New user of MEX in a regional school
Outstanding in all respects so far (not all modules have been used yet, but more will be used early 2024). It did take some time to set up the "shell" but was well worthwhile. Data imports were easily done. Congratulations to the entire MEX team.
PROSThere are numerous positive aspects to MEX - security, flexibility, automation and cross liking of data and reporting functionality. A very significant aspect is the excellent help files and support offered by everyone at MEX. I have been looking for something like this for a very long time and am more than happy with everything and everyone. As mentioned, great help files and you tube videos.
CONSNo bad experiences yet, any new system will have a very steep learning curve. It took some time to get my head around the set up, but previous understanding of maintenance requirements / tracking functionality was a bonus. I think new users need to understand their operations / requirements very well and allow enough time to get the system to a useable place. That is not a negative aspect at all, but it is a cost to be aware of.
Reason for choosing MEX Maintenance
Numerous products were considered, but MEX seemed to fulfill our requirements the best.
Reasons for switching to MEX Maintenance
Could not be cloud based, very cumbersome and did not have any of the features I required. The existing program was not really suitable for use in other departments. My first attempt at managing this was to build an access data base, but got to the limit of my expertise and after many years have settled on MEX.

MEX = KISS Value for money.
This software is ideal for small to midsize business. The ease of use is that actual day to day users will love it. Value for money.
PROSExtremely easy to use..Everything flows nicely, and easy to find Does the basics well.. WO-PO connection parts booking etc easy. WO PO process easy and well thought out. The PM is part is simple and easy to use. Parts easy to book to WO/PO or raising thru PMs. Ops(Online Request) works well.. MEX app works well.. Stores module well thought out-easy to use.. Support is excellent. Buying the software is extremely cheap, and is value for money. Searching for anything within the system easy. Easy to customize the interface with no programming skills. Because the accounts side of things is basic it is actually easy to understand. Asset tree structure easy to use, and simple to walk thru assets details. Printing attaching documents simple. Screens are quick to load (optimize with profiles and ranges).
CONSFinancial side is a bit basic, will be limiting for large companies. Scheduler system not the best. Even thou pages are infinitely customizable for users there is a compromise with the screen tlagging ages to load/freezing.. The odd annoying bug. Tailored to fleet/mining.. Wire frame reports a bit on the basic side. MEX app only IOS.

Mex user, spare parts and WO's mostly
Our program was setup by an office junior, not an experienced user, therefore it's not setup right and it's too complicated for anyone to risk changing / correcting it. As such we use it the best we can, but don't tap into a tenth of the functions we should be using it for
PROSrelatively straight forward to use. THE BETTER the initial SET-UP the better the end product and usability. (for clarity, I'm supplying feedback on the Mex system of a company I contract too. They have 200+ employees)
CONSWould REALLY like to see ways of simply uploading from an excel spreadsheet for Work Orders. By this, I mean clear to see how the current Mex data base is setup i.e. First column (or field) is x, second field is Y etc. That way, I can arrange MY EXCEL spreadsheet correctly before uploading

Casella Family Brands initiated the use of Mex in 2007 "Just to help us with Maintenance", Who would have thought of the wide usage & power of the system now, The Business has grown considerably & Mex has adapted & grown with us from the early days of 10 users to now having 225 users, the business was on 1 site now we have multiple sites looking after maintenance function of 150+ maintenance staff & an asset register with over 10,000 assets. All functions of the Mex System are utilized from the requesting process & approval to the acquisition of parts & final Scheduling, A comprehensive history has been developed which we now have as a resource to use on reporting regulatory requirements & in moving the maintenance function forward strategically. The system may not be the biggest out there but its ability to be adaptable to our designed maintenance program whilst keeping a robust user environment is invaluable in running the day to day maintenance function, Mex is now in the centre of all the maintenance functions on all our sites giving us control of all our labour, materials, running costs & information.
PROSIts ability to adapt to our changing maintenance function while withholding a robust user environment.
CONSThe systems scheduler is clunky & needs improvement, eventually as every user continues down the path of true jobs control the scheduling of the workload must be the pathway to this result.

Thanks very much for the review Harvey, we¿re happy to hear that you¿ve had such a great experience with MEX over the last 9 years and thank you for the feedback regarding the scheduler. If you ever need any assistance you can always phone in and talk to our support staff. Thanks for taking the time to review MEX.

An awesome easy to use maintenance system
very good
PROSEasy to implement, and learn. Does all the preventative planning and speeds up the re-occurring purchasing
CONSNo long term asset management functionality. I would like to see this implemented into MEX, so you can plan long-term improvements and capital replacements using MEX for major work at least 3-10 years ahead. Also no PM and asset criticality in system.
Vendor Response
Hi Martin, Thank you for sharing your feedback, both positive and constructive. We are super pleased to hear that you find MEX easy to implement and learn. In regards to long term Asset Management functionality, we would love to hear your thoughts on what more we can do to move in this direction. Do note with a recent update of MEX we have introduced Asset Criticality so you may need to update your system to make use of this new function. A member of our support team will be in touch shortly to help you with this. Thanks again for your review - we really appreciate it! Kind Regards, The MEX Team
