Digital device management for schools

Manage technical devices digitally in one place and keep track of locations, responsibilities and availability at all times. No more confusing lists, Excel files and paper chaos! With our device management system, schools can manage their technical devices easily, digitally and centrally in one place. Keep track of tablets, laptops, projectors, smartboards, printers, cameras and other school devices at all times - across all locations and in real time. From assigning devices to teachers, classes or departments to planning and documenting maintenance, inspections and repairs, our digital device management supports you in all day-to-day school tasks. This reduces manual administration work, prevents equipment losses and ensures transparent and efficient management of your technical equipment. With Inventory ONE, you can organize your devices smarter, save valuable time and create efficient processes for the entire school.

What you record in Inventory ONE

Tablets & Laptops
Each device with serial number, date of purchase, warranty status, protective cover and current user - student or teacher.
AV & presentation technology
Projectors, interactive whiteboards, loudspeakers and cameras with maintenance history and location assignment.
Gymnastics equipment & sports equipment
Parallel bars, boxes, horizontal bars, mats and large equipment with regular inspection obligation according to DGUV and condition documentation.
Technical room & laboratory equipment
Microscopes, measuring instruments, chemical equipment and tools in work lessons with test dates and issue history.
Everything in view.

So you know where every device is

Fully document output to students & teachers

Each device issue is recorded with name, class and return date. At the end of the school year, outstanding returns appear automatically in the dashboard - sorted by class and teacher.

Document damage during the return check

When you return the equipment, you record its condition, including a photo. Any deviations from the issue condition are immediately visible and documented - as proof in the event of claims for damages against students or parents.

Automatically track gymnastics equipment tests

Gymnastics equipment is subject to regular inspection. Inventory ONE automatically reminds the responsible teacher or janitor before each due date - before equipment is used without a valid inspection.

Guarantees & purchase data under control

Which tablet still has a warranty? When does the manufacturer's warranty for the whiteboards expire? Inventory ONE displays expiring warranties in good time - before costly repairs are paid for outside the warranty period.

With Inventory ONE, you can see at any time where which devices are located, who is currently using what, who has reserved what and when, or whether maintenance or inspection dates are due for certain devices. You can also view your stock at all times.

Inventory ONE also gives you a very good overview of your consumables, such as copy paper, pens, etc., at all times. When the specified quantity of a material is reached, you are automatically reminded via the application and by e-mail of what needs to be reordered.

To ensure that your appliances are always in good working order, appointments can be created so that you don't miss any maintenance or prescribed checks. You will be automatically reminded of the appointment in the app and by email if you wish.

With Inventory ONE, every authorized person has access to information about the devices. In addition to the overview, reservations and appointments, you can also upload information (such as user manuals) for a device, which can be accessed anytime and anywhere.

Inventory ONE can process scanned QR codes. Although these are not absolutely necessary, they save you a lot of time if you want to enter new devices or retrieve data on existing inventory. Inventory ONE offers QR codes that are ideal for this at a reasonable price (More info). But Inventory ONE can also process the existing barcodes on your devices.

Assignments in Inventory ONE are very flexible. Devices can be assigned not only to colleagues and employees, but also to external persons, projects, locations and rooms. You can also flexibly set the access rights in Inventory ONE. Employees can independently pass on and exchange equipment among themselves and document this in a verifiable manner. For example, if you assign a device to an employee, this action is actively confirmed by the employee concerned. The same happens in reverse when the equipment is returned.

When equipment is issued or loaned out, you can quickly find each individual piece of equipment using our detailed search function. You can also specify whether employees can search the entire equipment or only for individual devices assigned to them.

To organize your equipment in the best possible way, you need the option of reserving individual devices directly in the system. This is exactly what Inventory ONE makes very easy to do. This practical function will help you to plan the use and availability of equipment well. This avoids annoyance among colleagues and nobody is unpleasantly surprised if, for example, a piece of equipment that is urgently needed is not available.

Should certain devices ever cause problems or become damaged, teachers and staff can record this directly in the app. In their overview, those responsible can always see whether a new problem has been reported and can therefore react in good time. This prevents the problem from being remembered until someone already needs the device.

With Inventory ONE, you can see the "CV" of all devices. How long has it been at the school, who has used it and for how long, and what was its overall utilization? When was it broken, when was it repaired and when was it serviced? This information is not only helpful as proof, but also when planning the purchase of new equipment. Our software makes the complete documentation of your equipment very easy.

For the initial equipment of new employees or for recurring projects, Inventory ONE supports you in issuing the required equipment. In this case, lists can be defined which equipment is issued as standard. This saves you a lot of time with recurring tasks.

Have you already recorded your devices in a large Excel list or have you been using other device management software? In this case, we will be happy to help you move to Inventory ONE. With our data import, the switch is usually straightforward. And if the existing data is a little more complex, we will be happy to help you with the import.

Inventory ONE was developed to make the day-to-day work of schools much easier. It may make sense to integrate the application into your IT environment. If you need interfaces for this, please contact us.

Inventory ONE is currently available in German, English, French and Italian. Other languages will follow. If you urgently need another language, please let us know. Our experts will try to help as quickly as possible.

From the field.

Practical example: iPad class without a return log - until the end of the school year

A secondary school with a 1:1 iPad program for two year groups had a well-known problem at the end of the school year: 53 of the 60 iPads issued were returned. Which ones were missing, who had them and in what condition they had been issued could no longer be reconstructed from the paper issue list. After the introduction of Inventory ONE, each iPad is assigned to the student via QR code when it is issued - with a photo of its original condition. At the end of the school year, the dashboard immediately shows which devices have not yet been returned. The last round of returns took place without any unresolved differences.
