Featured Reviews

Omar Samy - PeerSpot reviewer
Improved resource management and streamlined operations enhance organizational efficiency
IBM Maximo could be improved if they added a comprehensive finance module, as that would make it a more complete standalone application. Currently, if you need specific finance software, you need to purchase something such as SAP and integrate it with IBM Maximo. Coverage in this area would help reduce dependency on additional software. Regarding finance features, I would want to see payment capabilities added to IBM Maximo, particularly for factories making payments with providers and collections. This feature isn't adequately covered in IBM Maximo. Additionally, enhanced finance reporting and managing GL would be beneficial. IBM Maximo covers GL but only at a surface level. It doesn't provide deep account analysis.
RajneeshThamke - PeerSpot reviewer
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

"The incident management feature is good because it allows you to keep track of and classify issues."
"The most valuable feature is asset management maintenance as well as asset management overall."
"Preventive maintenance management."
"The most valuable feature is the ability to correct maintenance."
"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 are very thankful to have IBM integrated with our own Legacy cloud-based system"
"I have found Work Order management the most valuable feature. Additionally, it is a very robust and powerful solution."
"The ability to configure and integrate it with other solutions for ERP."
"The most demonstrable feature is the asset creation form, which is quite informative."
"The product enables us to track our assets."
"The documentation of the solution needs to be improved. It would be helpful. Additionally, more analytics would."
"The initial setup is straightforward."
 

Cons

"The initial setup was complex, because it is a complex product."
"Vendor management needs enhancement."
"The pricing model of the solution has room for improvement as well as the after-sales support."
"It's quite reliable, but new versions often are not too stable. They bring in enhancements but they break other stuff."
"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."
"Revision management of file attachments."
"Although you can create notifications with Maximo, the configuration and options could be improved."
"There are always ways to improve and make things better."
"The product must improve the approval process of asset transfer and disposal."
"The solution’s depreciation calculation setup needs to be improved because it is slightly disintegrated."
"The UI and UX need severe improvements."
"The documentation of the solution needs to be improved. It would be helpful. Additionally, more analytics would."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The concurrent user license is much more effective in management and cost-wise, as it is more suitable for maintenance management."
"I do not know about the price of the solution. However, this has been an expensive project overall."
"IBM Maximo offers a licensing application, and you have to comply with the license."
"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."
"Explore the possibility of using DB2. You will avoid the cost of SQL Server or Oracle licenses."
"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."
"The price of IBM Maximo could reduce, it is expensive."
"The product is not expensive."
