I wouldn't know the pricing of the solution.

You have the licensing fee and then you have a yearly service subscription with IBM. That gives you access to the newest version of the software and support services. There's no additional cost to that.

On a scale from one to ten, where one is low and ten is high, I rate the pricing a nine. The price is very high. My company has to pay extra apart from the licensing fees paid for the solution. The payments are made annually.

Get an understanding of the intended usage at your company, and look at both the named user and concurrent-license pricing to make a determination which makes more sense for your usage.  Where available, concurrent licenses can be more cost efficient and provide more flexibility.

Licensing costs for IBM Maximo are now more expensive relative to some of the cloud-based platforms that offer cheaper solutions and are more flexible in terms of fees. I believe it costs around 700 USD for one agent user on Maximo. In addition, we have to pay IBM's local partner in Pakistan some service charges and tax-related fees. There is also an annual cost for support services. We are constantly checking alternatives that offer better flexibility on the technical and cost side. We would switch to another solution if it could meet our needs at a lower cost. 

The price of IBM Maximo could reduce, it is expensive.

Upgrading is not covered in the annual support, it is an additional cost.

I rate the price of IBM Maximo a four out of five.

I think the price is generally competitive but sometimes you have to consider the exchange rate because it's an American product and you have to consider the exchange rate. The cloud version is more expensive. 

Pricing is competitive.

The license structure is quite different here, but now it's changing. We are planning to change the model in January 2022 because IBM has changed the licensing policy. As I understand now, they are going from a complex way of licensing to a more simple way of licensing.

IBM hasn't rebranded, but they changed the licensing policy. There are different types of licenses for different types of users. For the different kinds of models they're using in Maximo, they would need to have a certain type of license. Now they have application points. If you are using this module in Maximo, you need to have three points. If you are using this type of product, you need to have four points. It's more simple.

I didn't get involved with the pricing. I don't know the prices, or how it works. I know how to use licenses in Maximo and check the licenses to ensure that we have not gone over, but I did this for every company for which I worked. 

IBM Maximo offers a licensing application, and you have to comply with the license. Otherwise, I have no idea about prices or anything else. I'm not sure how much it costs. I'm not the one looking for prices. I know the software is good, and when something is good, I believe you should pay what it costs.

The concurrent user license is much more effective in management and cost-wise, as it is more suitable for maintenance management.

The on-premise license does not need to be renewed, only the EMC, which is 5-8% on the contract value.

I do not know about the price of the solution. However, this has been an expensive project overall.

Explore the possibility of using DB2. You will avoid the cost of SQL Server or Oracle licenses.

Explore internal processes in order to evaluate the correct number of users in each Maximo module, then evaluate the different offers of pricing and licensing.

You pay for what you get. There are lots of options depending on how you would like to implement Maximo.
