Buyer's Checklist

7 Questions to Ask Any CMMS Vendor

The cheapest CMMS on paper often becomes the most expensive once inventory, API, multi-site and reporting are unlocked. Compare the total cost of the plan you will actually need.

  • Which features need a higher plan or an add-on?
  • How long until my technicians are using it daily?
  • Can technicians raise and update work orders on WhatsApp?
  • Is the app available in my team's languages?
  • Are OEE, Kaizen and 5S included, or separate tools?
  • Can I deploy on-premise if IT or compliance requires it?
  • What is the total cost per user with everything I need unlocked?

Frequently Asked Questions

The best way to compare is to try it. Start a 30-day free trial.

Start with your must-haves: preventive maintenance, work orders, asset and spares tracking, mobile access and reporting. Then check which features are gated behind higher plans, how long implementation takes, whether your team can use it on WhatsApp or in their own language, and the total cost per user once every feature you need is unlocked. A free trial with your own assets is the best test.
