We know some organizations are investigating alternatives to Maximo, due to the increased licensing, upgrade, and operational cost of Maximo Application Suite (MAS) and the increased complexity of Red Hat Openshift. That may be how you landed on this page.
We’ve had several of our Maximo 7.6 support clients leave the fold in the past couple of years, and we know some other Maximo consultants have now expanded their services to include other EAM systems like SAP and newer subscription-based SaaS offerings like Fiix, MVP Plant, and others.
But moving to another EAM system and abandoning the “best-of-breed” approach that likely led you to Maximo introduces a lot of risk and churn into your business. The main reason companies choose Maximo in the first place is it is unlike any other EAM platform in terms of configurability to meet your business requirements. It’s essentially a development platform that comes with proven starter applications for maintenance, inventory management, and procurement.
The good news is you don’t have to jettison the deep organizational knowledge and experience you have with Maximo, nor the important Maximo configurations you’ve put in place to support your operations. We’ve solved the hard problem of running Maximo Application Suite (MAS) cost-effectively like you’ve run Maximo in the past, complete with your own dedicated servers.
The first alternative to Maximo that you should consider is: Maximo Application Suite on MaxStack. Please contact us to learn more.
