by Rebecca Walker — May 29, 2009—MicroMain Corporation, a leading provider of asset and facility management software and services, has released version 7.2 of its MicroMain Maintenance Management software. This computerized maintenance management software (CMMS) is used in more than 5,000 sites worldwide.
The new MicroMain Security Administrator improves the level of role/permissions control with a simple point-and-click interface, says the company. Administrators can import user profiles from Microsoft Active Directory or manually create new users and groups. Then they easily set up groups by role or department and determine permissions, which are color-coded for at-a-glance identification.
In addition to the Security Administrator, MicroMain Maintenance Management also includes new Work Order Archiver and Data Dictionary utilities, says MicroMain Corporation.
A new rounds functionality feature allows users to set up checkpoints and schedule security rounds. Using barcode-enabled PDAs, security or other night-duty personnel can verify that doors are secure, check that exit lights are working, or confirm condition or status of other assets.
Also new is a work order service escalation feature available as an add-on, which helps users ensure that service requests are addressed within a specified period of time.
More than 40 reports have been added to the 400-plus standard reports already available with MicroMain Maintenance Management. In addition, new filtering options allow users to generate a virtually unlimited number of reports detailing specific information and date ranges. With version 7.2, users can group report “favorites” and easily export reports to Microsoft Excel spreadsheets.
With version 7.2, MicroMain continues to provide a healthcare version of the software aimed at addressing biomedical department needs. The company also continues to make the software’s source code available at no additional charge.
MicroMain Corporation provides award-winning asset and facility management software and services to organizations worldwide.
