The AssetBlox App from Indigo Mountain is designed specifically and solely for use with the AssetBlox Appliance. The AssetBlox App has been designed to allow customers to scan their Assets and update any field they have created for their Asset Types. For full functionality customers are able to purchase and install an AssetBlox Virtual Appliance, which will host, connect and enable locally the number of licensed devices procured for use. Once downloaded, the AssetBlox App on the initial login screen, will have a Demo Button available, which will connect to the Demo AssetBlox Appliance in the Cloud. For the purpose of testing the AssetBlox App we have made available some sample barcodes, which can be downloaded, printed and scanned. The sample barcodes are found here: https://indigomountain.co.uk/scanme These barcodes are working barcodes and will successfully retrieve Data from the Demo Asset Blox Appliance. To complete the demo you are then able to re-scan the Asset barcode to verify that the data has changed. Also, you can log onto the Demo Appliance at https://assetblox.indigomountain.co.uk/admin/ Username - assetblox@indigomountain.co.uk Password - assetblox This will give you user access the demo Appliance and can view your assets being created / updated.
