Atlas CMMS

Atlas CMMS is maintenance software for teams coordinating equipment upkeep and compliance across work orders, assets, and parts. It suits organizations that need flexible deployment and substantial room to grow their asset records. Its main trade-off is that useful operational tools are spread across per-user paid tiers, while the 15-day trial is for internal evaluation only.

Overview

Atlas brings work orders, preventive schedules, equipment records, and inventory into one maintenance system. Teams can use it as a cloud service, self-host it, or choose a hybrid deployment. The product is described as open source under AGPLv3, with a commercial license for white labeling, custom branding, and advanced features; organizations planning modifications or branded deployments should account for that distinction.

Key features

Work orders, schedules, and assets

Teams can create, assign, prioritize, and track work orders, preventive maintenance, and service requests. Schedules can recur daily, weekly, monthly, or yearly, or respond to events and meter readings, giving maintenance teams options beyond calendar-based servicing. Asset records support custom fields, parent-to-child hierarchies, QR codes, maintenance logs, and sensor connectivity, across a stated range of 10 to 1,000,000 assets. That scale is useful for organizations expecting their equipment register to grow, though the range alone does not establish which plan fits a particular deployment.

Inventory and mobile work

Parts tools cover low-stock notifications, automatic usage tracking, barcode lookup, cost reporting, and usage forecasting. These can help connect parts consumption with maintenance activity, but inventory management begins with Starter rather than the free Basic plan. The iOS and Android apps let technicians see assigned work, start work orders, receive notifications, and look up asset information. Offline mobile mode is reserved for Professional, an important distinction for teams that need technicians to work without connectivity.

Integrations, security, and support

The project README lists Google Maps integration and configuration options for Google Maps, Google Cloud Storage, SMTP, SendGrid, and Google or Microsoft OAuth2. The privacy policy says data at rest is encrypted with AES-256 and data in transit with TLS 1.3; it also describes documented incident response procedures with a 72-hour notification timeline. Atlas says it does not sell personal information and identifies Cloudflare, Netlify, and Google as service providers. Standard support is by email during business hours with a 24-hour response time, while cloud deployments carry a 99.9% monthly uptime commitment.

Pricing

Basic is free and includes unlimited work orders, custom tasks, unlimited Request User Licenses, and asset management. It is a practical starting point for teams focused on work orders and records, but excludes inventory management, time and manpower tracking, and the 30-day analytics and reporting included in Starter.

Starter costs $10 a month, billed $10 /month per user. It adds custom checklists, inventory management and costing, time and manpower tracking, and 30 day Analytics & Reporting. This is the entry paid tier for teams that need parts and labor tracking. Professional costs $15 a month, billed $15 /month per user, and adds multiple inventory lines, signatures, a customizable request portal, and mobile offline mode. It suits teams needing those controls, but costs more per seat.

Business costs $40 a month, billed $40 /month per user. It adds workflow automation, purchase order management, multi-site module support, and API access, making it the tier for organizations that need purchasing, automation, or multi-site support. The 15-day trial is restricted to internal evaluation and cannot be used for production or commercial purposes, so it is not a substitute for a live pilot.

Platforms

Atlas supports Android, iOS, web, API, and self-hosted use. Its mobile apps cover technician-facing work, while self-hosting and hybrid deployment give organizations alternatives to cloud-only operation.

Who it's for

Atlas is a strong candidate for maintenance teams that want work orders and asset records together, need preventive schedules tied to meters or events, or value self-hosted and hybrid deployment. It is less suitable for teams expecting a production trial before committing, or those that need inventory and labor tracking without a per-user paid plan.

Pros and cons

• Pros: Flexible daily-to-meter-based maintenance schedules suit varied servicing routines.
• Pros: Asset records span 10 to 1,000,000 assets and include hierarchies, QR codes, and sensor connectivity.
• Pros: Cloud, self-hosted, and hybrid deployment options accommodate different operating preferences.
• Cons: Inventory management and time tracking start at the per-user Starter tier, limiting what the free plan can cover.
• Cons: The trial cannot be used for production or commercial purposes, limiting its value for evaluating real operations.
• Cons: Offline mobile mode and API access require higher-tier plans, Professional and Business respectively.

Alternatives

For a free plan capped at three users, 50 equipment records, and two locations, consider Azzier CMMS instead of Atlas's broader asset range. Coast is another freemium alternative, with unlimited work orders but five repeating work orders and a seven-day history on its Free plan. Choose Fiix if its Free plan's 25 active PMs, unlimited service requests, work orders, downtime tracking, and asset management better match your needs. Maintainly offers a free plan with repeating work orders, checklists, meter readings, and task templates. MaintainX has a free Basic plan with unlimited work orders, procedures, and requester users, but only two work orders with attached procedures. Maintenance Care is an alternative with a $250 a month plan based on yearly pricing and unlimited users, work orders, preventive maintenance, and assets. For academic scheduling, consider EMS Academic Scheduling. Siemens Origin is another paid alternative.

Verdict

Choose Atlas CMMS if your maintenance team needs flexible scheduling, detailed asset records, and deployment beyond the cloud, and is prepared to pay per user for inventory or advanced workflows. Look elsewhere if you need a production-ready trial or want inventory and time tracking in a free tier.
