AssetFrog

AssetFrog is a cloud-based asset management system that tracks fixed assets and calculates depreciation for financial reports, forecasts, and budgets. Asset records can show location, assigned user, and current status, with custom fields configured by category. Staff can check out assets with due dates, notes, and return tracking, and users can attach invoices, contracts, and other files. In a mobile browser, barcode or QR scans can register, update, or check assets. An import wizard supports moving data from other systems and bulk registration of identical assets. AssetFrog is available as an installable progressive web app on Windows, Android, macOS, and iOS. The company describes itself as 100% Australian owned and operated, and says it uses 256-bit SSL encryption, Amazon AWS hosting, and encryption for stored documents.

The free plan supports up to 50 assets, one user, and three custom fields. AF100 costs A$16 a month when billed annually, for up to 100 assets, unlimited users, and 30 custom fields. Paid plans advertise unlimited users, with a soft limit of 500 before customers are asked to contact AssetFrog.

AssetFrog brings asset records, depreciation calculations, checkouts, attachments, and mobile scanning together in a cloud service. The free plan has limits on assets, users, and custom fields; paid plans are billed annually.

AssetFrog may suit organizations that need to track fixed assets, manage checkouts, and calculate depreciation. Its free plan is limited to 50 assets and one user, while the service is cloud-only.

Overview

AssetFrog is a cloud asset register for organisations managing depreciable equipment and other fixed assets. It is best suited to teams that need accounting-oriented depreciation alongside day-to-day custody records. Its combination of asset tracking, mobile scanning and staff checkouts is practical, but asset-count caps determine which plan will work.

Key features

Records, depreciation and workflows

Each record can bring together an asset’s location, assigned user and status, while depreciation calculations support financial reports, forecasts and budgets, including tax depreciation. That makes AssetFrog more relevant to organisations that need accounting schedules than to buyers seeking only a general inventory list.

Category-specific custom fields let teams capture different details for different asset types. Staff checkouts can include due dates and notes, with return tracking; attached invoices, contracts and other files keep supporting documents with the asset record. The import wizard supports migration from another system and bulk registration of identical assets, useful when setting up an existing register or entering repeated items.

Mobile access and security

Users can scan barcodes or QR codes in a mobile browser to register, update or check assets. AssetFrog can also be installed as a progressive web app on Windows, Android, macOS and iOS. It is cloud-only, with no on-premises edition, so it is not a fit for organisations that require local deployment. AssetFrog says it uses 256-bit SSL encryption, Amazon AWS hosting and encryption for stored documents. Customers can submit support tickets through its help desk.

Pricing

The free plan costs nothing and allows up to 50 assets, one user and three custom fields. It gives a small organisation room to try the core register, but the single-user cap makes it restrictive for shared workflows.

Paid plans are billed annually, with prices shown per month. AF100 costs A$16 a month and covers up to 100 assets, unlimited users and 30 custom fields. It is the lowest-cost paid tier, but its asset ceiling is modest. AF250 costs A$35 a month for up to 250 assets; AF500 costs A$54 a month for up to 500; AF1000 costs A$87 a month for up to 1,000; AF1500 costs A$120 a month for up to 1,500; AF2000 costs A$153 a month for up to 2,000; AF2500 costs A$186 a month for up to 2,500; AF3000 costs A$219 a month for up to 3,000; and AF4000 costs A$268 a month for up to 4,000. Each paid plan includes unlimited users and 30 custom fields, so the main difference across these tiers is asset capacity.

Paid plans advertise unlimited users, with a soft limit of 500 users before contacting AssetFrog. Buyers should choose by the size of their register rather than seat count, and consider whether the next asset tier will be needed as the inventory grows.

Platforms

AssetFrog is available on Android, iOS, macOS, the web and Windows. Its progressive web app can be installed on Windows, Android, macOS and iOS devices.

Who it's for

AssetFrog suits organisations that need a shared fixed-asset register, depreciation schedules and a way to assign, scan and document equipment. The free plan can suit a single user managing a small collection; paid tiers make more sense when colleagues need access or the register exceeds 50 assets. It is a poor match for teams that need on-premises software or have outgrown the available asset caps.

Pros and cons

• Accounting-oriented depreciation: calculations cover reports, forecasts, budgets and tax depreciation, beyond basic location tracking.
• Useful custody workflow: staff assignments include due dates, notes and return tracking, with attached documents kept on asset records.
• Mobile scanning: barcode and QR scanning can register, update or check assets through a mobile browser.
• Strict free-plan limits: 50 assets, one user and three custom fields constrain shared use and richer records.
• Cloud-only deployment: there is no on-premises version for organisations that require local hosting.

Alternatives

Fixed Asset Register is worth considering for buyers comparing a paid product that also has a free plan and free trial; it runs on Android, web and Windows.

AssetCenter offers a no-time-limit free plan for 25 available or deployed assets, with no reports. Choose it if that smaller allowance and its listed platforms—Android, API, iOS and web—better suit your needs.

AssetComply has a free plan for up to 100 assets and runs on Android and web, making it an option to compare if that cap fits your register.

Kleos is a paid option with no free plan and Android and iOS platforms; its Core plan is priced per user and includes 15 GB of cloud storage.

MeltX FAM is another paid option, available on Android and web.

MRI Eagle CRM uses personalised packages for agencies of different sizes, so it may suit buyers seeking a tailored package rather than a set asset-count tier.

AssetsTrak is a paid alternative available on web, iOS and Android.

Sage Fixed Assets is a paid alternative available on Android, web and Windows.

Verdict

AssetFrog is a strong fit for organisations that want fixed-asset records, accounting-oriented depreciation and practical checkout and scanning workflows in one cloud service. Its clearest limitation is scale by asset count: the free plan is tightly capped, and paid tiers require annual billing. Choose it when those workflows matter and a listed tier matches the register; look elsewhere if on-premises deployment or more room to grow is essential.
