crew to multi-site operations without a per-seat penalty.

Yes. MapTrack is one platform for every asset a field business runs: tools, plant, trailers and vehicles, tracked with QR, barcode and Data Matrix labels, Bluetooth tags, GPS trackers and AI dash cams, and inspected, booked and maintained on one record, from any phone. It is priced per asset with unlimited users and holds Capterra’s Best Ease of Use award for 2026.

Yes. GPS trackers are registered in MapTrack with their battery, signal and last report, each tracker is assigned to an asset, and the run hours and kilometres it estimates feed your service plans. Live tracking and trip history run in MapTrack Telematics.

Yes. MapTrack sells AI dash cams and shows their live video and saved 30-second event clips in the MapTrack app, beside each vehicle’s pre-starts, servicing and costs. ADAS alerts are on the Pro plan and driver monitoring is on the Advanced plan.

Yes. MapTrack rate cards set daily, weekly and monthly hire rates by asset category or individual asset, for dry, wet or standby hire, and record the hire cost when equipment comes back. Finance dashboards keep a cost ledger for every asset, location and person, with budget vs actual, depreciation and repair-or-replace guidance. Divisions give each division its own assets and team access, while account owners see across every division. Rate cards, finance and divisions are an add-on on the Pro and Enterprise plans.
