### "Reftab Asset Management"

April 20, 2021

4.0

Pros

Reftab is a great package what creates and gives ease of use of asset management. It's structured and clear.

Cons

I'm missing some features such as bulk transfer or bulk assign to user but that's quite it, further it's quite neatly build!

Hi Lucien, thank you for the review - the ability to bulk assign to a user exists in a couple different places, such as the asset table and the mobile app. Meaning you can assign multiple different assets and peripherals / accessories to users at once. I think the place you're looking for is within the accessory page. This is easy for us to add and will have it ready for our next release. Thank you again for your review!

### "Reftab in Higher Ed."

October 2, 2025

5.0

We evaluated many SaaS asset management systems and reftab was far above for our needs. The product and support are excellent.

Pros

Reftab is extremely easy to setup and use. Its numerous integrations with MDMs and Entra ID make it a wonderfully accurate asset management and inventory management. The learning curve is easy and the documentation thorough.

Cons

Specifically for our college, we'd love to have a financial area where we can easily upload purchase orders and link them to assets.

Hi Cyrille! Thank you so much for this wonderful review! In fact, we recently released an update that allows files to be attached to assets from the bulk edit screen, making it easy to link POs to several assets at once. Next, we plan to extend the vendor feature, which currently links to software, so it can also connect to hardware too. Your input helps us keep improving, and we’re grateful to have you as part of the Reftab community.

### "Good but can improve "

March 4, 2026

3.0

Good with a slight cast of issues as previously said above, need more support and more features to make it more work friendly

Pros

The website is good and accessible sometimes there are some hitches in the system and I wish that there was more support

Cons

I do not like that there isn’t categories for kits or accessories, it makes it a lot harder for our front facing clients to navigate

Response from Reftab

March 6, 2026

Thank you for sharing your feedback! We’re glad to hear that you find the platform accessible and useful overall, and we appreciate you pointing out areas where your experience could be improved. Regarding categories for kits and accessories, those can actually be configured within Reftab. In both the Kits and Accessories sections, there’s a “Custom Categories” button at the top of the page that allows you to create and manage categories. This can help organize items and make things much easier for those front-facing users to navigate. We also appreciate your comments about support and additional features. In the top right corner of your screen, you’ll see a “?” icon. Clicking that will let you send a message directly to our Support Team. Our team is always happy to help and take a closer look with you. Thanks again for taking the time to leave a review, feedback like this helps us continue improving the platform and the overall experience for teams using it every day!

### "Great product with room to improve "

October 4, 2025

4.0

Reftab is a reliable and cost-effective asset management tool. The equipment signing feature is especially useful, and support is consistently responsive. While integration with Intune is helpful, data input still feels manual and some fields like RAM and processor don’t map correctly. It also lacks visibility into installed software.

Pros

The signing feature for equipment issuance is our favorite. It’s simple, efficient, and keeps everything accountable. The support team is very helpful whenever issues arise. Reftab offers great value for the price, delivering strong functionality without breaking the budget.

Cons

The platform still feels quite manual when it comes to data input. Integration with Intune is helpful, but not all fields map correctly. Details like RAM and processor often don’t come through. It also doesn’t pull software installed on our computers, which limits visibility into our full asset profile.

Alternatives considered

Response from Reftab

October 6, 2025

Thank you so much for your review! We’re thrilled you’re finding value in Reftab’s signing feature and support. Feedback like yours truly helps us improve. Regarding the Intune integration, the missing RAM and Processor data stem from limitations in Microsoft’s Graph API. Intune’s Physical Memory property currently returns 0, and processor details aren’t exposed at all. Because of this, we’ve removed those fields until Microsoft updates their API. We are actively exploring ways to use other Graph API endpoints to enhance data collection, (though this is a resource-intensive process) . But, your feedback reinforces that this is an area worth continued investment. Regarding pulling in installed software on computers, Reftab has the ability to do this with Intune. It might be that you don't have permissions set properly, reach out to our support staff and we'll happily get that setup for you. Thanks again for taking the time to provide your feedback!

### "Would highly recommend"

October 1, 2025

4.0

Reftab fits the bill. Easy to use, customizable, able to automate. It's what I needed for IAM.I have implemented it for three different companies and have found it to fit those business needs each time. Departments can have the data they request in an easy report. I can automate audits and verifications. I can customize the end user notifications. It fits the bill.

Pros

Reftab gives me the granularity that I want, but the ease of auditing with automations. You can customize it to almost exactly what you need. Their support is awesome to work with and easy to contact. The product itself is visually appealing and simple to navigate for admins. The integrations alone have been a game changer for us.

Cons

A lot of the cons are feature requests that I've put in. Generally its the lack of something existing that is a con to me. Or finding something that you wish worked a little better. none of them are deal breakers for me.

### "Reftab Makes Inventory Management Easy"

October 3, 2025

5.0

My overall experience with Reftab has been excellent. The platform is reliable, user-friendly, and consistently meets our daily inventory needs.

