Out in the morning, back by evening

Where's the laser? Is the angle grinder still OK? Any grinding discs left? Three questions, every working day.

  1. 1Luca · Fitter

    Load upFrom Pro

    Luca is off to a customer. Scan the case and the grinder, tap Service van 2: both are booked to the van.

  2. 2Urs · Workshop manager

    Away

    Urs looks for the laser. Without ringing round, he sees it: in the tool case, in Service van 2.

  3. 3Luca · Fitter

    Back in

    In the evening the van is back. Two scans, tap Stores: everything is back in its place.

  4. 4Urs · Workshop manager

    Overview

    Home time. Urs sees what's back, what's broken and what's running low.

The laser is back, the grinder reported, the discs on the list. One look is enough.

Sound familiar?

In the end, someone buys a second one.

Three vans, three fitters, one group chat, and nobody finds the core drill.

The note is gone, the drill is back in the van.

On Friday the drill had a note on it: broken. On Monday it's out on a job again.

"Have the ladders been inspected?"

Two are out on a job, one is in a van. The inspection starts with a search, and the record is somewhere on paper.

What Mango Inventory handles for you, day to day

01 · LabelingIn every plan

Every item gets a label

Collage: four items with QR labels and inventory numbers — a drill, a cable drum, a first-aid case and a tablet — next to them a hand scanning a label on a storage crate with a smartphone.
  • Stick the labels on — Pre-printed from us or straight from the app.
  • Just scan — Opens the item: who has it, where it is, since when.
  • For the whole team — Everyone scans with their own phone.

02 · OverviewIn every plan

Your entire inventory at a glance

1:1 from the app

  • How many? Where? Who has it? — It is all in one list, no walk-around, no phone calls.
  • Everyone sees the same thing — No more juggling three Excel versions.
  • The way you work — Your own categories, your own fields: The list speaks your language.

03 · Check-out & returnIn every plan

Who has what? Always visible.

1:1 from the app
  • Booking out — Scan, pick the fitter or the van, done.
  • Bringing back — One scan, one tap on Stores.
  • Your structure — You decide who and where things go: fitters, teams, vans, customer sites — and you see at a glance what is still out.

04 · Maintenance & inspectionFrom Premium

Maintenance plans that almost run themselves

1:1 from the app
  • Maintenance plans — make sure every item gets inspected.
  • Inspection intervals — remind you when a check is due.
  • Checklists — make sure the check is done properly.

05 · StocktakingFrom Pro

Stocktaking in hours, not days

1:1 from the app

Counting in the Mango Inventory app on the iPhone: the camera image at the top with a captured label, below it the active room with its open items and, per row, “Not found” and “Confirm”, and under that the rooms already finished.
  • Count in the app — Scan the QR label or tap it.
  • Count less, finish sooner — Moved recently? Worth under CHF 500€500£500$500? Leave it out!
  • The app walks you through stores, workshop and vans — and shows what is still open.

06 · Defect reports & ticketsFrom Pro

Work assigned. Responsibility clear.

1:1 from the app
  • All managed in one place — Defect reports, maintenance plans, restocking, stocktakes.
  • Assigned automatically — Every task goes to the person responsible, automatically.
  • Gear that works — No device sits broken for months.

07 · Excel importIn every plan

Your Excel list, imported in one afternoon

almost 1:1 from the app
  • Columns map themselves — You confirm the mapping instead of building it.
  • Every row is checked — Fix errors right in the import. No going back to Excel, no new export.
  • Rather hand it over? — On request we handle the migration free of charge — and help you get the labels set up.

And that’s not all

Custom fields

Battery system for drills, inspection date for ladders: your list shows what you need.

Item models

12 identical cordless drills, described once: each one still stands on its own in your list.

Containers

Case, cart, crate: contents follow the container — lend and move it as one.

Orders

An order instead of a phone call: “I need a drill” lands with you as an order.

Quantity items

Grinding discs, drill bit sets, safety glasses: counted, handed out, topped up in time.

