Question on: UpKeep
[Is there a way to track an asset and how much is spent on it?](/discussions/13664-is-there-a-way-to-track-an-asset-and-how-much-is-spent-on-it)

I have a lot of assets that I apply my work orders to and would like to see how many work orders each one takes so I can determine whether it is worth fixing or replacing.

Hi Dylan! That's a great question and the answer is absolutely! The best maintenance teams we know constantly make the mental decision of whether to replace or repair based on the purchase price, depreciated value, and cost of repair. In UpKeep you can track warranties, purchase price, and depreciation in real time! Learn more here! https://www.onupkeep.com/asset-management-software https://www.onupkeep.com/warranty-tracking

Question on: Wasp Asset
[How do you handle surprise updates in Wasp Asset without advance notice?](/discussions/how-do-you-handle-surprise-updates-in-wasp-asset-without-advance-notice)

I like Wasp Asset’s adaptability and that the team keeps improving the software. One challenge is that updates can go live without any pre-warning, which makes it hard to prepare for changes. I also asked about reinstating an indicator in the purchase order creation page for whether an item number is inventory or non inventory. How do you manage update communication and change impacts in your workflow?

With abject surprise at having to adapt again, usually after just getting used to the previous updates!

Question on: FMX
[Is FMX only a CMMS, or does it support teams beyond maintenance?](/discussions/is-fmx-only-a-cmms-or-does-it-support-teams-beyond-maintenance)

We originally brought FMX in for our maintenance team, but other departments are starting to ask about using it too. Curious which teams outside of maintenance you've rolled FMX out to and how that's gone. Trying to figure out where the platform can stretch and where it makes more sense to keep separate tools.

FMX is a full facilities management platform with a CMMS at its core. Maintenance is where most teams start. It is rarely where they stop. Maintenance teams: Work orders, preventive maintenance, asset tracking, and parts inventory cover the full scope of reactive and planned maintenance work. Event coordinators: Staff and community members book spaces, manage event logistics, and process payments directly through FMX. Fleet teams: Vehicles get the same treatment as facility assets, with PM scheduling, mileage logging, and full repair history in one place. IT teams: Service requests and IT asset records run through the same platform used for facilities so nothing falls through the cracks of a separate system. Leadership and finance: Capital planning dashboards give directors and finance teams the data to justify budgets and plan years out. Teams that start with work orders typically add modules as they realize how much of their operation FMX can handle.
