Cloud solution

Cloud asset management software, accessible anywhere

Managing your assets in Excel or with locally installed software means giving up shared, remote, multi-device access, and ending up with inventory discrepancies and complicated tracking. Hector’s cloud solution lets you keep track of your assets wherever you are, with no installation and no server to manage. The infrastructure is already in place, robust and secure: your whole team uses the same tool from a computer or a mobile device. And that’s one less application to manage in your IT environment.

The Cloud solution

What is cloud asset management software?

Cloud (or SaaS) asset management software is hosted online by the vendor: you access it from a web browser or a mobile app, with nothing to install or maintain on your own servers. Your data is centralized, synced in real time and available to the whole team, wherever they are.

 

With Hector, the vendor handles hosting, security, backups and updates. You have no data center to administer and no download to manage: you log in and you work.

Why choose a cloud solution?

Real-time access, everywhere

Reach your up-to-date data anytime and anywhere, from a computer or a mobile. The whole team works on the same tool at the same time, with no manual syncing.

 

Zero installation, zero IT maintenance

Many software tools require in-house skills to keep the infrastructure running. Hector frees you from that: we keep the solution running while you focus on your real priorities. No server to set up, no download to deploy.

 

Secure, redundant hosting

Your data is protected by the cloud’s security mechanisms, with redundancy that keeps it available around the clock, even if a component fails. You lose nothing.

 

Barcode scanning right on mobile

No more external scanner: the mobile app reads barcodes, QR codes and RFID tags. On a jobsite, at the office or in the warehouse, a phone or tablet is all you need to track your assets and save time.

 

Scalability and integrations

Whether you are a small operation or a large organization running an ERP, Hector connects to your tools through its native integrations and its API.

Teamwork, made simple
Several team members work on the same software at once, with data that stays consistent, no more file versions that contradict each other.

A barcode reader right in your pocket

With the mobile app, your phone or tablet becomes the scanner. Barcodes, QR codes, RFID tags: everything is handled from the app, with no extra hardware. Wherever you are, you track your assets precisely and save considerable time.

Data redundancy, what exactly is it?

Redundancy means duplicating systems to keep your data available at all times. In practice: even if a component fails, the software stays functional and you lose nothing. Hector’s cloud hosting applies several redundancy points within the data center to keep your hosted assets safe, in all circumstances.

 

In short, here is what the cloud solution gives you:

Hector connects to all your tools

Through its API, Hector links to the tools you already use: ERP, accounting software, point-of-sale systems, SSO, and many more through our native integrations. You keep all your processes in sync with your organization’s needs.

Cloud or installed software: which to choose?

Locally installed software means a server, a team to maintain it and access limited to the internal network. The cloud removes these constraints: access everywhere, maintenance handled by the vendor, data backed up and redundant.
