MaintainX
MaintainX is an affordable mobile-first work order app for SMB manufacturers and quick-deploy maintenance, free tier available, San Francisco HQ.
Overview
MaintainX is one of the newer mobile-first CMMS entrants, competing with UpKeep, Limble, and Fiix at the SMB-to-mid-market tier. The product launched in 2018 with a heavy focus on mobile work orders, visual checklists, and rapid deployment — designed for maintenance teams that want to be productive on day one rather than running a multi-month CMMS implementation.
Pricing
MaintainX runs a free tier with paid plans starting at $16 per user per month — among the most affordable in the category. The free tier covers basic work order management, with paid plans adding preventive maintenance, asset tracking, and integrations.
