MS Access → AssetOS

Migrate your Microsoft Access asset database to AssetOS.

That Access database has run your assets for years — but it lives on one PC, breaks when the person who built it leaves, and has no mobile or audit trail. We move it into AssetOS for you, free with any annual plan.

  • Free with any annual plan
  • We map and move every field for you
  • Review your migrated data in staging before go-live

No commitment. We scope it first, then confirm what's covered.

From this, to this.

We move your data out of Microsoft Access and into a clean, mobile, audit-ready system — and we do the moving.

Why teams move off Microsoft Access

Microsoft Access works for some teams. Here’s what usually pushes people to switch.

!

Single point of failure

Access databases usually live on one machine or a shared drive, maintained by one person. When they leave or the file corrupts, the whole system is at risk.

!

No real multi-user access

Access struggles with concurrent users and locks up under load. Field teams can’t update records from their phones, and remote access is painful.

!

No audit trail or compliance tracking

There’s no built-in record of who changed what, no deadline reminders, and no compliance reporting — a problem the moment an auditor asks.

!

Brittle and unsupported

Custom forms and macros break with Office updates, and almost nobody is left who can safely modify the schema.

How the migration works

Four steps. You do the first one; we do the rest.

1

Send us your export

Hand us a CSV, a database backup, an API key, or a read-only login — whatever you have. No clean-up required on your end.

2

We map every field

Assets, work orders, PM schedules, history, attachments, users and roles — each mapped into AssetOS. We dedupe and tidy as we go.

3

You review a staging workspace

Before anything goes live, you get a private workspace loaded with your data. Nothing is final until you sign off on it.

4

Go live on an annual plan

When you’re happy, we flip it live. The migration is included free with any annual plan. Keep your old system running in parallel as long as you like.

What we move

Everything you’ve built up in Microsoft Access comes with you — not just the asset list.

Asset registers and asset hierarchies
Open and historical work orders
Preventive maintenance schedules
Attachments, photos, manuals and certificates
Custom fields and categories
Users, teams and role-based permissions
Locations, sites and asset groupings
Data clean-up and de-duplication
Specific to Microsoft Access
  • Tables exported from your .accdb / .mdb file
  • Relationships between assets, work orders and locations preserved
  • Lookup tables mapped to AssetOS categories and custom fields
  • Historical maintenance records brought across as work-order history
  • Linked attachments and document references where available

We’ve done this before

We’ve migrated maintenance and asset data out of these systems and into AssetOS. Yours is unlikely to surprise us.

No bridges burned

Switching feels risky. We take the risk off the table.

Review before go-live

You see your data in a staging workspace and sign off before anything becomes your live system.

Run in parallel

Keep your old system running alongside AssetOS for as long as you need. No hard cut-over.

Never locked in

One-click export, any time. We moved you in; we’ll never hold your data hostage to keep you.

Frequently asked questions

How do you get data out of an Access database?

Send us the .accdb / .mdb file or table exports (CSV/Excel). We inspect the schema, map the tables and relationships into AssetOS, and rebuild the structure so your data stays connected — not just dumped into flat lists.

My Access database is a mess of linked tables. Is that a problem?

No — that’s normal for databases that have grown over years. Untangling relationships, removing duplicates and mapping lookup tables is part of the migration. You don’t need to clean it up first.

Will the maintenance history survive?

Yes. Historical maintenance records are mapped to AssetOS work-order history so you keep the full record against each asset, not just a current snapshot.

What does it cost?

The migration is free with any annual AssetOS plan. We review your database first and confirm scope before you commit.

Can I keep the Access file as a backup?

Absolutely — keep it as long as you like. You review the migrated data in a staging workspace before go-live, and AssetOS supports one-click export, so you’re never locked in.
