You probably want some sort of hosted asset management solution. A cloud based 
CMDB with the ability to link tickets to the CIs would work too.

Subject: [NTSysADM] OT: Issue/Hardware/Inventory Tracking

Finally got myself a long-term side gig!  Received lots of good advice from you 
guys that helped.

Been at it for a few months.
The company is having a terrible time tracking their non-pc hardware 
nationwide, and I'd like to set them up on a solution that would alleviate 
that.  (Which is above and beyond my scope of just managing the hardware).  But 
they really need it.

There has to be some sort of Inventory or HD software than can help.  I'm not 
really looking for a ticketing solution, although I could see how a ticketing 
solution might also have what I am looking for...

In a nutshell:
They have about 50 pieces of hardware.
About 20 franchise locations.
Hardware breaks, it gets shipped to me to fix, and then shipped somewhere (Not 
always the same location).

What needs tracking:
Issue tracking/history
Location history, Current location

I've been doing this in a shared Google Docs spreadsheet, but it's not cutting 
it.  In this day in age, I know there has to be a cloud solution that offers 
this perfectly.

Any ideas welcome.  Using your recommendations in addition to my own 
searching...

Thanks,
Sam
