IBM Maximo is my daily companion, and the software supports asset management. Using the software, we can monitor and optimize our system's performance and conduct predictive maintenance to prevent sudden downtime. The software is very robust and cost-effective.IBM Maximo is very well suited to asset lifecycle management and system condition monitoring. The product is user-friendly and effective in managing work orders. The software pricing is much more affordable than that of other EAM systems. The best features IBM Maximo offers in my experience include workflow, assets tracking, and integration with other apps. The software is very effective in trend analysis and downtime tracking and is well-suited for preventive maintenance and predictive maintenance. Additionally, it has ease of use and seamless integration with other tools such as M-Power, Omino, and IBM Maximo. The reporting feature is excellent, as it allows for order and job card updates. IBM Maximo has positively impacted my organization, as we have noticed significant advantageous changes. The use of the software has significantly improved operational efficiency in our organization by streamlining processes and preventing system failures.

Has supported tracking asset lifecycles with cost and maintenance visibility
The best feature is the ability to track the entire lifecycle from when the asset enters your organization until disposal. The entire lifecycle can be captured, including costs, depreciation, and any maintenance performed on the asset. All these costs can be tracked, which is the beauty of it. The advanced analytics and reporting tools are highly advanced. Because of the advent of AI technology, integrating it with AI will probably add much more value to JD Edwards EnterpriseOne Asset Lifecycle Management.

"Revision management of file attachments."
"The solution is not stable. We can have one day when it is stable and another day it is not.

These are the small glitches, and stability issues we are facing."

"It was very slow due to the lagging issues. So that was kind of frustrating, considering how slow it was while functioning."
