Why organizations are leaving Cheqroom for Hector?
No-surprise pricing
With Hector, the displayed price is the real price. Unlimited users, full features, and no pricing tiers forcing you to upgrade to access essentials. Cheqroom modules its features according to the chosen plan, which can create friction as your organization grows.
Limitless customization
Hector allows you to fully adapt the platform to your operational reality: custom fields, bespoke workflows, user roles, and automated alerts. Unlike Cheqroom, where customization options vary by subscription plan, everything is available from the start with Hector.
Simplified management of multiple sites and teams
Whether your assets are spread across several sites, departments, or construction sites, Hector offers a centralized, real-time view of all your equipment. Geolocation, multi-site, multi-language, and multi-currency management are included: features that are absent or limited in Cheqroom.
Support that truly accompanies you
From importing your data to training your teams, Hector actively supports you from day one. Our customers say it often: it’s the support that makes the difference.
