eMaint CMMS vs. NEXGEN Asset Management

eMaint is well suited to larger facilities with dedicated scheduler/planners. Learning to navigate the database and create reports requires a dedicated resource. Part-time users often forget the process for entering data and navigating the database. In smaller organizations where multiple users enter assets, planned maintenance (PM) tasks and vendors, keeping standardization in the system formatting was difficult.

It is very easy to use and everyone knows about it. It integrates quite easily with most everything. Our clients have not complained about it and seems to be well suited to the manufacturing sector where we work, but for small mom and pop shop it's a bit much, we would recommend a more simple product to those clients

The mobile platform has improved a lot in the 5-6 years we've been involved. In my opinion, NEXGEN Asset Management has targeted making mobile devices as user-friendly and useful as possible for field users. NEXGEN University has been a great tool to educate the use of these mobile platforms.

eMaint was by far most the most comprehensive and customizable solution we looked at. The eMaint team was also extremely responsive and available during the selection process. The product training and conferences were very helpful for new user orientation and best practice learning. The customizable reports also allowed us to provide data to management in an easy to digest format

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 about it
