Reviews of AiM
AiM has impressive capabilities and a difficult front end.
Comments: Excellent asset and work order management.
Pros:
What I like most is the detail I can go into regarding work orders. The amount of filtering and searching you can do is impressive. Setting up queries allows me to automatically see what work is pending for a given day and helps me manage products and keep my employees accountable.
Cons:
The biggest challenge is learning to use it initially. The UI is not very intuitive and even when things are explained to me, I often have a hard time recreating it later.
User frendly
Comments:
Keeping track of work orders and work in progress and completed.
Very easy to look up old requests and sub divide categories
Pros:
Very easy to use (after using system for 1-2 weeks)
Cons:
It take everyone 1-2 weeks to get used to a new system if they had an old system. The change can be hard for some people
AIM is a fully functional CMMS with plenty of features and add-ons to fit large organizations
Comments: This is a strong CMMS software that meets all the core requirements for a maintenance organization.
Pros:
AIM is a strong piece of software capable or organizing large quantities of maintenance and construction related activities into a single system. It has many additional modules that can help with growing organizations, or can be added later as organizations become more data-driven. Assetworks provides reasonable customer service and is willing to host the server if needed.
Cons:
The system feels a little klunky and most new users take a while to figure our how to navigate the system. Some of additional modules seem a little expensive for the value they bring. The nomanclature within the back-end of the system can be confusing but IT people will catch on quickly as the database is organized fairly well.
Not worth the money
Pros:
Could do almost anything that I needed as a facility director.
Cons:
Way too many clicking! Had to click and check off too many steps in order to complete and close a work order. VERY expensive and not worth the money.
