Equips vs. FacilityBot

Equips is great to handle multiple units at different locations and maintain stats. As for managing 3rd party vendors, Equips still puts some of the responsibility on me to respond to 3rd party invoices. This was well Managed when I first stared with Equips over 3 years ago. As of lately, this seems to be slacking on a bigger scale. Almost every time I make a service call for our color copiers, I later receive an invoice from the vendor, and an invoice-reminder from the vendor. This is currently an ongoing issue which concerns me about adding any more units in the future.

Facilities Managers spend their days ensuring that the building operations are running smoothly and efficiently. Using FacilityBot helps them to digitize their FM workflows so that can manage their time more easily and effectively. It's all about working smarter, not harder! The asset management function of FacilityBot is also beneficial and useful. The tool also provides easy-to-read statistics reports for users.

• Handles communication well.
• Easy to use portal.
• Quick response time.

• Fault Reporting
• Asset Management
• Preventive Maintenance

• I still get invoices from the 3rd party vendor. Equips has inconsistent directions on how to handle this.

• Limited checklist templates
• To have extension for the free trial
• There is room for improvement in terms of customization of simple reports.

Equips is more affordable in comparison and we still get to use Ricoh through them.

FacilityBot replaced multiple layers of coordination and communication between users and subcontractors. There are many facilities management systems that are not user-friendly on the market. Most of them do not support multiple communication methods and are costly. Unlike FacilityBot, the implementation wasn't as straightforward. In terms of features, not many are as feature-rich as FacilityBot.

• We've saved money by switching to Equips.

• Quick and prompt fault reporting and tracking
• Save cost and resources
• FacilityBot also provides simple and evaluated statistics
