Sound familiar?

These are the conversations EquipTrail was built to end.

πŸ”§

"Where's the 110mm angle grinder? I gave it to someone at Site B last week and now nobody knows where it is."

Site Manager

πŸ“‹

"The foreman borrowed the generator three jobs ago. We can't account for half our small plant."

Operations Manager

πŸ“±

"We track tools on a WhatsApp group and a spreadsheet nobody keeps updated. It's a mess."

Warehouse Manager

πŸ“„

"When something goes missing, nobody can tell me who had it last. We can't even run an insurance claim."

Plant Manager

Built for construction teams

Everything you need to hold your team accountable

From a single hammer to a fleet of generators β€” track it all with one tool your site managers will actually use.

Know who has every item

Allocate equipment to a crew member or site. When you need to find the angle grinder, you know exactly where to look β€” no guessing, no WhatsApp chains.

Full handover history β€” permanently

Every allocation, return, and transfer is logged with date, person, and notes. Print proof of who had what for insurance, disputes, or audits.

Multi-site visibility in one screen

One head office. Ten construction sites. A hundred crew members. See stock levels across every location from a single dashboard.

Serialized tools and bulk stock

Track individual items by serial number (drills, compactors, laser levels), AND bulk consumables by quantity (ratchet straps, safety vests, nails). Switch modes per item type.

Stock take in seconds

Pick a site, walk through β€” mark each item as on hand, damaged, or lost. EquipTrail creates the adjustments and updates the audit trail automatically.

Reports your finance team needs

8 reports built in: equipment per person, stock by site, damaged items, full audit logs. Export to PDF or Excel for management reviews or insurance.

Import your existing list in minutes

Download our XLSX template, fill in your current equipment list, upload. Categories and types are created automatically β€” you don't start from zero.

PayFast billing β€” no forex headaches

South African payments, processed locally. Monthly debit order via PayFast. No international card fees, no USD pricing, no surprises.

Your data. Completely isolated.

Strict company-level isolation at every level. No chance your crew list, equipment records, or movement history is ever visible to another company.

Frequently asked

Questions, answered

Do I need a credit card to start the trial?

No. Sign up with just your email and you get full access for 14 days. We'll only ask for payment details if you decide to keep using EquipTrail after that.

How is EquipTrail different from using an Excel spreadsheet?

Excel requires someone to manually update a file β€” and when that doesn't happen, your data is worthless. EquipTrail is updated at the point of handover: when a crew member receives equipment, the system is updated right then. Everyone with access sees real-time data. There's also a full audit trail you can't replicate in a spreadsheet. See our full comparison at /vs-excel.

My team isn't very tech-savvy. Will they be able to use it?

EquipTrail is designed for construction teams, not software teams. The allocation form has three fields: item, person, site. That's it. Most site managers are comfortable in under 15 minutes. If you're ever stuck, email us β€” we respond fast.

What's the difference between a 'user' and a 'person'?

A 'user' is anyone who signs into EquipTrail β€” typically your admin and a few site supervisors who hand out equipment. A 'person' is anyone who can receive equipment β€” crew, contractors, operators. People are unlimited on every plan. Only login users count toward your plan limit.

Can I import my existing equipment list from Excel?

Yes. Download our XLSX template, fill in your equipment list, and upload. Categories and equipment types are created automatically, so a single upload can bring in your whole register.

What happens after my trial ends?

Your account stays intact β€” you just can't add new data or run reports until you subscribe. Your existing data is never deleted. Subscribe at any time to pick up where you left off.

How do payments work?

We use PayFast β€” South Africa's leading payment provider β€” for monthly debit orders. No forex, no international card fees, no USD pricing. Everything is in Rands.

Can I cancel anytime?

Yes. Cancel from your billing page and you won't be charged again. You keep access until the end of the period you've paid for. All your data is always exportable to Excel or PDF.
