SBE Asset Manager is asset inventory software delivered as a service: your teams open it in a browser, install nothing, and find every item with its location, status and history. SAM is sold as an annual subscription based on the number of registered assets, in three editions called Essential, Professional and Enterprise. Updates are included, and RFID scanning starts with the Professional edition. Use this page to match an edition to your asset base, then start with a demo.

Cloud asset management software: what each edition covers

Whatever the edition, this asset inventory software rests on the same foundation for your asset and equipment tracking, from the desk to the field:

  • Browser access: nothing to install on your machines, updates applied automatically, and sign-in from any connected device.
  • Asset record: number, category, manufacturer and model, location, title, quantity, price and condition. Custom attributes, such as a processor field for computers, extend the record (three at most in Essential).
  • Accounting depreciation: it is calculated automatically from the price entered on the record.
  • History and statuses: each asset keeps its history, and the Lost and Defective statuses set aside the equipment that needs action.
  • Assignment to resources: an item is tied to the person or resource using it.
  • Bulk consumables: items tracked by quantity are handled alongside individual assets.
  • Reports: standard inventory reports come with Essential, while advanced and custom reports start with Professional.
  • Import, export and API: you move data in and out yourself, and API access is open in all three editions.
  • Protected data: 256-bit encryption and a daily backup.
SAM, the global solution for your assets: operations, reporting, mobile app, cloud, SSO, IT and software asset management

Mobile asset scanning: field teams in sync with the office

Stocktaking rarely happens at a desk. The mobile app for SAM synchronises with the software and runs on smartphones and tablets, with an internet connection. It has a built-in barcode and QR code reader: a technician scans an item without a dedicated gun, then opens its record straight away.

On site, teams log equipment going in and out, update the inventory, manage assignments and schedule servicing. Notifications flag reservations, returns and upcoming maintenance.

Whatever is entered in the field shows up in real time in the asset inventory software, so whoever runs the asset base sees movements as they happen. The mobile app is included from the Essential edition.

Identifying assets: barcode, QR code or RFID

This asset inventory software supports several identification methods, and you can mix them by equipment family. Barcodes and QR codes suit items scanned one at a time: SAM creates the codes for all your assets, and a label can carry the name, category, location, service life or next maintenance date. Format, margins and font size are adjustable, and codes already in use can be carried over. Code 39, Code 128 and QR code are supported. Code generation starts with the Professional edition.

RFID works at another scale: tags are read without direct line of sight, using handheld or fixed readers, so an RFID inventory refreshes stock without scanning each item. RFID scanning is available in the Professional and Enterprise editions, which is why SAM sits among the catalogue's RFID software. To equip a team, the Zebra TC22 terminal pairs with the Zebra RFD40 UHF RFID gun, as in the Professional RFID pack. Heavy-duty asset tags are the labels supplied in the Essential and Professional packs.

Which technology to pick depends on volume and reading method, and the ten key points on RFID help settle it before you invest in hardware. Both methods coexist in the same asset inventory software, equipment family by equipment family.

SAM annual subscription: matching an edition to a need

The subscription rests on two parameters: the edition and the number of registered assets, in steps. The table sets each edition against a typical need, with its yearly price for 1,000 assets. The function-by-function detail sits in the SAM pricing grid.

Your situationEditionWhat justifies itYearly price excl. VAT for 1,000 assets
You keep an equipment inventory with its history, without loans or scanning.EssentialAsset and consumables management, accounting depreciation, history, basic report, mobile app.from €997
You count stock in the field, label your assets and lend equipment.ProfessionalBarcodes and QR codes, RFID scanning, physical stocktake, minimum and maximum stock, loans and reservations, electronic signature, SSO.from €1,787
You also run maintenance and connect SAM to your other tools.EnterpriseCyclic stocktake, work orders, supplier management, late penalties, integrations, no charge for software licences.from €2,497

The software module follows its own rule: in Essential, one licence counts as one billable asset; in Professional, five licences count as one billable asset; in Enterprise, licences are not charged. Because each edition counts them differently, software and licence management deserves a look before you decide. Turnkey setup, training and external hardware setup are ordered separately whatever the edition. More advantageous rates apply beyond one year of commitment. Every edition runs on the same online asset inventory software: only the available functions change.

