FMS Workplace- 2024

Verified reviewer

What they liked
  • FMS Workplace has been so beneficial to our company
  • We use the platform to submit office moves, schedule preventative maintenance, track assets, and lease agreements
  • It is easy to use and a great tool for all of these items
Room for improvement

Switched From

It did not have the needed features, such as asset and real estate tracking.

Why they chose it

"Did not support what we were looking for and the features did not seem as streamlined."

FMS Workplace

I have been disabled with the support. A change was made to the system a couple of months ago and they FMS support can't seem to fix the problem. Currently as the system right now I would not recommend.

What they liked
  • I don't have any Pros about the system
  • It does just enough to get by, but it works slow
  • I might would not be so disappointed if it was not so slow to use
Room for improvement
  • It is very slow
  • It is frustrating trying to even assign work as it takes so long for changes to be made
  • Saves can take as long as 15-20 seconds and even longer at times
  • It has a very old feel of an interface
  • There are way to many fields that are not needed that make the interface take up the entire page
  • It is not customizable
  • Reports can not be customized by the administrator
  • Yes you can export but even then if you choose export it exports the entire page of data instead of a way to select
  • The only reason the product was chosen was because of space planning part and it included the maintenance part and it was the product at their previous location
  • It was selected by someone who had never used maintenance specific system
  • But that individual also was told that system was administrator customizable such as required fields etc

We have also streamlined our state reporting submission process making it more effective and efficient, and allows us to dedicate more time to other needs and areas of improvement.

What they liked

  • Native integration with AutoDesk makes the integration process with facility floor plans smart and seamless
Room for improvement

Would like to see integration expand and grow into site level plans that allow for the big picture to be displayed and visualized

Why they chose it

"User Interface. Highly configurable for non-technical administrative and functional users. Native integration with AutoDesk."

Room for improvement

Easy to use, great for our Facilities team when planning space and moves.

What they liked
  • FMS:Workplace is an amazing tool which helps us best plan our space

Room for improvement

FM Interact

Overall, technical support is great but the cost for support is ridiculous. Support is not always willing to help with upgrades and patches.

What they liked
  • AutoCAD Integration is seamless
  • Floor Plan viewing is easy
Room for improvement
  • Reporting is difficult to set up
  • You almost need a coding background
  • They are not beginner level friendly Tables are confusing to navigate which, Example naming of Items in A0, N0 tables and what items corespond to one another
  • Lack of tutorials
