Asset Tiger, created by the team at MyAssetTag.com, is a popular cloud-based asset management tool that allows you to manage up to 250 assets for free. It supports unlimited users and gives access to reports about assets. 

However, AssetTiger isn’t suitable for complex asset management needs—such as larger organizations with thousands of assets or those requiring more detailed reporting and tracking features.

It lacks advanced features that IT managers in large organizations require, like comprehensive integration capabilities, advanced reporting, detailed analytics, and features like retrievals and disposal of assets.
