How the Cloud Changed Computerized Maintenance Management Systems (CMMS)
While computerized maintenance management systems (CMMS) have been around since the 1960s and went through multiple stages of transformation, cloud computing is probably the most crucial development in this software market. This is because the cloud impacts how CMMS is delivered and maintained and on the flexibility, ease of use, and adoption of the software. This post will describe these changes and provide relevant insights from 1564 reviewers of G2’s CMMS category.

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.

FMX pricing is based on your organization's size and the products you need, with different models designed for each segment FMX serves.
K-12 education: Public K-12 schools are priced based on student enrollment, with unlimited users included so your entire staff can access the platform without per-seat costs. Higher education: Priced per square footage, with a user-based option available depending on your organization's structure State and local government: Priced based on population or per user. Commercial organizations: Priced per user.
Modular products: FMX is built around a product portfolio, including Work Manager, Event Manager, Fleet Manager, IT Asset Manager, and others, so you pay for the products your team actually uses, not a bundled platform with features you do not need. Add-ons: Integrations and additional capabilities are available as optional add-ons priced separately from the core product.