Pros

Reftab is one of our go-to inventory applications that we rely on daily. It's intuitive, fast, and consistently reliable. The support team has always been friendly, responsive, and genuinely helpful

Cons

What I find most challenging about Reftab is generating the reports I need. I often encounter issues when trying to filter specific items, which can slow down the process and make it harder to extract the right data.

Hi Johnnie, Thank you so much for the wonderful review! We’re thrilled to hear that Reftab has become one of your go-to tools and that our support team has made a positive impression. We truly appreciate your feedback about reporting, it’s an area we’re continually improving to make filtering and data extraction faster and more intuitive. So far, we've started introducing pre-made report templates. But feel free to reach out to our team anytime you need help, we'll jump on a Zoom or send screenshots to help build the exact report you need in your account. Your input helps shape those improvements, and we’re grateful to have you as a valued customer.

### "Reftab keeps track of our stuff and saves us money!!!"

October 1, 2025

5.0

Overall it has allowed us to keep easy track of our computers, supply stocks, and made it easier to offboard people and make sure we get all of their equipment/ devices back. So in the long run probably saves us a lot of money which is huge for a non-profit like us.

Pros

I love the ease of use, customizability, and different use cases. Reftab allows us to keep close track of anything from high dollar assests, computers, monitors, and accessories, all the way down to product licenses and general supplies.

Cons

When I connected our NinjaRMM it added a bunch of duplicate devices, most likely "user error". I think it should cross reference serial numbers, where a lot of our Dell's use the service tag which is most of the devices we have.

### "Reftab is a huge help."

February 27, 2026

4.0

Overall, my experience with reftab has been great. I inherited the task of running it for my company, and it has been a work in progress for us. With that being said, it has been a huge help in the increase of efficiency for the whole company.

Pros

Reftab has given me the ability to keep my large inventory in order. With the large inventory we have a lot of moving pieces and the automated alerts to our employees have been very helpful.

Cons

The only thing that has not been great is the audit system. I was not able to do an inventory audit on through reftab because it seems to only work if you are scanning the inventory. We do not use a scanning system, so I just did it by hand. If there is a way to work around this, I would love to know.

Thank you so much for sharing your experience! We’re thrilled to hear that Reftab has helped you bring order to your fast-moving inventory. It’s especially great to hear that it’s improved efficiency across the company, that’s exactly what we aim for! We also really appreciate the feedback about the audit feature. While scanning is a common method for audits, there are ways to complete audits without a dedicated scanning setup, and we’d be more than happy to walk you through those options to better fit your workflow. Please feel free to reach out to our support team so we can help tailor the process to your needs. Thanks again for the thoughtful review and for all the work you’ve put into optimizing the system for your organization!

### "Would Recommend to anyone with a moderately large inventory they are keeping track of"

March 6, 2026

5.0

my experience is positive overall. it has greatly improved the way we manage assets as well as our ordering and asset destruction habits

Pros

Love the inventory management features that also allow us to send alerts when low on items. it's highly customizable. as someone in IT, the ability to integrate with our environment using the built in autopilot and dell integrations is also a much appreciated feature.

Cons

you can't have more than one window open at a time. very annoying especially when trying to see assets while also attempting to print asset labels for them.

Review Source

Response from Reftab

March 10, 2026

Thank you for the great review! We’re glad to hear the inventory management tools and low-stock alerts have been helpful, and that the customization options are working well for your team. We appreciate the feedback about working with multiple windows. We understand how helpful it can be to reference assets while printing labels or completing other tasks. Fortunately, Reftab does not prevent this within the application. It sounds like this may be an outside factor preventing this. Feel free to reach out to our support team and we'd be happy to troubleshoot this a bit further for you! Thanks again for sharing your experience. We’re happy to hear Reftab has helped improve how your team manages assets, purchasing, and asset lifecycle processes!

### "Great system "

March 2, 2026

4.0

Largely positive from a technical point of view, some bugs and issues but always responded to quickly by the development team

Pros

Functionality for asset and license management - stock auditing and checking in/out is noticeably easier than other asset management systems

Cons

The user portal doesn’t work well at all on mobile devices, and making reservations for multiple assets isn’t very streamlined

it's the central be all end all software we are using here for all assets management, software management, offboarding and onboarding stuff.

Cons

getting it in the system took some patience, but once it was all set up it is so easy and intuitive. This will make my life so much easier and streamlined. would highly recommend

Pros

I liked the customer service and ease of learning the system. I was able to have a zoom meeting and learn everything quickly. I also feel confident if i have a future question i will get a real person to help with my issue.

Cons

the integration of my current stock of things could be easier. adding my stock of items was tedious and felt a little outdated, but once in the system it works wonderfully.

February 16, 2023

4.0

Being able to track all assets, accessories, and consumables throughout our organization has been a game changer and will help us eliminate each department having their own spreadsheets for tracking which employees have what.

Pros

It's easy to use and reasonably priced. The fact that it can track assets, accessories, consumables, and licenses in an easy way with the ability to grant users access only to what they should be able to see was a deciding factor in selecting Reftab over other competitors.

Cons

The lack of report customization and the inability to filter accessories from consumables.

