Asset Infinity
- Deployment options: Web-based, Cloud, SaaS, iOS and Android
- Supports up to 100 assets
- Predictive and preventative maintenance
At $60 per month, Asset Infinity isn’t the most affordable CMMS on our list, but it does boast a decent amount of functions. It delivers on our key criteria of collecting maintenance data, automating the scheduling process and turning the data into useful reports. Additionally, it uses a QR barcode system that lets you label each asset and then use a mobile device for easy maintenance management.
It doesn’t have a voice recognition function that lets you fully streamline your maintenance schedule, but it does feature plenty of nifty ways of improving efficiency. The software has the ability for third-party integration, you can use it to invoice suppliers, and it has strong, customizable reporting. It also allows you to manage your inventory and work orders from one place.
Pros & Cons
The Asset Infinity UI and UX are impressive, with a dashboard that shows you everything you need to know at a glance and more detailed information is easily accessible. It’s easy to set it up for your business, and you can make a variety of customized reports. That said, the preset options for reports are limited.
Pros
- Good UI, including a dashboard that offers all the important information at a glance
- Easy to set up and implement customized reports
Cons
- There could be more pre-configured options for reporting
What Customers Are Saying
Reviewers praise Asset Infinity for its ease of use, attractive user interface and the real-time value it adds to their business. One senior manager says, “This software has made a once painful annual audit of assets less painful and much easier to resolve.”

CAFM Explorer
- Preventative and predictive maintenance
- Inventory management and asset tracking
- Reporting and analytics
As a facilities management system, CAFM Explorer combines preventative maintenance, asset management and space planning into one central hub, with the capability to integrate third-party apps. It looks similar to Microsoft Outlook, so it has a familiar look and feel — and it’s easy to use. However, it doesn’t use the latest technology or include features like QR code scanning or voice recognition.
CAFM Explorer lacks the functionality to let you bill or invoice suppliers, and it doesn’t track service history. Although these features can help you make projections for the future and cut costs, it’s important to bear in mind that this is one of the most affordable providers on the list. You pay $2,000 as a one-off payment and have indefinite access to the software and updates.
Pros & Cons
One of the most attractive aspects of CAFM Explorer is the price — you can plan maintenance, track assets, book resources and create custom reports for a paltry sum. However, there’s no out-of-hours support, and it lacks some of the impressive features that more expensive software offers.
Pros
- One off payment
- Excellent preset and customizable reports
Cons
- There's no option for out of hours support
- No service history tracking
What Customers Are Saying
On the whole, customers are complimentary about CAFM Explorer and its performance as a computerized way of organizing maintenance and inventory. One operations manager comments, “We have been using the CAFM since few years back and has really benefited our daily operations.”

Pros & Cons
iMaint is easy to use. It lets you print detailed work orders and instructions and captures KPIs critical to reducing costs and downtime.

- Easy to setup and use
Cons
- Setting up repeated PMs is a complicated process

Operators can organize and monitor work orders, emergencies, spare parts, automated schedules, technicians, providers and equipment.

Although it doesn’t feature a voice recognition feature, it does have pretty much every other feature we’d expect to see in a comprehensive CMMS solution for small- to medium-sized business operators. It allows you to implement preventative and predictive maintenance schedules with automated task delegation.
Pros & Cons
Fracttal is one of the costliest CMMS providers on our list, but it has an excellent support team and a bundle of useful features that can truly help you save money and reduce downtime. The setup process is highly involved, and it can be difficult to set parameters for more complex workflows.

Hippo provides a graphic overview of the entire operation and its maintenance needs. It includes data-driven lists to view real-time maintenance information. This lets small- to medium-sized businesses optimize workflows and plan resources based on an automated and easy to follow system. One of its downsides, if you’re looking for open software, is its inability to integrate with third-party apps.
At under $40 per month, it’s one of the most affordable and functional options of our list — and it lets you take a test run with a free trial period. Its reporting capabilities feature plenty of customizable options, and it has voice recognition and QR code scanning capabilities. While it doesn’t allow predictive upkeep, it does let you create a preventative maintenance schedule based on critical insights.
Pros & Cons
Hippo is a slick platform that’s easy to learn and use. It lets you run individual reports for every item of equipment and has a QR scanner and voice recognition for an affordable price. On the other hand, it doesn’t show replenishment history or allow for a hierarchy relationship between work orders.
Pros
- Lets you run individual reports for each asset

Maintenance Care
- Unlimited number of users
- QR barcode reader and voice recognition
- Predictive and preventative maintenance scheduling
Maintenance Care is a CMMS designed for a broad range of industries, including education, manufacturing, hospitality, property management and pretty much any small business. There is a free version that lets you use certain features at no cost, but it lacks many of the reporting and analytical capabilities of the paid version. It includes a desktop and mobile app, with high-tech solutions such as QR code scanning and voice recognition.
Predictive maintenance uses data to predict exactly when assets require maintenance or repairs instead of relying on a simple time system. Additionally, service history tracking lets you analyze whether your current strategies are working or if you need to upgrade to more efficient tools. You can connect Maintenance Care up to third-party apps, send invoices and manage work orders.
Pros & Cons
Maintenance Care’s work order system is easy to set up and use — and it’s not hard to teach others how to use it. If you have any issues, customer support is quick to respond. That said, the design is unrefined compared to other software and certain forms would have more flexible parameters.
Pros
- Work order system is easy to set up, deploy and use
- Good training support and customer care
Cons
- Its maintenance request submission form could be more flexible
What Customers Are Saying
Customers are impressed with the smooth transition from bulky, inconvenient paperwork over to a more user-friendly and environmentally friendly way of managing maintenance.

Pros & Cons
Maxpanda is good value for money, with a broad range of features, affordable monthly price and a hefty trial period. It’s a powerful yet easy-to-use platform with regular updates that improve the platform. On the other hand, it doesn’t support voice recognition and the software can be "glitchy" at times.

The aim of the MEX CMMS package is to reduce downtime, improve operational efficiency and increase productivity and compliance across all departments. It’s a web-based tool that works on most devices, so managers can access the information they need to see from any location. It’s a fully customizable system that lets operators make decisions based on key KPIs. Unlike some of the other software providers on our list, it doesn’t support third-party integration.
Unfortunately, its finance module isn’t particularly attractive, so the excellent price does mean missing out on some of the benefits of more premium offerings. That said, it does create useful, actionable reports and inventory and work order management. Additionally, you can schedule maintenance based on timing and predictive data. Service history tracking and asset tracking mean that it’s definitely worth the small amount you’ll pay for it.
Pros & Cons
MEX is good because it lets you make a one-time payment to use the software forever. This makes it one of the most affordable options on the list — but it does lack third-party integrations.

Pros
- A one-time payment for unlimited use of the software
- Easy to use and makes workflows, ordering and maintenance seamless
Cons
- The billing and invoicing is rudimentary
