Frequently asked questions
How long does an eMaint implementation take?
The vendor states that pre-built modules and proven workflows get teams live in 90 days, and that the platform scales from a single site to enterprise-wide operations without switching systems. Implementation options range from self-service onboarding to Advanced Implementation, priced as add-ons, and the vendor says clean data or full standardization is not a prerequisite to starting.
How is eMaint priced?
Pricing is quote-based across two published tiers, Professional and Enterprise, with a 3-user minimum on Professional and a 5-user minimum on Enterprise. Professional and Enterprise plans are billed as a prepaid annual commitment, individual features are available a la carte, and the vendor says pricing will not increase for the term of the contract but may change at renewal.
Does eMaint connect to our ERP and plant systems?
Yes. eMaint integrates with SAP, Oracle and other ERP platforms so work orders, purchase orders and asset data flow between systems, and provides a documented REST API plus pre-built connectors and the Connect2Assets framework. It also accepts SCADA, PLC and IoT feeds, and Fluke wireless sensors are a native connection that can trigger work orders automatically when a reading crosses a threshold.
What support is included with eMaint?
The vendor FAQ says phone, email and live chat support are provided at all plan levels, with a dedicated Customer Success Manager for Professional and Enterprise customers and a senior Fluke account manager on Enterprise. Training resources include eMaint University, 24/7 online training, video tutorials, a help center, customer community and the annual Xcelerate conference.
Is AI included in eMaint?
Access to the eMaint AI Suite is listed as an Enterprise-tier feature rather than something present on every plan, and the vendor's timeline notes that an eMaint AI Assistant launched in 2026. eMaint has not published which model providers it uses, whether customers can supply their own model key, or how AI actions are logged and audited.
