Overall Satisfaction with IBM Maximo

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

I help customers in using IBM Maximo. Usually the need comes from a better utilization of their assets, but also to analyze the different data they have. We perform requirements analysis and then we help them implement the product. Typical processes are regarding ticket management, work order management, warehousing, purchasing and preventive maintenance.

Pros and Cons

Pros

Workflow management; can adapt Maximo to the company's rules
User interface is very good since Maximo 7.6.1 version
Easy management of work orders and preventive maintenance

Cons

Dashboard to meet license metrics with real software users
Functionalities about start centers
Usability of QBR Reporting

Return on Investment

Positive to automate and control business processes
Positive to help decision making process
Negative: sometimes too complex to copy or duplicate implementations made for one organization to another

Alternatives Considered

None

Other Software Used

IBM Cognos Express, IBM Cognos

Likelihood to Recommend

It will be well suited in complex structures where there is the need to implement a specific workflow, automate the process and digitalize it. It is very helpful for companies managing many or complex assets, and where there are differente maintenance teams or there is the need of powerful analysis and statistics. It won't be good in small companies because maybe for them Maximo is too complex.
