CloudApper CMMS vs. IBM Maximo Real Estate and Facilities

The software helped me to better manage my technician and their movement. Overall made my task easier to do, and instantly I get the notification regardless of my location. The app has simplified the task of asset management and maintenance of inventory.

Tririga is well suited for companies who want to manage space, projects, and work. It could use some updating in the area of streamling the pop up boxes. In order to get into an area, it could take as many as 5 + areas to get to it, which makes things time consuming.

Incentivized

• It can be accessed from smartphones, making maintenance management easier than ever.
• Technicians can be assigned easily and everything can be tracked using the dashboard.
• We can just scan the barcode on the equipment and all the work history comes up.

• Diverse categories of requests available
• Ability to be as descriptive as possible without character limit
• Ease of mass resource assignment for tasks
• Ease of mass maintenance task/request printing work orders
• Clean site layout that is easy to navigate

Incentivized

• We didn't faced any issue or major problem while using the software.

• In order to get into the back end and manage spaces, there are too many "clicks" and pop up boxes to get to the area that is needed, which causes delays and confusions.
• It can be a bit slow when processing requests, pulling up maps.
• Trigia holds a lot of information, which is good but it could be easier to get to at times.

As I said, CloudApper CMMS has made our work so simple, it is difficult for us to use any other software. It is so easy to install that any one can be trained without any hassle. The data we receive based on CloudApper CMMS helps us to take certain decisions which are important for us.

I give it this rating because it has more than one way to get to most forms but it can be hard to navigate if you don't know the terms TRIRIGA uses. Also being a new developer can bring up issues with not knowing exactly where certain things are found. The documentation doesn't help too much sometimes since the TRIRIGA community is pretty small.

In the almost 7 months I have been working on my current project there has been exactly one unplanned outage. This was in the QA environment during data migration and was caused by a workflow that was circular and self referencing which caused the processing JAVA memory to spike, not resolve and then crash the server.

TRIRIGA does a good job of this, being a server based web application it is like other web based systems so it's not as fast as a client server application or a local system but it is very consistent across locations and for different roles and employees. This does allow consistent use no matter where people are located. It also does a fair job of notifying the user when it is loading with the spinning circle or hour glass. The reports can get fairly complex but native TRIRIGA reports perform well even when they are complex. They can be a little slow if they are fetching 100's of 1000's of rows but this doesn't take more than 10 or so seconds. I have yet to write a native report that takes more than 20 seconds and that 20 second report is getting data from 4 BO's and nets over 130K rows.

The process does seem to take some time and has to go through a preset escalation process. IBM does a good job of communicating through the process, it just seems to take it's natural course.

Do research on the client processes and determine which modules need to be implemented and in which order they should be implemented in.

Much faster web based program with more category options and ease of mass batch printing.

TRIRIGA can be split into many servers and is easily scaled over multiple environments. TRIRIGA is also capable of being implemented on multiple operating systems and a wide range of environments with different database management systems. This makes it easy for clients to choose since they can choose vendors they have previous relationships with or are required to use for various reasons.

Incentivized

• It has reduced machine downtime significantly
• It has helped improve the efficiency of the maintenance team
• It has improved collaboration regarding maintenance

• TRIRIGA has provided the client with the capability to correct deficiencies in the legacy software and to provide excellent reporting to give management the tools needed to make better informed decisions regarding their company.
• Negatively it has been a very big draw on resources to implement because the client is trying to implement 5 modules in a 15 month period.
• Another positive thing TRIRIGA has provided is it has broken objects into separate items that can each be audited. For example the legacy software only tracked one budget amount and if that was changed the system didn't say who or what was changed. TRIRIGA gives a break down of what line item is changed, who did it, and when. Properties can be changed to track what the pre-change and post-change data was. This is a great feature for auditing purposes.
