Considered Both Products
Archibus
Chose Archibus
Better management integration from users and administrators. Archibus is still much better for multiple building management. It’s ability to overlay and activate specific spaces on a floor plan makes it very easy to visualize.
Chose Archibus
Archibus compares well with other IWMS software when it comes to integrating with BIM models and reporting capabilities. I selected Archibus as it has all the tools and processes needed to manage space and moves, with the intention to expand to other modules like Lease …
MaintainX
Chose MaintainX
I think MaintainX is far better in terms of inventory management and tracking than any other product I've seen. We use it exclusively for this role at my facility, even though we have other software options available.
Chose MaintainX
MaintainX is by far a lot easier to navigate around in. Creating procedures and work orders is much easier that now even our maintenance techs are creating these items with minimal training involved. Generating reports that are meaningful became a whole lot easier due to drop …
Chose MaintainX
MaintainX is easier to use, more flexible, and allows us to manage multiple work orders at once, and the mobile app makes it easier for our workers to see and manage their work orders for their shifts. goFMX was more dated, did not offer a mobile app, and much harder to manage …

It’s best suited for Large multi-building configurations (campus) with self-service funtions. There are better options for single buildings. This tool really shines when you are managing multiple buildings that are accessed by the same users.

Creating work orders and procedures is a great way to insure our assets are being inspected as they are needed. Our organization sets up inspections by locations and the number of assets they have. Tying the inspection report and invoice to each asset. However, It was a bit challenging to create work orders/procedures for all assets rather than by location. The original process we set up in the implementation process just didn't work. but with the help of Sergio we were able to come up with a solution that works. It's a bit cumbersome but nevertheless it works.

  • Missing some functions, but the team is always on top of innovation so if I don't see it today, it may be there tomorrow.
  • Wish there was a simpler way for operators to complete inspections rather than having to create work requests.
  • Pricing is confusing and the way that they have their billing set up is strange.

Usability
User perspective it is simple through a web portal that shows all spaces and buildings. But as an administrator it was quite a bit of work to set up. And by extension updating is also a lot of work

From the initial trial period to now using the system in full, the system was easy to navigate from the very start. The teaching videos within the system are excellent and really help with how to use the system effectively

Archibus compares well with other IWMS software when it comes to integrating with BIM models and reporting capabilities. I selected Archibus as it has all the tools and processes needed to manage space and moves, with the intention to expand to other modules like Lease Administration and Asset Management. The constant upgrades to Archibus also helps to keep the software up-to-date with other third party products such as Revit.

  • It has helped not only my team, but the management of our company to see what we do and how we are doing maintenance.
  • Our inventory is a lot to work on, but MaintainX has changed the way we used to inventory and makes it easier for the team to check out or put away parts.
  • Having QR codes around our building for requesters and maintenance to scan has helped out when trying to decipher where the problem is.
