SimpleAMS vs Jira Assets
A dedicated Jira Assets alternative - real ITAM without a Jira Service Management licence.
Assets in Jira Service Management is handy if you already live in Jira, but it is a feature of JSM (largely Premium) rather than a dedicated asset manager - and it leans on you to model everything yourself. SimpleAMS is purpose-built ITAM with QR labels, license seats and offboarding baked in, and it still integrates with Jira for tickets - without paying for JSM to track your laptops.

| Out-of-the-box asset workflows | Yes | You model it yourself |
| QR labels + phone scan | Yes | Limited |
| License / seat tracking | Yes | DIY schema |
| Jira integration | Yes, two-way | Native |
| Starting price | EUR 29/mo flat | JSM Premium pricing |
Where Jira Assets shines
Native to Jira/JSM - assets sit next to tickets and can drive service workflows for teams already standardised on Atlassian.
Where SimpleAMS wins
A real asset manager, not a JSM add-on: ready-made asset/license/offboarding workflows, QR scan, MDM sync and an AI assistant - with a two-way Jira integration so tickets still link to assets.

Import by CSV or Snipe-IT export, connect the Jira integration and your MDM - live the same day, no JSM Premium required.
