Featured Reviews

Jose Pedro Muñoz - PeerSpot reviewer
A very strong and powerful tool in the market preferred by a variety of industries
I rate the technical support a seven out of ten. Three levels of support in IBM. The first one is a fixed level, while levels two and three are very good. Here, level one is not very good, as it takes time to go from level one to level two and from level two to level three. So, level one is of low capacity.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"We were able to scale perfectly.​"
"Provides great flexibility."
"The Preventive Maintenance feature, especially in its inspection routines and KPI abilities, is valuable."
"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."
"We can manage, organize, and track incidents, claims, jobs, tasks, preventive and corrective maintenance, locations, and assets."
"The ability to configure and integrate it with other solutions for ERP."
"I have found Work Order management the most valuable feature. Additionally, it is a very robust and powerful solution."
"​Maximo is very stable. We really do not have problem with stability.​"
"The documentation of the solution needs to be improved. It would be helpful. Additionally, more analytics would."
"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."
 

Cons

"There are always ways to improve and make things better."
"It's quite reliable, but new versions often are not too stable. They bring in enhancements but they break other stuff."
"I feel that the interface is a little too complicated with a large number of fields to enter."
"It needs full-service visibility. There are a lot of things that are hard for users to find out. For example, the Service Catalog is not too friendly. You really have to know what you're looking for."
"Areas for improvement would be the user interface and support for Arabic. They could also be more customer-oriented."
"This solution could improve by integrating or embedding finances, charts of accounts, and invoicing."
"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. Sometimes it crashes or becomes very slow, and there are times we are not even able to download all the databases. Without the database, we cannot work on that application. These are the small glitches, and stability issues we are facing."
"The UI and UX need severe improvements."
"The solution’s depreciation calculation setup needs to be improved because it is slightly disintegrated."
"The documentation of the solution needs to be improved. It would be helpful. Additionally, more analytics would."
"The product must improve the approval process of asset transfer and disposal."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"I do not know about the price of the solution. However, this has been an expensive project overall."
"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."
"Where available, concurrent licenses can be more cost efficient and provide more flexibility."
"You pay for what you get. There are lots of options depending on how you would like to implement Maximo."
"$USD700 per agent user."
"​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.​"
"Explore the possibility of using DB2. You will avoid the cost of SQL Server or Oracle licenses."
"The concurrent user license is much more effective in management and cost-wise, as it is more suitable for maintenance management."
"The product is not expensive."
