    While not expensive, it is better suited to larger organizations since the requirement for an administrator is not easily maintained at lower user counts. Although the more a site uses it "out of the box" without configuration, the less the requirement for a system administrator.

    It's has all the functionality a proper CMMS tools required, it's act as a blueprint of what exactly all CMMS tools wants. All the features, costing, optimization, asset management all under one bucket. It's less appropriate for people who required simple UI, only some basic system or people with low budget. Because the cost for implementation is very high.

    It's very detailed oriented but the UI is difficult to use. It requires proper training and good people to handle day to day activities. The functionality that SAP provides like, Asset downtime, cost optimization, settling of cost at work order level and the moving it to related cost centre, this defines the actual CMMS system which is very useful.

    Return on Investment
    Planisware
    • This is always hard to gauge since we don't have metrics for "did nothing" to compare against. An old Business Roundtable white paper indicated that a 10% reduction in expense could be attained, but I don't think a general statement like that applies to any specific organization unless they can say their Project Management Maturity level is low.
