Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Provides great flexibility."
"There are not many enterprise asset management systems on the market and not many that have the categories that IBM Maximo has."
"The most valuable feature is asset management maintenance as well as asset management overall."
"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."
"It is configurable, where you can add extra fields to screens and to the database."
"I have found Work Order management the most valuable feature. Additionally, it is a very robust and powerful solution."
"Has a powerful audit combination that helps achieve high accuracy."
"The most valuable features of IBM Maximo are the overall power and interface, and there are a lot of different modules that we use that are helpful. Additionally, it's an integrated solution and it has a lot of capabilities."
"The whole product is important and valuable to us."
 

Cons

"IBM is a big company and they have a lot of products. Level One, the first level of tech support, is the one that is used to stop the tsunami. For everyone, it's always work to get past that."
"Revision management of file attachments."
"I feel that the interface is a little too complicated with a large number of fields to enter."
"The latest version is slow due to the power it requires."
"The pricing model of the solution has room for improvement as well as the after-sales support."
"Vendor management needs enhancement."
"​Maximo is a big system, so the initial setup is complex."
"IBM Maximo can improve the financial support and financial application, to make it more similar to an ERP as opposed to an EAM. Overall they can improve the financial processes."
"The product is not user-friendly."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"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."
"I do not know about the price of the solution. However, this has been an expensive project overall."
"Explore the possibility of using DB2. You will avoid the cost of SQL Server or Oracle licenses."
"IBM Maximo offers a licensing application, and you have to comply with the license."
"Where available, concurrent licenses can be more cost efficient and provide more flexibility."
"$USD700 per agent user."
"The price of IBM Maximo could reduce, it is expensive."
"​Explore internal processes in order to evaluate the correct number of users in each Maximo module, then evaluate the different offers of pricing and licensing.​"
"The tool is very expensive."
