B2W Maintain is a Computerized Maintenance Management System (CMMS) that aims to reduce downtime and fleet maintenance costs by automating preventive maintenance and connecting the field, shop, and office in real-time. The vendor states the software streamlines repair requests and work order processes and provides centralized access to equipment status and…
We have recommended to at least two other colleagues. It helps to prevent dishonest time keeping. Manual timekeeping by a supervisor seems to create a lot of room for errors including forgetfulness of who showed up and when. It's nice to be able to track when each employee is working or how many people are on each worksite.
We use the full suite of features in Maintain as it covers most of our needs, it is nice to have most of your data in one system, much easier to manage. We use telematics from third parties and even though we use the Parts/Inventory/Purchasing we sometimes need to go through the vendor portal to order but for the most part those work well most of the time, very little issues or minor ones at that. We can manage our shop/fleet/mechanic departments through this one program for the most part and users adapt to it very quickly.
Employee logs in and answers health-related questions before beginning work. They remotely provide their own timesheet information, adjustable by the administrator where needed.
Location at time of login is readily available. Distance from jobsite can be determined at any login.
Time for lunch is automatically deducted from work hours, logged by type of work interrupted, and easily adjustable by the employer if necessary.
Reports by employees of time spent on any type of work during the work day and work week are readily available. Work by job name is also available.
It is easer to keep someing going then change things out. Our employees have taken 6 months to learn this one, I do not want to reinvent the wheel. Just this week I have seen inprovment as they now know they do not get paid if they do not clock in and back out every day.
It's easy for anyone tech savvy. It is kind of impossible to make anything even more user-friendly than it already is. The app itself has zero issues for all my staff. The admin side of things takes a bit more knowing and learning.
Very easy for users to learn the system. The interface is easy to navigate. Contains fields for all the info we want to capture. Very little bugs occur and maintenance is low. Available on mobile (tablet/phone). Doesn't take long to perform most functions. Configuration isn't difficult except for when integrating with third parties for telematics and other data transfer. Aside from those few integrations, it performs most of the functions we need within the program.
I have had problems outside of normal business hours and I get a return phone call from them pretty quickly. There has only been I think 1 instance that I waited for too long to be able to fix my situation.
Gave a notice to all employees to come to work 15 min early on the day planned to implement the program. I had Spanish and English signs on how to down load the program and log in I showed them ALL how to log in and out and explained that they are responsible for reporting accurate time. I had them all sign a policy that lunch breaks were mandatory for all employees at least 30 min per day. This ensures safety on the roofs. We had a few people who did not have passwords to the app store and we had a few problems with android phones but most of them were on their way quickly. Most not happy about the change but I hope they see the benefit of it now.
We still use Sage, and ExakTime is compatible with it, which is why we went with ExakTime. So technically we use both at this time. ExakTime is a great pairing with Sage since Sage does not have any applications that let employees clock in and out. So we use ExakTime for that and then transfer the information to Sage for the reporting and issuing of deposits/checks, etc.
B2W Maintain is the only program we used day-to-day to manage our fleet. We also have Viewpoint Vista but it isn't really used for equipment other than to track the financials (purchase, sale, depreciation, taxes, etc.). Vista does have features for fleet management but they aren't as good our easy to use as B2W Maintain and it isn't close. Vista as a whole is an older program (getting retired 1/1/2027) without a web interface or easy to use user interface, it doesn't really compare, but it is what we we use for accounting so equipment records need to be stored there. I would never use Vista to actually actively manage the fleet and shops.
Employees clock in and out with accuracy to the minute instead of guessing how many hours they worked on each job/day
Jobs/locations are listed on the app so employees can easily find the job they are working on instead of hunting through paperwork to find the location number
Geofencing tracks employees clocking in outside the job location
