MaintiMizer

Update of previous review.

Pros

I've relied on Maintimizer for years to manage parts, and its search function remains unparalleled. Previously, I had issues with part deletion, but recent software updates have resolved this. Compared to other products, Maintimizer's search tool excels. Despite complaints about too many fields, I find it advantageous. Often, using just a portion of one field yields quick results. Precision during part entry pays off, especially when dealing with poorly labeled items.

Cons

I don't have any significant complaints except maybe about the manual, although I'm sure it's been updated since I last used it. This software offers extensive capabilities, and a more detailed manual would have expedited our utilization. From my experience with inventory management, any issues typically arise from user errors rather than flaws in the software. Consistency and thoroughness in data entry pay off in the long term.

MaintiMizer Training

Pros

I can input all parts and books into the system.

Cons

I haven't encountered any issues. It seems to meet our requirements perfectly.

Awesome training

Pros

The training was responsive and easy to follow.

Cons

Specific glitches were identified during the risk assessment.

Solid software

Pros

It offers ample room for our future growth.

Cons

The query process assumes a level of expertise akin to that of a database manager, rather than an average user.

Maintimizer Needs Better Flow

Pros

I value the equipment arrangement feature and the option to generate personalized inquiries.

Cons

There are several features that I find lacking, particularly the inability to detach rooms or areas from the system. Navigating through eight different pages to access a PM or a work order seems illogical, especially when other systems manage this on a single page. It's challenging to navigate and address issues like reprinting PMs if a batch is accidentally deleted before printing. Support hasn't been able to resolve these issues effectively.

Easy to use

Pros

Comprehensive training and ongoing support were pivotal to our successful adoption of the product. Having the trainer onsite for several days helped users become comfortable with the software, leading to widespread acceptance. The product facilitated cross-shift communication and allowed all users to track repair statuses, which was invaluable for our 24/7 facility.

Cons

The only issue we encountered was the inability to integrate MaintiMizer with our lockout tagout program.

The dashboard requires improvement, and report generation is less than ideal. Adding additional graphs to reports would enhance performance visibility.

Educational evaluation

Pros

Users are more familiar with the reporting features.

Cons

There are too many unused fields in the data entry process.

Useful software

Pros

Standard features are easily deployable and very useful.

Cons

Maintimizer problems

Pros

It resembles the software we used previously.

Cons

I've faced challenges with the software's functionality from the outset.
