Why it matters

When a stock-take demands special tools

MagikINFO offers comprehensive IT asset management, with an overview at any moment of who has been assigned which asset. To keep that overview as current as possible, you can run what's known as an online stock-take, having users confirm their current list of assigned assets themselves.

All a user needs is a web browser, plus the email that lets them know a confirmation request is waiting. Because the stock-take runs as a web app, there's no installation, no device management, and no worrying about updates — open the link, log in, and confirm (or flag) your assigned assets.

“The best stock-take tool is the one you never have to install.”

Our approach

A stock-take that runs anywhere

MagikINFO's online stock-take is web-based — open it in a browser on a computer, tablet or phone. There's nothing to install, nothing to maintain. Log in and start counting assets straight against the central inventory.

Tag assets with barcodes and scan them with a scanner or a phone's camera, right in the browser. The system checks the match against the inventory instantly and flags anything that's missing or turned up somewhere it shouldn't be.

Because the stock-take works against the same records as the asset audit, results feed straight back in — it isn't a separate silo, but a way of keeping your records in line with reality.

What the solution covers

  • Nothing to install

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Do we really not have to install anything?

Exactly right. The stock-take runs as a web app in the browser — on a phone, tablet or computer.

Do we need a special scanner?

No need. You can use a phone's camera as a scanner right in the browser; a regular barcode scanner works too, of course.

Can several people do this at the same time?

Yes. Several users can run the stock-take at once on different devices, with all the data flowing into a single inventory.

How are missing assets handled?

As you count, the system flags missing and relocated items and produces a stock-take report.

Does this tie into asset management?

Yes, the stock-take works directly against the central inventory, so the data stays current afterwards.
