Snipe IT VS Kimai

Snipe-IT for Asset Management

At work I use snipeIT to manage our asset inventory, it's fairly quick to spin up with docker and it's quite customisable https://snipeitapp.com/

Another great open source asset management system to check out is Snipe-IT. https://github.com/snipe/snipe-it

I have used it for years both self hosted and with them hosting and it's been a great low cost solution for asset management.

If you like the IT method of asset management, then Snipe-IT is what you want. If you want something more inventory-y and parts-y, then check out PartKeepr or Inventree.

We use SnipeIT

I very strongly disagree, use serial numbers if at all possible, set up Snipe-IT, and you'll never have to change labels again. As long as you are the one handling provisioning, repairs and such, or those who do is allowed access, you'll always know the location, status and ownership of everything in there.

https://github.com/kimai/kimai [for time etc]

Kimai is a pro-grade, web-based time tracker that can handle hundreds of users, generate reports, create invoices and more. This open-source tool includes a long list of useful advanced features like 2FA, customizable roles and permissions, multiple timezones and budgeting. Thanks to troubleshootmertr for the recommendation!

I 'm working with the opensource Kimai time tracking software, there is a table called kimai2_user_preferences that stores user preferences in a key/value pair. I'd ideally like to create four value/key pairs when a new row is added to the kimai2_users table in order to set default required values used by a plugin. I haven't put thought into the automation part of it, still trying to work out the SQL code to add the required values if they do not already exist.

You can use https://github.com/kevinpapst/kimai2 for time tracking (if creatively parent or child-id are represented as projects :), then you can book time against childcare activities you create)
