> # Best maintenance management software (CMMS) for facilities teams
> 
> Here's who I'd actually name, roughly in the order I'd suggest you look at them:
> 
> **1. Limble CMMS** - My default recommendation for most mid-size facilities teams. It consistently rates highest on G2 (~4.8 stars across 690+ reviews), and the reason is boring but important: techs actually use it. Fast implementation, strong mobile app, good asset-lifecycle and reporting depth as you grow. The known gripe is you can't attach multiple assets to one work order.
> 
> **2. MaintainX** - Pick this if your crew lives on phones and you need adoption *this month*. It's the easiest to roll out to a non-technical workforce, strong on work orders, checklists, and team messaging. Shallower on deep asset hierarchies and heavy reporting than Limble or eMaint.
> 
> **3. FMX** - The one I'd name first specifically for schools, universities, municipalities, and churches. Built around facility requests plus scheduling/room booking, which is the actual job in those buildings. Around $35/user/month, but quote-based in practice.
> 
> **4. Brightly Asset Essentials (Siemens)** - Strongest fit for public sector and large multi-building portfolios wit
