Antony Mishra - PeerSpot reviewer
Java Software Engineer at GPA
Asset management has become streamlined and decision-making is now driven by lifecycle data
The best features IBM Maximo offers are that it is very simple to deploy on OpenShift using Ansible playbooks. It also has excellent support for integration, is simple to configure, and the asset register is very straightforward. Work management and managing inventory are seamless. In terms of integration support, I have used preventive maintenance, work generation, accurate work execution planning, tracking actuals, and I can easily integrate with other tools and systems. IBM Maximo Suite gives me a single place where service cycles are standardized and tied to compliance. IBM Maximo has positively impacted my organization as it has been a very useful tool. It reduced human error by moving away from pen and paper-based scheduling. It saved cost by minimizing unexpected downtime of assets, with approximately 50% of time being saved. We have also reduced overwork among staff by removing redundant information and smoothing task flows. It helps us scale our team without micromanaging small issues.

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.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"It is configurable, where you can add extra fields to screens and to the database."
"When we integrated the Maximo DB with the BI tool, we were able to track and manage the inventory levels in a much more controllable way, and reduced the inventory levels significantly within one year."
"For what it represents and what it gives you, it is a very powerful tool."
"Flexibility is one of the key components, along with ease of use."
"For some clients we have up to 89% downtime reduction of equipment that generates over 1.2 million euro growth in revenue because we don't spend that much money on downtime and repair costs."
"They have a real strength of tracking the asset itself along with the condition of the asset, the maintenance of the asset and who has access to the asset, etc."
"We were doing all kinds of paperwork for every type of order and to maintain our assets but with the use of the IBM Maximo application, we can automate a lot of the processes."
"I have found Work Order management the most valuable feature. Additionally, it is a very robust and powerful solution."
"This is a very good and flexible solution, and it works across any kind of asset-intensive industries or organizations and would be very helpful for them in general."
"The product enables us to track our assets."
"The most demonstrable feature is the asset creation form, which is quite informative."
"The initial setup is straightforward."
"The documentation of the solution needs to be improved. It would be helpful. Additionally, more analytics would."
 

Cons

"You can get lost using the application"
"Vendor management needs enhancement."
"Areas for improvement would be the user interface and support for Arabic. They could also be more customer-oriented."
"Initial setup is a longer process because Maximo is bigger and has more processes."
"This solution could improve by integrating or embedding finances, charts of accounts, and invoicing."
"Licensing costs for IBM Maximo are now more expensive relative to some of the cloud-based platforms that offer cheaper solutions and are more flexible in terms of fees."
"One way IBM Maximo can be improved is that the interface is not modern or particularly user-friendly."
"From that perspective, the UI is quite old-fashioned, and that would be one of my main concerns."
"The UI and UX need severe improvements."
"The solution’s depreciation calculation setup needs to be improved because it is slightly disintegrated."
"The product must improve the approval process of asset transfer and disposal."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Where available, concurrent licenses can be more cost efficient and provide more flexibility."
"On a scale from one to ten, where one is low and ten is high, I rate the pricing a nine. The price is very high."

"IBM has changed the licensing policy. As I understand now, they are going from a complex way of licensing to a more simple way of licensing."
"The price of IBM Maximo could reduce, it is expensive."
"$USD700 per agent user."
