AssetTiger’s free plan limits teams to 5 custom fields and 100 email notifications per day. Paid plans remove these caps, but reviewers consistently note that reporting and customization options feel constrained—particularly for teams that need to filter, export, or analyze assets across complex criteria. The interface is functional but dated, and integrations with external platforms (Google Workspace, Slack, SSO providers) are not available.

Shelf provides flexible custom fields across all plans and a built-in [Reports area](/features/reports) with ten ready-to-run reports designed around the operational questions: Booking Compliance (on-time vs late), Top Booked Assets, Monthly Booking Trends, Overdue Items, Asset Inventory, Asset Activity Summary, Asset Utilization, Idle Assets, Asset Distribution, and Custody Snapshot. Each report supports timeframe and filter controls; every report exports to CSV and chart-based reports also export to PDF.
