## Reviews

### "Reftab - a solid 4 out of 5" — 4.0/5

> **Tim** | *12 November 2025* | Nonprofit Organization Management | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: I like Reftab because it just works. No bloat, no bull. It does exactly what I need it to do: keeps track of stuff without becoming another thing that needs managing.&#10;&#10;It’s clean, fast, and lets me know who’s got what, when it’s due back, and what condition it’s in - Reftab feels built for people who actually do things, not just manage them.
> 
> **Cons**: What bugs me about Reftab is that it still feels a bit rigid. It’s great for tracking assets, but the workflow side can get clunky. I can’t bend it as far as I want - no true automation, no bulk logic beyond imports, and integrations are limited unless I've not worked this out yet. &#10;&#10;The UI, while clean, can also feel dated. Some settings are buried three clicks deep, and editing lots of items at once is painful.
> 
> It really fits the way we work... volunteer crews, rotating teams, chaotic environments, lots of moving parts. It's a good fit, and it suits our team.

### "Dissecting Reftab" — 5.0/5

> **Jose** | *02 March 2026* | Transportation/Trucking/Railroad | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: The accessibility is phenomenal  drivers can really get there pre and post trips done without delay and accurately very easily.
> 
> **Cons**: The amount of information presented at any time it should be streamlined to user so they only see what they need to see and clear up confusion
> 
> Its an extremely useful tool and is very user friendly but needs to be streamlined for users as they see alot of non-essential information they do not need.

### "Great Software but has room for improvement." — 3.0/5

> **Brandon** | *02 October 2025* | Telecommunications | Recommendation rating: 6.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: I like that it has strong integration with Intune and Entra ID. I also like the automated processes for assigning assets to users based on Intune.
> 
> **Cons**: Lack of customization. For example, when we term an employee, it would be nice if Reftab could automatically assign their assets to a "returning to stock" status automatically. Furthermore, some of the built in templates and asset fields we don't use but we can't remove them. Its pricing model is also a bit expensive.
> 
> Overall, it's better than what we had before. Not sure if we'll be keeping it long-term as it's expensive and I think there is room for improvement.

### "Great system" — 4.0/5

> **Dominick** | *02 March 2026* | Education Management | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Functionality for asset and license management - stock auditing and checking in/out is noticeably easier than other asset management systems
> 
> **Cons**: The user portal doesn’t work well at all on mobile devices, and making reservations for multiple assets isn’t very streamlined
> 
> Largely positive from a technical point of view, some bugs and issues but always responded to quickly by the development team

-----

### "Reftab IT review" — 5.0/5

> **Gabriel** | *04 March 2026* | Food & Beverages | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: I liked that everything is very straight forward when adding assets or anything like a loanee. Also really liked the way things are named, and you are able to know what you are searching for just from looking at the tab names
> 
> **Cons**: It seems that some of the API pulls don't actually get all the data from the place connected, not sure why, but it means that there is some random people that I have end up adding.
> 
> Very enjoyable, specially since it's been a great way to track all of our IT assets in one place and not have to dig for info in different locations as we can add it all in there
