What do you like best about Asset Essentials?

Easy to use, technical support and training was excellent. The only program we evaluated that had everything we needed. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Asset Essentials?

There are no real downsides to the program itself. We could use some assistance with implementation, and I am sure others are in the same situation. The hard part is getting people across the organization to be comfortable and start using it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Tracking the inventory of parts and materials Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Asset Essentials?

A means of tracking the progress of incoming parts would be handy. I use a spreadsheet for this purpose and the disadvantage is having to maintain two databases for the same parts. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Asset Essentials?

I wish the mobile app was more comparable to the desktop version. There are a lot of things that aren't able to be seen on the mobile app which would greatly help technicians in the field. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Keeping track of PMs and work orders combined with record keeping. Potential to grow and utilize more of the assets available. I have not used competitors. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Asset Essentials?

It is more complicated than Facility Dude, with that, I'm sure there are many improved options but they seem to be hard to learn and remember. I need a tutorial on filters and headings. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Minus the language barrier between IQMS and AE, This is very close to exactly what we're looking for"
4.5/5
What do you like best about Asset Essentials?

I feel that the best part of brightly asset essentials, for me, is the UI's ease of use. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Asset Essentials?

I only dislike how it is missing a lot of modules needed to replace IQMS. AE is similar to only a tiny section, and without having our own IT person, it doesn't auto-speak back and forth. Therefore, we are running both programs simultaneously, lacking the wanted outcome. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
