What's the difference between WebCheckout and Cheqroom?
WebCheckout is a basic rental software that schedules and checks out equipment. Cheqroom keeps it in motion the whole way, booking, maintenance, and return, all in one connected system.
CHEQROOM vs. WEBCHECKOUT
WebCheckout Schedules Your Equipment. Cheqroom Runs It, From Booking to Return.
WebCheckout books and checks out equipment. Cheqroom stays with the job after that, movement, maintenance, and return, all connected in one system.
TL;DR: The Quick Answer
Cheqroom is the Asset Operations Platform: one connected system for reservations, checkout, and maintenance, from the moment gear is booked to the moment it's back and ready. WebCheckout is purpose-built scheduling software for film schools and academic AV programs, with deep student information system integration, but no dedicated maintenance module. If your institution needs equipment operations connected end to end, not just scheduled, Cheqroom is built for that.
What Makes Cheqroom Different From WebCheckout?
More Than a Scheduling Tool
WebCheckout books and checks out equipment. Cheqroom keeps working after that: native Work Orders connect a flagged issue straight to resolution, tied to the same asset record as your reservations.

Why educational institutions love Cheqroom
Kevin Lyons, San Bernardino Valley College
I would definitely recommend Cheqroom to other universities or to anybody who deals with production gear. It has made a huge difference in keeping track of the gear, labeling it, and dealing with it when it needs service… It has transformed our incoming and outgoing gear and how we manage it.
Dayvon Mendelez, Student at CUNY Bronx Community College
When I first came to school, it was a blessing. In high school, we always had to go the long way, sending emails and waiting for a response. Now, I can do everything on my phone.

FAQs: WebCheckout vs. Cheqroom
Is Cheqroom cheaper than WebCheckout?
Cheqroom starts at $184 per admin per month, with unlimited assets, and depends on the workflows your institution needs, not department count or team size. WebCheckout's pricing depends on your specific setup and requires a conversation to determine.
Is there still a limit on regular (non-admin) users?
No, you can have as many regular users as you need. This model is designed to empower your entire team to use the equipment they need without extra costs.
How does Cheqroom compare to WebCheckout for multi department institutions?
Cheqroom. Pricing is per admin, not per department, so adding a new building or program doesn't trigger a jump to a custom quote the way WebCheckout's Lite to Pro tier does. Every department runs on the same connected system for reservations, checkout, and maintenance.
What is Asset Operations (Asset Ops)?
Asset Operations (AssetOps) is the discipline of coordinating people, physical assets, spaces, and maintenance in real time so work keeps moving.
AssetOps is not just about keeping a clean inventory list. It is the operating layer that turns disconnected tools into one connected operating ecosystem.
It shifts the focus from simply tracking assets to ensuring the availability, control, and efficiency of specialized, high-value physical equipment, spaces or everyday essentials for teams, departments or full organizations. It's the operating system for physical assets and the people that use them.
