Don't get left behind
Many Maximo users are seeking a more agile, tailored solution and a true upgrade in functionality and user experience, not just a replacement.
Common questions Maximo users are asking and how L2L can help:
1. What exactly is happening with IBM Maximo?
IBM Maximo version 7.6.1 is reaching its End of Support (EOS) on September 30, 2025.
This means IBM will no longer provide standard support, including security patches, bug fixes, and updates for this specific version.
Ignoring this means your system will be vulnerable to security threats and lack critical updates.
2. What are the risks of staying on Maximo 7.6.1 after September 30, 2025?
Continuing to use Maximo 7.6.1 after the EOS date exposes your organization to significant risks, including:
- Security vulnerabilities: Without security updates, your system becomes more susceptible to cyberattacks.
- Compliance issues: Depending on your industry and regulations, running unsupported software can lead to compliance violations.
- Lack of bug fixes: Any software issues you encounter will not be addressed by IBM.
- Limited support: You will have limited or no access to IBM's technical support for your Maximo 7.6.1 system.
3. Is migrating to the Maximo Application Suite (MAS 8) my only option?
While IBM is encouraging users to migrate to MAS 8, it's not your only option.
Many organizations are exploring alternative Enterprise Asset Management (EAM) solutions that offer a more flexible, cost-effective, and tailored approach.
L2L is a strong alternative that can provide a seamless transition and broader scope of functionality.
4. Why should I consider switching to L2L instead of migrating to MAS 8?
L2L offers a comprehensive smart manufacturing solution built to eliminate downtime.
- More than just assets: Includes robust Asset Management, Workflows, Advanced Planning & Scheduling, MES, CMMS, Manufacturing Intelligence, and Predictive Maintenance.
- User-friendly: Intuitive interface for better frontline adoption.
- Flexible and scalable: Adapts to your needs and grows with you. Choose what use case and module to start with.
- Competitive pricing: Offers strong value. Whatever IBM quotes you, expect L2L to be half the cost.
- Tailored to you: Focused on your specific needs. With your personal success manager and implementation team.
