Hammock

Hammock Corporation is a Tokyo company that develops and sells software for businesses. It was founded on 1 April 1994, and its president's message says it has been profitable since it started. Its best known product is AssetView, which manages and secures company PCs. The company groups its work into three areas: network solutions, sales digital transformation and AI data entry, and it also sells Japanese editions of software made overseas.

What it does

The network solutions line is built around the AssetView family. AssetView, the on-premises product, is integrated IT operations software that customers buy by function and licence count; its pages list IT asset management, PC update management, software distribution, a remote console, PC operation logs, device control, web filtering, data leak prevention and malware protection. AssetView CLOUD is a single-tenant cloud edition with functions comparable to the on-premises product. AssetView Cloud + is a newer cloud product organised around the individual user, covering information assets, IT assets and SaaS subscriptions; a release on 28 September 2026 added Microsoft Entra ID integration.

The sales line includes HotProfile, a business card management and sales support tool, and HotApproach, a form-based tool for finding new customers. The AI data entry line includes DX OCR, an AI-OCR service that needs no form design, and AnyForm OCR for paperless order handling.

Who it serves

The AssetView pages name local governments, boards of education and schools, law firms, the automotive industry, financial services, healthcare and construction, and say the products are used by companies of many sizes. Hammock sells directly and through partners, and runs a customer success team that supports customers from installation onwards.
