📝 Storing all possible information in an efficient manner
In Cheqroom, you can add as much information on an Item/Kit, a Contact, or a booking, as you wish. It also lets you specify "the field type" so you can store rich content in each field, and it allows you to track down relevant information in no time.

📊 Using your item and booking data to your advantage
After having used the tool for a while, our reporting and depreciation module will make most of the data you have added into the system. See which items have been used the most (and which ones have been collecting dust), what team member has been returning the gear on time, and what the current value is of your total inventory.

⏱ A few time-savers that can save the day
In a fast-paced environment, a few shortcuts can come in handy, such as making a quick Reservation or Check-out, or sending automated reminders to keep the team in check! And once you have your equipment labeled with QR codes or barcodes, our Mobile App can save you some crucial minutes as well.

🧾 Agreements and Checklist to get ahead of the game
In Cheqroom, we have several ready-to-use templates that you can attach to any booking or contact page. You can use them to keep your team members a bit more accountable when handling your company's expensive gear or to have an ATA Carnet or checklist ready when your equipment is being moved and shipped around a lot.

🌎 Keeping a better overview of your inventory with Locations
Locations are one of the main features of Cheqroom. They allow you to create separate Locations for each equipment room, warehouse or department, within your organization and assign Items to them. This means you can see, per Location, where all your inventory is stored and decide from which Location every user will be picking up their gear.
