Accruent Maintenance Connection vs. Eagle CMMS by TMA Systems

Everyone has assets, everyone has people, and everyone has to do some work on those assets with those people. Maintenance Connection strives to provide an efficient solution to help get the work done while making it simple to record that you did. Aggregate that data and make decisions for the future based on real information.

Among circuit design and printed circuit programs, it is ahead of other programs thanks to its accessibility and ease of use. Its most important feature is that it supports both the circuit design and the printed circuit program in harmony. This feature is not available in all programs. For educational purposes, students should be allowed to use it for a period of time. Especially if you do not have a license in program design devs with processors, you cannot try programs with more than 2KB.

• Customer Service is Outstanding.
• Changes are made by MC through the entire network that makes suggestions.
• The software is simple to use so even the most seasoned mechanic can navigate it.

• Thanks to the library support of processors, especially PIC microcontrollers, it becomes possible to verify the code you have written by uploading the HEX code before it goes into real production.
• It is quite easy to find and access many educational materials to learn the program.
• From the simplest circuit to the most complex circuit, it is quite easy to design and follow.

Incentivized

• No improvements at this time.

• Path deficiencies need to be considered when transitioning the program from ISIS circuit design to ARES printed circuit drawing.
• Especially if you are working on a processor design in ISIS, the external oscillator circuit does not pass when you transfer it to ARES.
• In LCD and motor applications, the circuit sometimes does not work.
• It changes according to the years in its own versions and old files are not opened in new versions.

If I find a product with better support and some additional operational asset functions I would be willing to make a move.

Its very user friendly and works well in a manufacturing setting.

They are timely, responsive, and resolve issues within a day. I only give them one less point because in their recent acquisition by Accruent they lost the MC Support portal they used to have, and in its place they are using Accruents version. Which is well, just not as good.

If you do not have a scheduler for the PM and work order program hire one first. They can help with the migration and know how everything works in your facility.

It much more user-friendly and does not have a lot of wasted information that you would never use. I did a lot of research on other CMMS programs and questioned other users and was allowed to use the test module for 3 months. That pretty much sealed the deal for everyone except for those afraid of change. Eventually, they all fall in line and accept the new CMMS system.

Eagle Technology ProTeus is quick and easy to use compared to other programs. There are many materials available (books, articles, videos) especially to learn how to use it. The interface of the program is quite plain and simple compared to other programs.

• Our parts cost overall has had a great positive impact on our ROI. We are able to track parts in a more efficient manner that helps us to optimize inventory and reduce stock outs, in addition to helping us identify items that have no turn over.
• Equipment downtime with regards to Corrective vs Preventive type work orders has made a big impact to our ROI. With the use of the Preventive Maintenance Module in Maintenance Connection, we have made a good shift towards more planned machine maintenance and less corrective type failures.

Incentivized

• Saving time and money by easily testing the circuits on the computer before physically installing them on the board.
• Easy transition from circuit design to printed circuit.
• Quick code testing in applications with CPU circuits.
• In the trial version, transferring a maximum of 2KB of data to the processors is considered negative.
