Take advantage of this opportunity. Below are five questions you should ask in every CMMS demo. 1. Will the Software Meet Our Needs? Before you\u2019ve made it to the demo process, you\u2019ve probably made a list of your pain points and \u201cmust have\u201d features. Here\u2019s your chance to get specific with vendors.

CMMS software that is never used is wasted money and time. Involve all the stakeholders early in the process and include key users in the demos so they can see it firsthand.
