What it does

From the first fault to fewer of them

Start with a list of your equipment and the request board. Plans, checklists, parts and costs follow when you are ready.

Equipment

Everything you look after, in one list

Machines, tools, vehicles, computers and buildings with their category, location, model, serial number, vendor, warranty and the person or department using them. Parts of a machine can be looked after on their own. Each piece shows its requests, cost to date, downtime, mean time between failures and when the next failure is likely.

  • Locations as a tree: site, building, floor, room
  • Owner from HR: an employee or a department
  • Documents, manuals and photos
  • Import from a spreadsheet
On every plan
Requests

Every repair on a board, a list and a calendar

Drag a request from New to In progress to Repaired. Each one has its priority, team, technician, schedule and how long it takes. Say the machine stopped and the downtime is counted until it runs again. Add your own stages such as "Waiting for parts", and hold a Manufacturing work centre while the work is done so production plans around it.

  • Board, list and calendar views
  • Downtime from the stop to the restart
  • Photos, files, notes and history
  • Your calendar in Google, Outlook or Apple
On every plan
Preventive maintenance

Service before it breaks

Plan oil changes, inspections and calibrations every so many days or months, every so many hours run, km or cycles - or both, whichever comes first. The request is made by itself, a few days early if you like, with its checklist, instructions and spare parts. A plan waits while its last request is open, so work never piles up.

  • By date, by meter or both
  • Readings typed, imported, from Fleet or from your machines
  • Checklists with pass / fail, numbers and sign-off
  • Upcoming work on the calendar
By date on every plan; by meter and checklists from Standard
Request page and QR labels

Anyone can report a fault in ten seconds

Print a QR label for each machine. Whoever spots a problem scans it, says what is wrong, adds a photo and sends it - no sign-in, no app to install. The request lands on your board for that machine, and the person is told when it is fixed. Technicians without a sign-in get their jobs on their phone by a private link.

  • QR labels on plain or sticker paper
  • Photo and "it has stopped" on the form
  • The reporter follows their request
  • Technicians and contractors by private link
On every plan
Parts and costs

What each repair really costs

Spare parts are items from your stock: they leave stock when the request is finished. Time worked is costed at each person's rate - from their salary in Ellibo HR when it is there. Add a repairer's bill and put it in your books as a journal, on account or paid in cash, by hand or by itself. Reports show cost by equipment, category and team, downtime, MTBF, MTTR and preventive work done on time.

  • Parts from Inventory, stock checked
  • Labour at each person's cost
  • Outside costs as journals in your books
  • Reports and downloads

Questions people ask

What is Ellibo Maintenance?

It is maintenance management software (a CMMS): a list of everything your team looks after, repair requests on a board, a list and a calendar, preventive maintenance by date or by meter, checklists, spare parts from your stock, labour and outside costs, downtime and reliability figures. It shares its equipment and requests with Ellibo Manufacturing, and works with Inventory, Accounting, HR, Fleet, Helpdesk and your other Ellibo apps.

Is there a free plan?

Yes. The Free plan covers 2 users and 25 pieces of equipment, with requests on a board and a calendar, preventive maintenance by date, and the request page with QR labels - for as long as you like. Every new business also gets a 14-day trial of every feature, with no card.

Do the people who report faults need a sign-in?

No. Share the request page link, or stick a QR label on a machine: anyone scans it, says what is wrong, adds a photo and gets told when it is fixed. People you give the Requester role sign in to follow their own requests, and they are free - they don't count as users of your plan.

How does preventive maintenance work?

Set a plan on a piece of equipment: every so many days, weeks, months or years, every so many hours run, km or cycles, or both - whichever comes first. The request is made by itself on time, with its checklist, instructions and spare parts. Meter readings can be typed in, imported from a spreadsheet, read from Fleet's odometer or sent by your machines through the API.

Can technicians work without a sign-in?

Yes. Add shop-floor staff or an outside contractor as a technician without a sign-in. They get an email with a private link to their jobs, where they start the work, fill in the checklist, log their time, add photos and finish the job - from their phone.

How are spare parts and costs handled?

Spare parts are items from your stock. They leave stock when the request is finished, and come back if it is opened again. Time worked is costed at each person's cost an hour (from Ellibo HR when it is there). A repairer's bill can be put in your books as a journal, by hand or by itself, from Professional.

I already use Ellibo Manufacturing. What happens to its maintenance?

Nothing is lost: Maintenance and Manufacturing use the same equipment, requests, teams and categories. You keep working in Manufacturing's own screens, and Maintenance adds plans by meter, checklists, parts, costs, the request page and reports on top.

What does it cost, and what happens after the trial?

Standard is $6 a user a month before tax, Professional is $12 and Business is $20. Requesters are free. A year costs the same as 10 months. After the 14-day trial you move to the Free plan or the plan you choose. Nothing is deleted.
