NEXGEN Asset Management
Chose NEXGEN Asset Management
Nexgen is much more widely use and required less upfront investment in training. it was also less costly than Upkeep. The marketing was about the same for both, but it seemed like a simple decision as one of our key people had used nexgen previously and had good things to say …

NEXGEN Asset Management is more user-friendly, intuitive, and easy to use. NEXGEN Asset Management integrates with GIS and CCTV which Accela could not do.

We are using NEXGEN in a totally different manner than I used other systems, so it is not feasible to compare.

NEXGEN is a superior product to both and the main attribute of NEXGEN is its tech support team

Lucity and Cityworks were on my radar when I was looking at NEXGEN in 2009.
Chose NEXGEN Asset Management
The customization options, ability to link work orders and service requests, ease of use, preventive maintenance module, knowledge base, and support are far superior compared to the other asset management software used previously. The ability to request a future enhancement …
Chose NEXGEN Asset Management
NEXGEN is much more user-friendly, has the capabilities we need for our department, and is much more reliable. When using Tyler the program will crash on a regular basis and isn't accessible during that time, which is a huge issue for me because I am primarily working within …
Chose NEXGEN Asset Management
I do like the admin simplicity, UI, and tools of NEXGEN better. Maximo and Cityworks have very few bugs. NEXGEN needs better QA and response time on development issues.

In my opinion, this product was designed for water/wastewater application, and my recommendations would be to other utilities. But, NEXGEN Asset Management has developed versatility in its modules to accommodate multiple industries. NEXGEN University has been a great tool to help me educate end-users with deployment. Also, I have been able to use the knowledge base articles to resolve small issues and educate myself on the functionalities incorporated within the software.

It is super easy to use and very easy to share, the only downside is you need to invest in training people for it just like any other software, I advise using a mix of in-person hands on training and web tools, because the web tools dont seem to be adequate for everyone
