Hello NAVUG,

We are in the process of selecting a CMMS that can be integrated with NAV. We're considering TAG but wanted to seek real-life experience and feedback on this program. However, if anyone has experience with a different CMMS please share as well.

We are looking for a CMMS that can handle:
- Internal and 3rd party work orders on fleet equipment
- KPI reporting by units by period
- Maintenance planning
- Mobile solution with Mechanics (tablet, cellphone)

Please share your experience in the thread and appreciate your help!

Thank you!

Hi Louis

We use Dynamics NAV Asset Maintenance Add-On (Tectura) and it has served us pretty well. However, we use the software to manage our plant equipment, not fleet equipment.

Should handle the first 3 items on your list, but not the mobile solution with Mechanics. Will probably need customization on top of the standard add-on for the mobile solution.

Which version of NAV are you using?

Hi Louis

Thanks Ron. This is an interesting comment. Are there any other CMMS that you have seen that would work with NAV at the same time fulfill our requirement?

Appreciate your time and insight!!

We are helping one of our clients implement Tag. They bought directly from Tag. It's been a bit of a grind. Their technical staff don't seem to know NAV very well and we've had to do some explaining and fixing.  Not implemented yet.

Hi Louis, this thread is over a year old and I'm curious what CMMS you went with?

I am in the midst of looking for a replacement of our existing CMMS within NAV -> TAG
