Starhive vs competitors
The best asset management solution for storing any asset
Traditional asset management solutions dictate what you can and can't do with your assets.
Starhive lets you manage your assets your way.






The Starhive solution

Store any asset
Starhive comes with zero rules on what assets you can or cannot manage. Store anything from IT hardware, virtual assets, robots, air-con units, people, buildings, and more.

Unparalleled control
Sick of scrolling through asset fields you can't delete? Or having to apply custom fields to all asset types? Tack control of your asset data with Starhive and store exactly what you need and edit per asset type.

Monitor dependencies
Assets aren't isolated. They link to owners, contracts, locations, software, sub-modules, maintenance tickets, and more. Store whatever extra context you need in Starhive and link to your assets.
A smarter approach to asset management
Starhive vs Asset Panda

Asset Panda is known for its user-friendly interface and quick setup time, but it can be limiting in terms of what types of assets you can store. Starhive offers a more flexible approach, where teams can define custom asset attributes and relationships between assets in the exact way they need rather than being limited by asset groups.
Starhive vs Snipe-IT

Snipe-IT is an open-source asset management tool. It's a great choice for teams who just want to track some assets and who have the technical know-how to host their own instance to reduce their costs.
However, Snipe-IT can be a little limited for people who need to go beyond simple tracking and need asset tagging, dashboards, contract management etc. That's where Starhive can be of great help.
Starhive vs JSM Assets

Jira Service Management's Assets is a great choice for large teams already embedded in the Atlassian ecosystem. But Assets is only available to those on the JSM Premium plan and above, limiting it's usage for Free and Standard customers.
Did you know Starhive asset management integrates with all Jira Cloud plans?

Starhive vs AssetTiger

AssetTiger is an asset management platform very focused on asset tagging with their in-depth integration with MyAssetTag. Suitable for organisations with physical assets that need tracking. Organisations that have non-physical assets or something a little unique may find AssetTiger somewhat limited. While Starhive's tagging capability is more basic than AssetTiger's, it more than makes up for it in flexibility and storing virtual and intangible assets.
