The ease of use and technology alignment with Salesforce CRM allowed us to deploy SaaSMaint CMMS very rapidly, said David Lafferty, chief information officer, Tidewell Hospice. Leveraging SaaSMaint CMMS / EAM on the AppExchange gave us enterprise-wide visibility to all of our assets and work orders.