Notifications

What matters by email or push, the rest waits in the app until you have time.

Export

Any view as Excel or CSV, any time: your data stays yours.

History

Who had what, when? Every handout and return is in the item’s history, with person and time.

Unlimited users

Unlimited users at no extra cost — from the apprentice to the boss.

See it on your own tools: one van, one case — then you will know whether it fits.

Every feature, with up to 50 of your own items. No credit card.

For owners and managers

Joinery, metalwork, electrical or plumbing — what counts at the end of the year:

Budget

Know what's in stores and in every van — stop buying duplicates. Replacements backed by stock, not guesswork.

Accountability

Every tool assigned to a fitter or a van — who had it last is in the history.

No lock-in

Your data stays yours: export to Excel/CSV anytime, in full. Even if you switch providers.

Predictable cost

Public pricing, unlimited users. Fitters and apprentices who scan and report cost nothing extra.

Frequently asked questions

What does it really cost?

Exactly what this page says: per 1,000 items or part thereof, unlimited users, no hidden modules. Example: 800 devices cost CHF 29€29£29$29 per month on the Essential plan. If your inventory grows past 1,000 items, the subscription adjusts automatically — you're notified by email first, and nothing is charged before your next invoice.

See pricing →
What counts as one item?

Every object you track individually — a drill, a projector, a chair. Anything you track as a quantity also counts as one item: 40 barriers are one item, not 40.

Can we try it for free — and what happens past 50 items?

Yes — every feature, with up to 50 of your own items, no credit card. Nothing gets lost, and nothing stops working: lending, stocktaking, editing, tickets — everything keeps running. Only new items beyond the 50 can't be added any more — that's the moment to upgrade: pick a plan, keep working, everything stays as it is.

Who is Mango Inventory not for?

Inventories below roughly 250 items. There, most teams keep track just fine with a spreadsheet — knowing who has what, what's missing and what's due only gets hard with more equipment. If scanning instead of searching is still worth CHF 29€29£29$29 a month to you, we'd be glad to have you. Above that, you're exactly who we built this for.

How much effort is the rollout, really?

One afternoon: import, labels, invite the team. Nobody needs training — anyone who can scan a QR code can check out items and report defects.

Docs: getting started →
Can we bring over our existing Excel list?

Yes — upload an Excel or CSV file, the AI maps the columns, you review and confirm. And every view exports back out completely, any time.

Docs: import & export →
Do we need scanner hardware — and is there an app?

No scanner hardware needed: a phone camera and the browser are enough, and you print QR labels yourself — or order them pre-printed from us. The app is available for iOS and Android.

Download on the App StoreGet it on Google Play
Docs: mobile app →
Can we see which tool is on which site or in which van?

Yes. You can assign an item to a site, a vehicle or the store room, just like to a person: whoever takes it there scans the QR code and books it to that place. The app then shows where it was last booked.

Can we schedule inspections and maintenance?

Yes: inspection and service intervals per item, with reminders and a record of what was done. If an inspection is overdue, a warning appears before anyone is handed the item. Maintenance is included in the Premium plan.

More on maintenance →
Where is our data stored?

On servers in Europe. All providers and locations are listed on the Trust & security page.

See Trust & security →
How do we get out again — and what happens to our data?

Every view exports completely as Excel/CSV, any time. You can cancel any time, effective at the end of the current billing month — in the app or by email. Whether you cancel or downgrade, everything stays stored, stays in your export and keeps working; features your plan no longer includes come back the moment it does. Nothing is deleted.

Docs: import & export →
How many users can work with it — and who may do what?

Everyone: users are unlimited on every plan, at no extra cost. Four roles cover permissions — from read-only viewer to owner — and responsibilities for tickets and orders are granted per person. Single sign-on and directory sync are available on the Premium plan.

What support do we get?

Support by email to kontakt@mangoinventory.com. You get a personal answer — no anonymous ticket system.
