   Disappointed

   We installed the software and started to populate it. After a while we experienced login problems. For some mysterious reason, some users can only login to it from one computer but when they try it from a different computer using the same credentials then it fails. Documentation is poor - when we go to the Wiki, the FAQ pages are not available? The discussion page is also empty. We could not find a user manual. We are looking for other options.

   Exceptionally good considering it is completely free

   Running on Ubuntu 16.04LTS server. It works very well. We wrote some aditional php web-page functions to directly access the MYSQL database to implement a few additional functions. Because it is open source it is relatively easy to modify for specific extra functions. Fast FREE and not encumbered by proprietary stuff, adverts or forcing you to divulge company data to an online service. Easy to do backups and clone to other machines. A really useful tool. It is a good idea if the administrator has a basic competance in Linux and web/php admin. Overall very good.

• Suggestion for a software to collate all the stuff I own [Home Inventory?]

  For your use case it sounds that snipe-it might be the perfect fit. It can be self hosted, open source, has a login system, has a user system incase you let people borrow items, supports barcodes, supports putting an item out of service incase its broken, supports keeping track of serial numbers and much more.
