## Reviews

### "Asset Essentials gives great reporting data" — 4.0/5

> **Brandi** | *10 June 2025* | Education Management | Recommendation rating: 7.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: It was a good product for the work order needs we had.  It helped keep work orders organized and offered great reporting options. The data from the reports was and is still superior to other products out there.
> 
> **Cons**: The mobile aspect was not what we were looking for or needing to support the amount of staff and volume that we have.
> 
> We used the software for around a year, which was an upgrade from a previous version of software we had with the same company.

-----

### "The perfect App" — 5.0/5

> **Donitra** | *3 March 2026* | Facilities Services | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: I like that I get to run reports based off of different departments and I even got to break down the reports with details.
> 
> **Cons**: I haven't found anything not to like yet, I keep finding new ways to make my job easier as the Administrative Assistant in my department.
> 
> My overall experience with Asset Essentials has been a 10/10, it has made running reports so easy for me and I even get to show other coworkers how to run their own reports as well, which makes things easier for me.

-----

### "Do not renew with Asset Essentials" — 1.0/5

> **Mathew** | *2 October 2025* | Education Management | Recommendation rating: 0.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Two years ago, the support was great. Now, it sucks. Over promise and under deliver. School Dude was better.
> 
> **Cons**: Poor support. Cannot use this software across all platforms unless you jump through hoops. The company makes you feel like you work for them and not them working for you.
> 
> It's a joke. Multiple days without access to the system because of their technicians. What good is a work order system that we cannot put work orders into?

-----

### "Maintenance Manager" — 5.0/5

> **Bill** | *29 September 2025* | Food Production | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: I Like that it is very user Friendly and easy to navigate through is screens to go were you want to.
> 
> **Cons**: I need to learn more on how to do a forecast to be able to see what needs to be done in two weeks as well further into so I can plan the work for my Techs.
> 
> I have used SAP, Tabware, and several others over the years, and Brightly is a good program for a Small Business

-----

### "Highly recommend" — 4.0/5

> **Michael** | *11 December 2024* | Chemicals | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: The implementation was very quick and easy.  The team was very knowledgeable and explained everything throughout the entire process.  It is very user friendly and has all the functions we need at an affordable price.
> 
> **Cons**: Limited viewing capabilities for users that can only submit maintenance requests, Free users.
> 
> It is very good software.  We do not have any issues with it.  The help sections are useful and and issues requiring support were handled in a timely manner.
