- 3 stars: 22 reviews (8%)
- 2 stars: 4 reviews (1%)

### Most mentioned pros

- I like the fact it is extremely customizable; I have built our system from the ground up and so far, anything that anyone has need it to do, I was able to build a workflow to accomplish the task.
- I like that I get to run reports based off of different departments and I even got to break down the reports with details.
- I would like to see better mobile editing options as well as more reporting features.

### Most mentioned cons

- Sometimes we have the need to deleting a user from several areas, it is hard to find and figure what areas a person is associated with if you are not the person who originally enter that person into the system.
- I don't feel like the training in brightly academy was detailed enough; it was more about what the software could do, and less about how to set up those configurations.
- Limited viewing capabilities for users that can only submit maintenance requests, Free users.

### The Dude IS on your side !!

- Overall rating: 5/5
- Reviewer: Darryl E. R.
- Verified reviewer: Yes
- Industry: Aviation & Aerospace
- Company size: 51-200 employees
- Product usage: Used daily for more than 2 years
- Reviewed: December 2020

Uptime !! Real time maintenance requests. Mobile apps and the ability to track labor and costs. Not to mention spare parts and inventory. Our production folks can't believe the response team from maintenance! Let me know what maintenance people are doing without having to ask. I love being able to assign them work no matter where the are.. I do recommend buying tablets for them... I use $120 tablets. One or two hours of uptime pays for those quickly !

#### Ratings breakdown

- Ease of use: 5/5
- Value for money: 5/5
- Customer support: 5/5
- Functionality: 5/5

#### Pros

This software is truly the answer to maintenance and PM programs. Every machining and manufacturing plant in America should use this. If you have 5 or 5000 pieces of equipment, facility, or anything needing maintenance this should be your software. I have had to use ERP maintenance add ons that never allowed real TPM quality support. This software is designed SPECIFICALLY for maintenance. It is easy to use and learn. It pays for itself in the first 3 months. I have implemented this software 3 times. I am not paid by them, but I would recommend them to any company. I have been in Manufacturing for just over 30 years, and this is the best software for this I have seen! IT works !

#### Cons

I would like an add on that lets operators enter simple daily PM's and simple checks that can be tailored for each asset.

### Lots of potential, currently a time sucking data bank though

- Overall rating: 4/5
- Reviewer: Michael K.
- Industry: Building Materials

- Product usage: Used daily for more than 2 years
- Reviewed: October 2026

Decent to use when it is setup correctly. It has improved lots and is starting to implement Ai power a bit later than the competition. Very heavy on data entry, quite a lot of man hours involved in getting established. It took use 2 years to really get the hang of it.

#### Ratings breakdown

- Ease of use: 3/5
- Value for money: 3/5
- Customer support: 4/5
- Functionality: 3/5

#### Pros

Accurate data, we're able to ensure that asset labels and tracking of service is captured. Great for keeping inventory control. It forced us to manage our spare parts inventory more efficiently.

#### Cons

Very underutilized Ai power. I still can't simply delete decommissioned assets from the system. We have to quarantine them in a virtual "location" to remove them from our site. Having to save work orders 3 times every time we create one from the app is very tedious. You cannot check work orders specific to an asset from the work order tab, you have to go to the asset tab and them select "view WOs" to search the history of work done. searching work orders this way for troubleshooting equipment has not been very effective for us. An Ai powered troubleshooting agent would be a huge advantage in leveraging our existing data toward solving problems and adjusting PM timelines. I wish there was a scheduling calendar to help visualize scheduled work orders.

#### Reasons for choosing Asset Essentials

the committee chose it, I was not directly involved.

#### Pros

very hard to understand him, and like always nothing is resolved. I explained in my message to support services, and then they have to call. I hate that.

#### Cons

Nothing, the system is made for IT Technicians, not a common user like me or anyone in our Physical Plant Department. This system is way to technical.

### Asset Essentials for Education use

It's been ok. I would like to see better mobile editing options as well as more reporting features. The implementation took a very long time but the support was good. At the time, it was the best option but I'm not sure I'd make the same choice again. It's priced similar to others in the market.

#### Ratings breakdown

- Ease of use: 3/5
- Value for money: 3/5
- Customer support: 4/5
- Functionality: 3/5

#### Pros

It's very easy to modify. It has been easy to set up 'views' for different areas to use. Setting up crews is also very easy and makes assigning work easy within a department.

#### Cons

It's no longer designed just for education so we needed to do a lot of adjusting to make it work for our needs. The reporting and analytics needs work. The adding of labor is more cumbersome than it should be. The security of the 'reporting' feature is not able to be locked down to allow nurses to use it for what we need.

#### Reasons for choosing Asset Essentials

At the time, FMX did not have utility tracking capabilities, we also wanted to have the history from School Dude. At the time, Asset Essentials had the best app. We also looked at Incident IQ which our IT team uses. I'm not sure if that's the same product as Incident Tracker that is listed above.

#### Reasons for switching to Asset Essentials

School Dude was getting outdated and was not supported as it should be....this was the upgrade of that product. I had to select an option in the box above but School Dude was not available as an option.

#### Ratings breakdown

- Ease of use: 5/5

- Functionality: 4/5

#### Pros

I like the fact it is extremely customizable; I have built our system from the ground up and so far, anything that anyone has need it to do, I was able to build a workflow to accomplish the task. We use SSO so security is tight. We are a medium size school system and compared to other application we use the value for is on point. We use this system for all work ordered and asset management, we live and die by it, It always works and if I do have an issue support is timely into looking into the issue and finding a resolution.

#### Cons

The biggest issue we have is it doesn't offer text message notifications for work orders. The notifications with email are ok, but text messages are much easier.

#### Reasons for choosing Asset Essentials

School Dude was being phased out, and we were not aware at the time.

#### Reasons for switching to Asset Essentials

We switched because the product we were using did not work.

I find it extremely easy to create my own work orders for my occupants. I am responsible for a large University School of Medicine and it's very helpful to be able to add my own detailed description of the issue as well as attach phots to help guide the techs.

#### Pros

I like the ability to get notices when the status of my work order is either closed or changed with notes and updates to the status of the repair.

#### Cons

Sometimes our techs will close a work order without putting notes on it. Then I have to track them down to find out the outcome or the next step. I think the comments section should be a mandatory box to fill.

I like that we can track our work and the ease of which the crews can track themselves and their work loads.

#### Cons

My biggest problem is I can't input the things that directly report to my group. We were not originally set up to be individual. The Grounds Dept. has grown and we need to be able to be more specific in what we do. This will allow us to accurately track those job types. I very much want to individualize the program for accurate measures.

#### Reasons for switching to Asset Essentials

The boss chose to do so. We relearned the new system (DUDE) and are now using it.

Asset Essentials is a powerful and reliable CMMS that provides a centralized solution for complex asset and maintenance management. Its strengths lie in its comprehensive features, mobile access, and excellent customer support. However, users should be prepared for a learning curve and some potential frustrations with the user interface and mobile app stability. The experience is often described as a trade-off: a functional and feature-rich system that may lack the modern polish and simplicity of some newer alternatives
