By understanding the capabilities of facility management (FM) and computerized maintenance management software (CMMS), managers can utilize their resources efficiently and ensure effective long-term performance. In today’s business environment, due to various advantages, the need for facility management or CMMS software is increasing each day. Maintaining and keeping track of assets and resources requires plenty of effort and human resources. Using a CMMS or facility management software makes the process a lot easier.

Defining Facility Management Software

CloudApper’s Facility Management and CMMS is a web and a mobile-based dashboard that enables organizations to streamline their complete maintenance and repair program and manage their assets efficiently. It helps organizations to streamline their work order processes and reduce the overall space and maintenance costs.

The difference between the two is that the Facility Manager only focuses on work facilities, assets, and maintenance management, while CMMS, in addition to asset management, also focuses on maintenance scheduling, inventory management, work order routing, and reporting.
