Asset Essentials

Pros: Centralized Asset Tracking & Visibility Keeps all my physical assets Ex. equipment, facilities, infrastructure) in one place with detailed records of location, condition, and maintenance history and managements it in place..

Cons: I did not has any experience in particulars issues on this app. with the least like, most of them are powerfully except, we need some more gramma checking during we typing words in this system.

Pros: Ease of data entry including customizing. Once trained personnel have an easier time communicating with Customer support to resolve issues faster. It's value has shown just in how our work days have been more efficient. The Web interface has a very easy to use and assign.

Cons: lack of options on the mobile app. Mobil app logouts on Iphone that lead to issues logging in in the morning

Pros: The ability to keep track of issues and parts for our machines. Can easily see how often these issues occur and how often parts are used.

Cons: Easier to use on the laptop than the phone. Sometimes with the small phone screen it is just quicker to find things or see it on the laptop.

Pros: It's very easy to modify. It has been easy to set up 'views' for different areas to use. Setting up crews is also very easy and makes assigning work easy within a department.

Cons: It's no longer designed just for education so we needed to do a lot of adjusting to make it work for our needs. The reporting and analytics needs work. The adding of labor is more cumbersome than it should be. The security of the 'reporting' feature is not able to be locked down to allow nurses to use it for what we need.

Pros: How it communicates with itself. When putting in work orders in it can create an accurate picture of the cost and effort to maintain things around the city

Cons: building it out, the person who chose Brightly for us didn't do a good job deciding how to roll it out, so now we're inputting assets, locations, and parts one by one. I don't feel like the training in brightly academy was detailed enough; it was more about what the software could do, and less about how to set up those configurations. Wish there was more GIS integration

Pros: I like that I get to run reports based off of different departments and I even got to break down the reports with details.

Cons: I haven't found anything not to like yet, I keep finding new ways to make my job easier as the Administrative Assistant in my department.

Pros: What i like most about asset essentials is that I can look at my pm's and add to them if need be. I can also keep up with my work orders.

Cons: Its not very user friendly for me anyways. It has taken me some time to get comfortable using it and I know it has alot more features I haven't used yet.

Pros: I like the ability to get notices when the status of my work order is either closed or changed with notes and updates to the status of the repair.

Cons: Sometimes our techs will close a work order without putting notes on it. Then I have to track them down to find out the outcome or the next step. I think the comments section should be a mandatory box to fill.

Pros: I like the fact it is extremely customizable; I have built our system from the ground up and so far, anything that anyone has need it to do, I was able to build a workflow to accomplish the task. We use SSO so security is tight. We are a medium size school system and compared to other application we use the value for is on point. We use this system for all work ordered and asset management, we live and die by it, It always works and if I do have an issue support is timely into looking into the issue and finding a resolution.

Cons: The biggest issue we have is it doesn't offer text message notifications for work orders. The notifications with email are ok, but text messages are much easier.

Pros: What is the best way to proven to the employer that I am actually working day in and day out? With Assets Essentials app or web based allows me to do just that! I loved!

Cons: AI incorporates with grammars, vocabulary, or better yet with sentences improving that would be great.perhaps that would be something in the future Assets Essentials looking for better way to improve her working orders platform.

Pros: Two years ago, the support was great. Now, it sucks. Over promise and under deliver. School Dude was better.

Cons: Poor support. Cannot use this software across all platforms unless you jump through hoops. The company makes you feel like you work for them and not them working for you.

Pros: I Like that it is very user Friendly and easy to navigate through is screens to go were you want to.

Cons: I need to learn more on how to do a forecast to be able to see what needs to be done in two weeks as well further into so I can plan the work for my Techs.

Pros: Ease of fleet management. Customer support is great and very helpful. Communication is very accessible with email, phone or the help pages.

Cons: Entering and deleting users. Sometimes we have the need to deleting a user from several areas, it is hard to find and figure what areas a person is associated with if you are not the person who originally enter that person into the system.

Pros: I love the ability to access all pertinent information on a work order so easily. After we got all the assets built it went pretty smoothly.

Cons: It is a lot to put in all the information. But.... once we got the infrastructure built it is so easy to use. I also struggle a bit with the app version in making sure I do not have filters set.

Pros: its ability to help our center track and assign work orders, which is helpful for our maintenance requests because of the large center.

Cons: problems with filtering work orders, difficulty copying and pasting in text boxes, and issues with file attachments.

Pros: Very comprehensive capabilities. Lots of configuration available. Mobile solution is very good- better interface than desktop.

Cons: Interface needs updating/refresh. Cost is average- other options are cheaper depending on specific needs.

Pros: It was a good product for the work order needs we had. It helped keep work orders organized and offered great reporting options. The data from the reports was and is still superior to other products out there.

Cons: The mobile aspect was not what we were looking for or needing to support the amount of staff and volume that we have.

Pros: Easy to get data and customer support is awesome!

Cons: Nothing...works very well! Easy to navigate, very powerful

Pros: Ability to manage assets all in one place.

Cons: The mobile "app" needs some work to make it easier to use. I wish it was a real app and not just a website link.

Pros: The implementation was very quick and easy. The team was very knowledgeable and explained everything throughout the entire process. It is very user friendly and has all the functions we need at an affordable price.

Cons: Limited viewing capabilities for users that can only submit maintenance requests, Free users.

Pros: Asset Essentials continues to improve the ease of use and output of the data, proving to be an excellent resource for the organization and for the Facilities Management Managers and Staff.

Cons: Brightly continues to work with Clients' use and understanding of Asset Essentials and this is a process. Learning improved ways of working with a product can initially be awkward, but once users become more familiar and comfortable with the how it works, it becomes more automatic.

Pros: Getting the job done! Makes work much more worthy.

Cons: Time wait for process. Having the communication for help is a winner.
