ActivMan review
A detailed Windows system for valuation, depreciation, inventory, and asset records.
Reviewed by iTechGuides Editors · Editorial team · Updated Oct 2026
ActivMan is fixed asset management software for businesses, accounting firms, schools, housing corporations, and other organizations. It maintains protected asset records alongside historical data, supporting documents, locations, disposals, revaluations, forecasts, and depreciation information. Its focus is control over the full asset record, particularly where organizations need several valuation perspectives rather than a single tax or accounting value.
Its strongest functional area is valuation and planning. ActivMan supports fiscal, commercial, economic, insured, and replacement values, with depreciation calculations by value type and date. Investment plans can be tracked from budget through actual investment, while asset history and location tracking provide additional context. Barcode-based physical inventory, custom reports, journal-entry exports, and imports of asset administrations and financial transactions extend the system beyond a basic register. Exact integration is useful for organizations already working with that financial software.
ActivMan is delivered as standalone Windows software with on-premise deployment and multi-entity support. That structure suits organizations that want local control over fixed asset records, but it is less suitable for teams seeking browser-based access across varied platforms. Some capabilities, including maintenance planning, user security, audit logging, imports, and report generation, are provided through optional modules or functions, so organizations should match the edition and module setup to their governance and operational needs. ActivMan should appeal to businesses and accountants that need detailed valuation control, depreciation, inventory, and Exact connectivity; organizations wanting a cloud-first or broadly integrated platform should consider alternatives.
