Let’s discuss SaaS for facilities management. When it comes to facilities management software, you have a myriad of choices. Today, we will explore the benefits of utilizing Facility Management Gear (FM Gear) SaaS for your facility.

Let’s Talk Some SaaS

Is an FM Gear SaaS solution the right choice for managing the built environment at your facility? When faced with the decision between a hosted solution and a facilities management SaaS product, there are several factors to take into account. Allow us, at ICB1, to shed light on the advantages of using a SaaS solution as your facilities management software.

Top  4 Reasons Why Your Investment in FM Gear Software Makes Sense

Cost:

Let’s begin by examining the financial aspect. We are all aware of the budget constraints that come with making IT infrastructure decisions. Unfortunately, the Facilities department often receives the least amount of resources. In this era of diminishing facilities and budgets, it is crucial to prioritize IT resources that focus on Work From Home (WFH) programs. Cost and ease of use become crucial factors when selecting FM software.

Now, let’s consider the cost comparison between a SaaS product and a locally hosted solution. A SaaS solution is appealing due to its low upfront cost. It follows a consumption-based licensing model, ensuring minimal initial expenses. Additionally, the intuitive software design enables users to quickly utilize the product, resulting in a higher return on their software investment.

ICB1: Cost

Ease of implementation and use:

SaaS software frees your internal IT team to pursue their departmental goals rather than relegating them to serve as a support system for your FM software platform and security infrastructure. Instead of spending employee time on compliance with tracking software updates and licenses, your solution provider takes care of this for you.

SaaS hosts tend to the maintenance and upkeep of your software. Your host pushes out the updates transparently for you, and these updates are available at no additional cost to your organization. You can rest easy knowing that you’ll always run the most recent version of your facility’s software with ease.

 

Mobile Options:

ICB1 offers mobile options that eliminate the need for platform-specific versions. Our SaaS software is compatible with multiple platforms, freeing your employees from being tied down to desktops or specific tech manufacturers. Say goodbye to perpetual security patches with our mobile software. In addition, staff can easily update their data using their connected mobile devices, saving countless work hours by eliminating paperwork and trips to the office. Our platform-agnostic software only requires a web browser, ensuring seamless access from any device.

Reliability and Security:

Offering backup options and continual availability, find peace of mind with a SaaS solution. FM Gear’s high-quality on-demand solutions handle configuration management, deploy patches, fixes, and new releases. Many on-demand solutions provide a high availability level, with centrally managed hardware, software, data, performance monitoring, and failover following established Service Level Agreements (SLAs).