### "Reftab Review"

May 28, 2024

5.0

Overall Reftab has been a five star product. Very easy and simple to use. If you aren't able to figure a task out they have helpful documents explaining each process step by step or customer service is very responsive and friendly to work with.

Pros

Easy to understand and use. This software is very simple and straight forward and very customizable.

Cons

You can't change the fields in the LDAP sync to custom fields such as Screen size etc. If importing machines you can't have the asset status set to in stock automatically. Which means you have to go to each asset and change the status manually. You can make a Workflow Automation that changes the asset status automatically for any new asset added after creation.

We have a patch management software we use that runs off an installable agent and will take a back seat to anything else that runs off an agent. Reftab was one of the only options that didn't require the install of an agent.

### "Reftab is awesome"

August 26, 2020

5.0

I needed to find a solution to manage checkout hardware for staff and students. Anything from laptops to slide rulers. I checked into several options. Some free, some where the startup cost was over $5K. When I found Reftab, I was sold right away. It was so easy to get setup and it covered everything I needed. But then, there's the tech support and customer service aspect. Wholly cow, the Reftab team is on it!!! I've run into a few cases where I could use a feature. I submitted my use case and OMG, they developed it and implemented it. Now, if I asked for something that no one would use, mileage could vary, but they respond quickly and really seem to understand my needs as a customer. The product is great, but the support is what really sold me!

Pros

Reftab is really intuitive. I setup my first instance without needing any support and barely glancing at the documentation. I had a fully functioning demo running with assets and testing check in check out in about an hour of signing up for a demo account. The mobile app adds to that intuitive use.

Cons

I wish I could tie printing inventory labels to my Dymo labelwriter and use a label template to print more customized intentory labels right from the Dymo. OK... I haven't asked if that was possible, yet.

I enjoy Reftab and would definitely recommended to anyone who's interest in an asset tracking software. The way we introduce accessories and the limitation on that area are some things i would improve but over all a good product.

Pricing is reasonable out of the box, support is awesome, product continues to expand as our organization expands.

Pros

Support is amazing. Quick and very knowledgeable. Software is flexible and easy to navigate. The product has new features being added continuously.

Cons

All of the least like items we have, are either being addressed or on the list to address. Pricing to expand is expensive and could be more reasonable to add on as the organization grows.

Pros

Ease of setup and great support with getting things configured correctly. I like how they are continuing to add integrations to make management a true one pane of glass experience.

Cons

It is a very robust system with a lot of options that are not necessary for my environment making things a bit confusing and cluttered. Would be nice to disable some of the features.

October 29, 2024

4.0

Reftab is just what I needed to help us track our equipment as we regularly check things in and out to students. Each of the different instructors can know exactly where the equipment is as well.

Pros

I can check out our school equipment to students seamlessly with the app on my phone or on my computer. I can also track and run reports regarding the status of the equipment. This is just what our program needed at a great price.

Cons

The UI of the app and the desktop version would greatly improve the product.

### "Flirted with alternatives, but Reftab is worth sticking with"

June 21, 2024

5.0

I really believe that this service should be as well known as the most popular solutions, and it really deserves to be.

Pros

Quite simply, the developers are so responsive, that issues and suggestions are acted upon and that makes such a difference to the product today. The flexibility of fields and categories means that it could fit all possible use cases. The self service portal is really handy and user friendly. Settings are plentiful so you can get things as close as you can to how you want it. It's simple, yet powerful and has so so much potential. We were looking at the better known alternatives whilst testing reftab as there were a few niggles and add-on which should be as part of the standard package (when compared to competitors) but this is all resolved and I'm really glad we stuck by it.

Cons

Reporting is a little lacklustre, it is basically a filter and that's about it. It would be good to see formatted, client friendly reports, as well as checkout receipts, packing lists, hire terms and other handy supplementary paperwork. The accessories feature could do with a bit of TLC as it feels like there is a lot of potential, but doesn't quite integrate with the rest of the ecosystem properly yet. I think the logo looks like a push chair!

### "Early adopter who's watched you grow "

May 19, 2023

5.0

Impeccable

Pros

There are so many ways in which we use the system. We have adapted multiple processes to fit Reftab. It has become one of the most important tools I use. We were there in the early days before the site became as feature rich as it is today and we are pleased to say we stuck around. We are proud to have our logo on your home page displaying that we use your product

Cons

It's hard to say what I don't like. Over the years I have seen the site develop and today I'm left with feeling that anything which isn't quite right will get there eventually. As long as you keep the attitude you have towards development, there are no cons

### "Top Notch Asset Tracking !!!"

June 10, 2022

4.0

Increased efficiency in tool tracking, maintenance, and deployment into the field. We typically inventory tools every 6 months. this makes the process a breeze.

Pros

Easy to use. I love that it is cloud based, so I can access it from anywhere. Extremely customizable, from categories to workflows to reports. Support team is highly responsive.

Cons

app functionality is a little behind the browser based version.

Reason for choosing Reftab

Better value. more easily integrated to my business. did not have to purchase proprietary hardware/scanners.
