About Maintainly is a refreshingly simple cloud-based CMMS built for maintenance teams who need to get things done — not spend hours learning complex software. Teams use Maintainly to create, assign, and manage both reactive and preventive work orders, with full support for photos, meter readings, downtime tracking, file uploads, and audit trails. Preventive maintenance schedules run automatically based on time or meter thresholds, so nothing gets missed. Assets are organized into flexible hierarchies, tracked geographically for movable equipment, and accessed instantly by scanning QR codes in the field. Every maintenance event is logged to a full history per asset. Technicians stay on top of tasks through native iOS and Android apps — supporting on-site work order updates, task comments, time logging, and push notifications. Requesters can submit work orders without needing a user account.		About Shelf is open-source asset and equipment management software for teams that lend, track, and audit physical gear. Tag any item with a QR code or barcode and scan it from any phone - no dedicated scanner needed - to check equipment in/out, assign custody, and see who has what, where it is, and when it's due back. Book equipment with conflict-free reservation calendars, run location-by-location audits, group items into kits, and keep a permanent activity log per asset. Native iOS and Android apps handle field scanning, audits, and custody; the web app is the source of truth for setup, reporting, and admin. AGPL-licensed - self-host with Docker or use the managed cloud. A free plan covers individuals; paid plans add bookings, team roles, and unlimited members. Popular with film/video and photo production, universities and schools (AV, labs, makerspaces), IT teams, events, and nonprofits.
