What module do people recommend using for managing a fleet of leased equipment? Looked in SuiteApps but did not get the warm & fuzzies about it. Our business manufactures non-invasive medical devices that we send out.

If you have to track the locations of each one, that's the real nightmare. Checking in/out is pretty easy. Did something sort of similar way back when with a disaster recovery company (they had equipment and such leased to people and assigned to job sites). They brought in some developers and built something custom to them. If you don't have to manage job sites/pop-up warehouse locations, you could almost build it yourself without any scripting at all.

Yes, we want to know at any time who is holding them so that we can properly service them. I think we are going to use NetGain and possibly their NetLease product to cost this, as we need to properly depreciate fixed assets while also tracking who is holding those fixed assets on our behalf. I don't believe that it would be proper to track those assets in inventory for their entire time, but I would like to see if people believe differently on this. Separately we are also thinking about SFDC to use as a CRM. Not sure if any has opinions on how both systems should interface for purposes of asset tracking of mostly leased (and some sold but under service contract) units.
