AV Equipment dashboard showing every item, its status and what it is worth
Why this exists

One Shure wireless system costs about $549. This costs $49 once.

Equipment tracking software is either free but needs a server you have to run, or easy but bills you every month forever. This is the third option: a spreadsheet you already know how to open, with the dashboard and reporting built properly on top.

What it does

Everything you would otherwise build yourself, already built

Sign equipment out, and know who has them

Assign a item to one of your volunteers, move it between ministries, send it for repair or retire it — every action stamped with a name and a date. When someone asks where it went, the activity log answers.

See what is due before it bites you

Service and warranty dates are tracked and bucketed — overdue, inside 30 days, 31–60, 61–90, or fine. The dashboard shows the count, and one click drills into exactly which equipment are affected.

What it is all worth, right now

Straight-line depreciation per item on a 3, 5, 7 or 10 year schedule. Book value sits next to original cost, and the report totals accumulated and annual figures — the numbers an accountant or a board asks for.

Questions

Before you buy

Is there a monthly fee?

No. One payment of $49 and it is yours, including every future update. No renewal, no per-seat pricing, no price rise later.

Why not just use a free template?

Free item templates are a list of columns. They do not check equipment out to a person, do not warn you before a service date, do not calculate what anything is worth now, and have no record of who had what. That is the difference you are paying for.

Do I need Microsoft Excel?

Any spreadsheet program that opens .xlsx works — Excel, LibreOffice Calc, or Google Sheets. The dashboard itself needs only a browser.

Does it need an internet connection?

No. The dashboard makes zero external requests — everything it needs is inside the file. It works with the wifi off, and on restricted networks.

Where is my data stored?

In the .xlsx file on your own machine. Nothing is uploaded and there is no account.

Can more than one person use it?

Yes, with a caveat. Put the file on a shared drive and everyone can open it, but only one person should edit at a time. Each person sets their own name, so the log still shows who did what.

Is this a subscription?

No. One payment, updates free for life. The files keep working regardless, because nothing depends on a server we run.

How is this different from your IT tracker?

Same engine, different vocabulary. If you manage computers rather than equipment, buy that one instead — you do not need both.

Not sure?

Ask me before you buy

There is no support desk here — it is one person, and I answer my own email. If you are not certain this fits what you manage, say what you are tracking and I will tell you straight, including if the answer is that it does not fit.
