AndroidiPhone & iPadWeb+1Before you choose
Start with work orders
Check how a tool handles work order intake, assignment and status changes. Match those functions to the way your department routes maintenance jobs.
Review asset records
Asset management keeps equipment and infrastructure records with maintenance work. Confirm that the tool covers the asset types and fields your staff needs.
Compare permits and maps
Permits and inspections can sit beside GIS mapping in a public works workflow. Look for coverage that fits your inspection process and map-based planning.
Plan public and field access
A citizen request portal gives residents a way to submit service issues. When weighing tools, see whether crews can work off-site with a mobile field app.
Check cost and platform fit
Assetas shows a freemium plan, with paid access starting at $60 per user per month on an annual term. eWorkOrders starts at $380 per month, and CityOps at $4,160 per month; prices for the remaining tools are available on request.
Confirm platform support before choosing. Depending on the product, access may be through web, Android, iOS, Windows or an API.
