Cheqroom vs Sonderplan

Cheqroom is an asset operations platform for teams that depend on equipment. It covers workflows from procurement through disposal, with digital check-in and check-out, signatures, QR scanning, audit trails and GPS tracking. Teams can reserve equipment or spaces, check availability, and apply access permissions and booking rules. Maintenance tools include repair scheduling, work orders and issue flags; broken items can be blocked from booking. Cheqroom is available on web, iOS, Android and API. Its mobile apps handle reservations, inventory checks, checkouts, returns and field audits, while deeper reporting, configuration and financial data remain on the web app. Named integrations include Workday, Oracle NetSuite, Salesforce, SAP, Jira, Slack, Microsoft Teams, Google Workspace and Zapier; webhooks and a REST API are also described. SSO and user sync support Okta, Microsoft Entra ID, Google Workspace, SAML 2.0, LDAP and Active Directory. Pricing starts at $184/mo (annual), billed per admin/month, with minimum administrator counts applying. There is no free plan, but a free trial is available. Support includes a 24/7 self-serve Help Center, email and live chat during 9 AM–5 PM EST business hours.
