Hofy's new asset tracker supports our ability to service your equipment needs from procurement to management and clearance on a global scale.
Asset tracking provides complete visibility of your global estate.
[ACCORDION] Total visibility
Hofy's platform will automatically include information on Hofy-owned equipment but now, you can add your company-owned assets and view all your equipment in one platform.
- Centralize all asset information and track the entire lifecycle of every asset on one platform.
- Track all relevant equipment characteristics, as well as finance and compliance information.
- Track the entire lifecycle journey of every asset.
- Know where every asset is and which assets are available for use at all times.
- Use the Device Refresh feature to automatically get new devices for team members at the end of a device’s life cycle, ensuring they have the latest devices to maximize productivity.
- Track devices that are no longer in circulation as part of your organization's fleet in the Archived tab.
[ACCORDION] Always up-to-date
Hofy automatically updates the status of your equipment, for real-time visibility of location and lifecycle management.

[ACCORDION] The Hofy Agent
Forget about writing out all the details of your assets yourself which can quickly change and become out of date.
With the help of the Hofy Agent, you can obtain all clear, complete and up to date information about your company assets simply by using Hofy's software in seconds. Simply download it to try it on your own account first. Then, it can be deployed via MDM to your entire workforce, ensuring you have all the data you need about your company laptops. That way, your team will have the single source of truth into the accurate details, the health and security of your assets with real time condition report.
[ACCORDION] Transfer/Reassign
By logging all in-person transfers of your assets, it helps to keep your asset register up-to-date and accurate. You can reassign assets between your users, without Hofy's logistical support or with the help of Hofy logistics for $70 or equivalent based on fx rates within the same customs regions.
[ACCORDION] Store
Hofy also provides a Store and Reuse service for customer-owned devices. You may now store your devices with Hofy at one of our warehouse or use our logistics to store your equipment in your own storage location. Once an asset goes into storage, the asset location will change from 'with user' to 'in storage' on the platform. To manage or create your own storage locations, please head to your name in the bottom left-hand side corner of the platform, select 'Settings' and then 'Locations.'
[ACCORDION] Coming soon
Coming soon to support the equipment you already have: Global Hardware Support, Loaner Laptop Program, and more.
You'll also be able to get a running history of everything that’s happened to a device over time, from procurement through to disposal. This will be automatic if using Hofy’s lifecycle services to manage your devices.