Starting with asset inventory software: demo, trial and packs

Three routes lead to a start:

  • 30-minute demo: SAM presented by an expert, with no commitment, followed by an immediate budget estimate and a detailed quote within 48 hours. You can book it on the SAM website.
  • 15-day functional demo: the complete software in your team's hands.
  • Packs: a licence and hardware bundled together, detailed below.

Before you call, count your current assets: that number sets the subscription step, and the demo is there to check that asset inventory software as a service covers your processes.

SBE agents can handle setup and training on request. SAM is developed by Hector Asset Manager, and SBE Direct sells it and supports its rollout. If your need stops at a simple RFID inventory, ScanAsset RFID is a lighter alternative.

Using SAM Day to Day: From Label to Asset Record

A new asset arrives, a label is attached: the two now need to be linked. Here is, screen by screen, how the SAM mobile app registers a new asset, then lets you find and manage it directly in the field.

Step 1

SAM scan screen: QR code label read and flagged as unrecognized

Scan the Label

The central scan button opens the reader. Aim at the QR code or barcode: SAM reads the number and checks whether it matches an asset. A code not yet registered appears under "unrecognized".

Step 2

SAM Create menu: category, reference, asset, site

Create an Asset

From the home screen, the "Create" button offers category, reference, asset or site. Choose "Asset" to register the item carrying the label.

Step 3

SAM add asset form: category, reference and destination

Classify and Locate

Select the category and the model reference, then the destination: in stock, assigned to an employee or installed on a site. A scan button also lets you select the stock.

Step 4

Adding photos to an asset record in SAM

Add Photos

A main photo, supplemented if needed by other views and documents, makes every record recognisable at a glance. Photograph the asset with its label visible.

Step 5

SAM asset list with category, stock and asset number

Find the Asset

Once saved, the asset appears in the Inventory tab with its category, stock, title and asset number.

Step 6

SAM scan of a recognised label: asset found with its summary

Scan to Retrieve

On the next scan, the label is recognised: SAM displays "1 found" with the category, stock, title and asset number. No more searching through lists.

Step 7

SAM asset actions: edit, move, add quantity, consume

Act on an Asset

Select an asset to edit it, move it to another stock, an employee or a site, add a quantity or record a consumption.

Step 8

Editing an asset record and its asset number in SAM

Update the Record

Title, condition, notes and asset number remain editable. Label replaced? Scan the new one to update the number in a single step.

Frequently asked questions about the SAM subscription

Which asset inventory software edition should I pick: Essential, Professional or Enterprise?

Start from what you do with it. Essential is enough to keep an inventory with history and depreciation. Professional adds barcode and QR code generation, RFID scanning, physical stocktakes and equipment loans and reservations. Enterprise adds cyclic stocktakes, work orders and integrations. A 30-minute demo lets you confirm the choice before subscribing.

How is the SAM subscription price worked out?

The price depends on the edition and on the number of registered assets, in steps. It is paid yearly, with updates and dedicated support included. The entry point is €997 excl. VAT per year for 1,000 assets in the Essential edition. Rates become more advantageous beyond one year.

Is RFID scanning included in every edition?

No. RFID scanning is available in the Professional and Enterprise editions, not in Essential. Reading tags requires a handheld or fixed RFID reader. The Professional RFID pack already pairs an RFD40 gun and a TC22 terminal with the licence.

Does SAM have to be installed on our computers?

No. SAM is a cloud service: you use it in a browser, on any connected device, and updates are applied without any action on your side. The mobile app extends access to smartphones and tablets. For an IT estate, the Enterprise edition adds connections with tools such as Microsoft Endpoint Configuration Manager and Jamf, in the spirit of IT asset tracking.

Do software licences count towards the number of billed assets?

It depends on the edition. In Essential, one software licence counts as one billable asset. In Professional, five licences count as one billable asset. In Enterprise, licences carry no charge. An estate rich in licences therefore weighs very differently depending on the edition.

Can we try the asset inventory software before subscribing?

Yes. A 15-day functional demo is offered, and a 30-minute consultation with no commitment lets you put your questions to an expert. Booking is done from the demo page of the SAM website.

How is the data protected?

Data is stored encrypted, with 256-bit encryption. A backup is made every day. Because the software runs as a service, there is no database left on your own servers for you to back up.
