5.0

Ethan T.: Hi, my name is Ethan. I'm an operations manager in higher education. I give Asset Panda a five out of five. For more reviews, click the link below. The university I work at has its own internal proprietary asset management tracker software. It was just relatively limited so it didn't give us a lot of the customization tools that Asset Panda did. So we work with Asset Panda in conjunction with what's required at my university. I chose Asset Panda because of its user-friendliness and its ability to allow users to customize basically anything that we'd ever want for tracking assets. I think I started with Asset Panda about four years ago. So since then, they've actually updated a lot of their platform to make it a lot more user-friendly to get started. The onboarding process I think is a lot easier now than it was back when I first started. I would recommend for new users to check out all the forums and online materials to see what other people have done with Asset Panda. There are a lot of power users out there that are really taking it as far as it can go. Start small, but then research into seeing what other people are doing and you'll be pretty impressed.
