Accruent Maintenance Connection vs. SpaceIQ by Eptura

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.

SpaceIQ has been nothing but a positive for us. We have become so much more organized in our department and have only scratched the surface with what we can do with it. We are adding layers every week to improve our experience. Literally, the only thing I can think of that they could improve on is response time when it comes to customer service. We have loved SpaceIQ so far and I don't see that changing.

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.

I haven't had any issues with the software to date.

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.

Both of these companies have good space planning software solutions, but at the time we were exploring our options they were still building on what seemed to be an antiquated and bloated back-end that was not user-friendly compared to Space IQ. They had many more features than SpaceIQ could offer at the time, but SpaceIQ proved their ability to be agile and implement solutions faster than most tech companies I've worked with. At the time they were more of a startup, but I could see their promise, and we jumped in and have not regretted it one bit. They have continued to deliver innovative solutions even in areas where there were very few pain points. They continue to make things better and it's been great to work with them.

• 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

• It makes our lives easier.
• We are able to review staff quickly at a glance.
• We are able to reorganize our office space when needed.
