Inventory Management with Jira (opens in new tab)

There is an enormous amount of vendor lock-in present in most solutions out there. Through hardware only compatible with one system, hardware that is claimed to be only compatible with one system (you won't be believed that a barcode reader will work with another system), and hardware that is simply outdated. The hardware is the most expensive part to change. The current software may or may not make migration of data easy.

The software needs to be able to mold itself to many different business processes/workflows. The business processes may be inefficient or irrelevant, but if you want approval from management you need to say you can do X,Y,Z. Also it should interact with every system they have in place.

Management/owner buy-in is difficult. Just convincing lower level employees that something is great is not enough if their boss points out something doesn't have the word "cloud" 1000 times in their marketing literature (I've experienced this).

The space tends to be dominated with solutions that are provided by combination software/consulting companies. Charge little for the software, and a lot for actual implementation by the hour. Or companies that rely on affiliates/resellers and enterprise sales reps who work for commission.

Or how infrequent necessary technical competence is simply not present at many companies. When present, sometimes it's suffocated by management, other times they're too busy with other fires and fear a new project on their plate.

I could go on.

It is self-hosted or we can host it for our customers(for web based solution). We are also working on JIRA cloud integration.

I am obviously biased here, but I think with Device42 you get auto-discovery and still same workflow with JIRA.

If you are having problems with your device tracking now, I would recommend it if that's the only thing you use it for assuming you don't have downstream systems that need data in some specific format JIRA can't be bent to.
