by Ann Withanee — November 22, 2010—Ashcom Technologies, Inc., announces the launch of MaintiMizer BlackBox, a plug and play version of its popular MaintiMizer Web-based computerized maintenance management system (CMMS).
MaintiMizer BlackBox takes up less space on the desk than a standard lunch box, says the company, yet helps get maintenance costs under control, while improving quality and increasing productivity. Users can choose to connect the self-contained unit to the network and/or to the Internet via hard-wired Ethernet cable or wirelessly.
The simplicity of the system eliminates the need to have an IT specialist on site, and if help is needed, the user can turn to Ashcom’s technical support specialists. MaintiMizer BlackBox comes with MaintiMizer, Microsoft SQL Express, Web server pre-installed and pre-configured and features a redundant hard drive and built-in backup to a USB memory stick.
MaintiMizer BlackBox has all the functionality of the MaintiMizer Web-based CMMS, including work order, preventive maintenance and equipment, inventory, vendor and purchase order, timecard, and utility modules. Each module opens to a dashboard screen, allowing users to see critical information at a glance. All MaintiMizer systems are designed to be easy to learn and easy to use, even for people with little or no computer experience.
