    IBM Maximo is the state of the art of the software controlling buildings, plant, equipements. It's the real Internet of Things

    Cons

    No major cons for this software, except the direct support from IBM; it's a little slow and it's better to be in touch witha skilled reseller.

    Pros

    What I like the most is: traceability, functionalities, conectivity. If you feed the software with good information, it will be a powerful tool for your company. You can keep track of a lot of things in one place. Perfect for maintenance management. Everyday I learn something new about it.

    Cons

    What I like the least would be the ease of use, interface is not very friendly for user, in my opinion. When you learn two or three things you start understanding how every module works, because it's similar, but some things don't really make sense at the beginning. And some functionalities work better from one browser to other, so I keep changing browsers (from Edge to Chrome, for example)

    Stream line the data base make it more user friendly put some training videos online for everyone to use for free. The system is for companies that have computer geeks not to maintenance people who are alawys getting budgets slashed.Keep it simple stupid most of the time it's a flashy front program and the real work is done with excel,word or Google products.

    Pros

    The name is short. It looks good it is web based the icons are bright the drop down menus help.The customer services is great as long as you pay the fees
    Not worth it other programs compete at a fraction of the cost.

    Cons

    To complex a system for most businesses you have to have a staff dedicated just for the system. 450 page manual that never gets read who has time. Companies use it for show no for work because it takes to long to learn it and if you have a problem with it your stuck. Labor intense system others can do with petty cash funds.

    One of the more complex CMMS systems on the market today.

    Pros

    The program is very robust. It is deep in that you can drill down and be very specific as to the type of reports you can generate. It's PM capabilities allow you to create a huge database.

    Cons

    The program is not particularly user friendly. It requires a good deal of training for both data entry and to generate reports.

    Out of the box features were fantastic.

    Pros

    I mostly like the functionality and the custom features. There are a lot of out of the box features, but you can still customize when you need.

    Cons

    I least like that this is an on prem software. This requires all of the general on prem needs where a cloud tool saves so much infrastructure headache.

    Pros

    The Software is the most advanced you can get out of a CMMS, it features more than you could ever ask for and should be on the higher rating of things, but there are still some things that hold it back

    Cons

    Maximo has some of the most advanced features, too many features. Doubtful that companies will ever use every feature offered. The price is extraordinarily high, probably due to being so feature packed, but with cheaper software doing everything you would need Maximo is over the top, somewhat unnecessarily

    I spent 10 yrs using Maximo for a previous employer. The desktop version is very easy to use. There were several issues getting ipads to sync up the correct inventory numbers.

    Pros

    The functions that I needed worked very well

    Cons

    There were a lot of functions that weren't needed. Needs more customization.

    Pros

    Ability to capture data on Work Orders. Notes, labor, materials, purchasing, invoicing and attachments. We also utilize routes, condition monitoring, and meters.
