How it works

Get started in 3 steps

1

Apply barcode labels

Label assets with barcodes in a format MapTrack supports. Standard barcode formats work with our scanning workflows.

2

Scan to identify and update

Field staff scan barcodes to open the asset record. Check in/out, update status or complete forms from the same screen. Dedicated scanners supported where needed.

3

Bulk scanning and audits

Run bulk scan workflows for verification and stocktakes. See what's present, missing or overdue. Same audit benefits as QR with barcode hardware.

Key benefits

Why teams choose MapTrack

Fast identification

No manual entry of asset IDs. Scan and go. Especially useful in storerooms or high-volume barcode environments.

Audit trail

Scan history and timestamps for accountability. Bulk scans give a clear picture for audits and loss control.

Works with QR

MapTrack supports both barcode and QR. Use barcode where you have existing labels or prefer barcode hardware; use QR where camera scanning is preferred.

One platform

Barcode-tracked assets sit with QR and GPS-tracked assets. One register, one set of compliance and maintenance workflows.

Use cases

Built for real operations

Storeroom and tool crib

Scan assets in and out of the storeroom. Track who has what. Run periodic bulk scans to verify stock and catch missing items.

Existing barcode labels

If you already use barcode labels on assets, MapTrack can work with compatible formats so you don't have to relabel everything.

Print and scan barcodes from your phone

Frequently asked questions

What barcode formats are supported?
We support common barcode formats. Contact us to confirm compatibility with your existing labels and scanners.
Can we use both barcode and QR?
Yes. MapTrack supports mixed tracking - barcode for some assets, QR for others, and GPS where devices are installed. One register for all.
Do we need dedicated scanners?
For barcode-heavy environments, dedicated scanners can be used where supported. For lower volume, smartphone or tablet cameras may work for QR; barcode often benefits from a scanner for speed.
