### How the Cloud Changed Computerized Maintenance Management Systems (CMMS)
](https://www.g2.com/articles/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.

[Top tools for predictive maintenance in asset management?](/discussions/top-tools-for-predictive-maintenance-in-asset-management)

Hi G2 fam,

I’m helping a few reliability and engineering teams explore predictive maintenance instead of reacting to failures after the fact. I reviewed G2 data in the[](https://www.g2.com/categories/enterprise-asset-management-eam)[**Enterprise Asset Management (EAM)**](https://www.g2.com/categories/enterprise-asset-management-eam) category to identify platforms most often used for predictive and condition-based maintenance strategies. Sharing this list here and hoping to hear what’s actually delivering value. Here are the top tools:

1. [**IBM Maximo Application Suite**](https://www.g2.com/products/ibm-maximo-application-suite/reviews) — Best for predictive maintenance at scale using advanced analytics and asset data.
2. [**MaintainX**](https://www.g2.com/products/maintainx/reviews) — Best for transitioning from reactive to predictive maintenance with modern tooling.
3. [**SAP S/4HANA Cloud**](https://www.g2.com/products/sap-s-4hana-cloud/reviews) — Best for predictive maintenance tied into enterprise planning and operations.
4. [**Fiix CMMS**](https://www.g2.com/products/fiix-cmms/reviews) — Best for condition-based maintenance without heavy data science overhead.
5. [**UpKeep**](https://www.g2.com/products/upkeep/reviews) — Best for early predictive maintenance efforts in smaller or growing teams.

Anyone using these for predictive maintenance today? What’s been your experience moving away from reactive work?

What held you back most from predictive maintenance — data quality, sensors, tooling, or change management?

[Top EAM tools for compliance with safety regulations?](/discussions/top-eam-tools-for-compliance-with-safety-regulations)

Hello all,

I’m researching on EAM software to support safety compliance and audit readiness. To help shortlist options, I reviewed G2 standings in the[](https://www.g2.com/categories/enterprise-asset-management-eam)[**Enterprise Asset Management (EAM)**](https://www.g2.com/categories/enterprise-asset-management-eam) category and focused on tools commonly used in regulated environments. Sharing here so others tackling compliance-heavy requirements can compare notes.

Here are the top tools:

1. [**IBM Maximo Application Suite**](https://www.g2.com/products/ibm-maximo-application-suite/reviews) — Best for enforcing safety and compliance standards across enterprise assets.
2. [**MaintainX**](https://www.g2.com/products/maintainx/reviews) — Best for digitizing safety procedures and inspections at the frontline level.
3. [**SAP S/4HANA Cloud**](https://www.g2.com/products/sap-s-4hana-cloud/reviews) — Best for compliance workflows tied into enterprise governance systems.
4. [**Fiix CMMS**](https://www.g2.com/products/fiix-cmms/reviews) — Best for maintenance-driven compliance and audit preparation.
5. [**UpKeep**](https://www.g2.com/products/upkeep/reviews) — Best for teams that need simple, repeatable safety checks and documentation.

Anyone using one of these primarily for safety or regulatory compliance? How audit-friendly has it been?

During audits, what do inspectors ask for most — maintenance history, inspection logs, or proof of corrective actions?

[Best tools for asset performance analytics?](/discussions/best-tools-for-asset-performance-analytics)

Hello all,

I’m working with reliability and operations teams who want better insight into how assets are actually performing over time — not just whether work orders get closed. I looked at G2 data in the[](https://www.g2.com/categories/enterprise-asset-management-eam)[**Enterprise Asset Management (EAM)**](https://www.g2.com/categories/enterprise-asset-management-eam) category to see which platforms stand out for performance analytics. Sharing this list here to help others benchmarking the same tools. Here are the top tools:

1. [**IBM Maximo Application Suite**](https://www.g2.com/products/ibm-maximo-application-suite/reviews) — Best for deep asset performance analytics across large asset portfolios.
2. [**MaintainX**](https://www.g2.com/products/maintainx/reviews) — Best for clear, actionable performance insights that frontline teams can use.
3. [**SAP S/4HANA Cloud**](https://www.g2.com/products/sap-s-4hana-cloud/reviews) — Best for performance analytics connected to financial and operational data.
4. [**Fiix CMMS**](https://www.g2.com/products/fiix-cmms/reviews) — Best for tracking asset KPIs without overwhelming users with complexity.
5. [**UpKeep**](https://www.g2.com/products/upkeep/reviews) — Best for straightforward performance reporting in maintenance-focused teams.

Anyone relying on these tools for asset performance analytics? What metrics actually matter most for you? Any other tools you recommend?

Which KPIs do you trust more — asset uptime, MTBF, maintenance cost, or production impact?
