Quick Setup (< 1 hour)

You can use Shelf to track physical and digital equipment across your organization. The tool lets you assign assets to team members, create reservation bookings to prevent double-booking, and use QR codes to quickly access asset information. You can set up custom fields for different asset types, get GPS location tracking, and manage multiple workspaces for different departments. Teams use it to know who has what equipment, when it's available, and track maintenance history.
