Field Service (formerly known as Field Service Lightning) is a customizable, mobile-friendly field service hub in Salesforce. It provides tools to manage work orders, scheduling, and a mobile workforce.
I would recommend Maximo to organizations with the patience and budget for long-term returns. It is not an easy platform to learn at first, but if you invest the time, it pays you back tenfold. It is not for people looking for a simple solution; this is a tool built for serious asset management.
Salesforce Field Service is a powerful and feature-rich solution for managing field service operations. With AI-driven scheduling, seamless mobile access for technicians, and deep integration with the Salesforce ecosystem, it helps businesses enhance efficiency, improve customer satisfaction, and optimize service delivery. While it may be costly and complex to implement, its scalability and ability to grow with your business make it a worthwhile investment for many organizations.
Extensive asset tracking and management. IBM Maximo is extremely capable of handling all sorts of assets so you can track every detail and part of the lifecycle of an asset inside an organization.
Highly customizable. If the broad array of possibilities inside IBM Maximo still isn't suited for your specific application, it is possible to customize it to a very high degree so it can fit the needs of your organization.
Preventive maintenance and services. With IBM Maximo, it is possible to schedule all sorts of preventive maintenance for your equipment, maximizing the uptime of your systems and machinery and minimizing unforeseen events.
IBM MAS is the leader in the EAM space. They continue to evolve with the newest technology to stay on the forefront of cutting edge asset management. Their continued international growth and market share demonstrate the effectiveness of the product, its ease of use, and the return on investment of new functionalities.
As of right now there is not a alternative that seems to offer all of the functionality with a vision of what is needed in the future. It is my belief that ClickSoftware will remain a leader in Mobile Workforce Management for a long time.
The IBM Maximo Application Suite is well known for inventory management solutions. This solution is in use by many corporations but mostly I have seen its use in Ports, defense and aerospace industries. Some of the benefits are 1. asset tracking is amazing 2. Maintenance cost is less 3. Reduced inspection costs 4. Less downtime 5. It allows customization 6 Simplify data management 7. Highly adaptable
I have regularly contacted IBM Support to report issues and raise requests for issues we face during project implementations. The response from them has overall been good and to the point, and they get back to us within a day or 2 and guide us through the process of fixing it or providing an interim fix of the product
Having a program that gives sales leaders a real time view was game changing. Time was always an issue because there wasn't always a sales leader available for closing sales. This has allowed for any sales leader to jump in and help make the sale without the need to do a warm transfer.
Overall the training was quite informative but did lack detail in some areas. It had all of the necessary content for an experience product user but didn't offer enough information for a new user to complete the training and then feel comfortable in real-world situations running or managing the software. I would recommend this course for anyone with at least 1 year of full-time exposure to the ClickSchedule product.
Implementation of IBM MAS as a service provider has been easy. The functionality in the OEM space has been the best of its class with all related modules and application subject to maintenance
SAP Plant Manager. We’re working a lot in critical infrastructure, so in Europe it’s not allowed by law to put asset data in the cloud, especially when it’s connected to geolocation. SAP is moving to the cloud, and IT is a cloud-only solution. So that’s the advantage of Maximo, and that’s why we’re sticking with it.
We selected the Salesforce Field Service Lightning because we are already using Salesforce as a CRM and Salesforce Field Service Lightning is best suited to it so that's why we picked it We also have seen some reviews and Field Service is far better than others and its service is also very good according to its reviews
A Significant improvement in Tracking and Managing Assets with a History of PM Work Orders, Asset transfers, and maintenance costs linked to procurement and inventory usage
Record accurate labor work hours with proper people management while not missing any schedules and appointments
With the Cost Management and Budgeting application, it has allowed budget controllers to make timely and proper decisions in preparing budgets, booking costs, track commitments and over commitments, and make deliverable forecasts
Negative: Complication to use so we are using time up and employee salary to learn
Negative: We had to hire someone to create and automate our workflows
Pro: Integrates quickly and easy with Salesforce CRM which helps us to keep track of customer, reseller information so we can see where we need to improve on sales
