Inventory/Asset Management Software

Ok, I'm looking for a fairly simple piece of software with the following features:

- Needs to be able to manage a small inventory of IT equipment (booking in, booking out, recording details about items, reporting, etc);
- Needs to be capable of allocating a bar code/unique serial number to each item and then printing out small stickers with bar codes on them which can then be attached to the assets;
- Needs to be compatible with a barcode printer for the above;
- Needs to be compatible with a half decent barcode reader for reading the stickers printed above;
- Must run on Windows ideally;
- Must maintain its own user base, preferably with differing levels of user;
- A web based interface would be nice, but not essential;
- Cost not necessarily an issue.

If I think of anything else I'll add it in here

Any thoughts?

Anybody using something similar at work that they'd recommend? If so, what are the pros/cons of the solution you're using?

Thanks guys

Re: Inventory/Asset Management Software

I know of a piece of software - not sure if it has your barcode requirements though...

Re: Inventory/Asset Management Software

Thanks Lee, doesn't look like it manages barcodes.
