Review IFS Ultimo

Kommentare: We are very satisfied with the different modules of Ultimo, which we have been using since 2009. Since August 2022 as a Cloud version, previously on premise.

As administrator you can use an extensive backoffice which has improved greatly in recent years - The good integration options - The very good helpdesk support - The variety of modules that can be used. We use facility management, fleet management, inventory and purchasing, item distribution, key management, studio rental and infrastructure management. - Ability to create your own reports

- Some nice-to-have user interface features : double click on a grid, color rows in a selection list depending on status - More roles per user - Generating QR code for infrastructure is not yet possible

In Betracht gezogene Alternativen: TOPdesk

Warum IFS Ultimo gewählt wurde: The old software had too few options and functions

Gründe für den Wechsel zu IFS Ultimo: Because of the completeness and functionality

Good FMIS software, IT needs extra functionality

Kommentare: Our Facility department uses Ultimo for registration, handling and maintenance (planning) of technical installations, Reservations of conferencerooms, requests for inventory (wheelchairs etc.), Building+space registration. Ultimo is used for over 10 years and has improved rapidly is this period.
Since last year, our employees use the selfservice-portal for report of incidents and requests, that are handled through the several backoffices. The Facility-backoffices that use Ultimo are TD, Servicedesk, security, cleaning. Our department 'Medical Technology' uses Ultimo for registration and maintenance of medical instruments for over 10 years with use of links to GMG (AOC) and recently MTBook. Our department ICT uses Ultimo since last year for registration/handling of ICT-configurations and incidents/requests concerning the configurations and software. For ICT-matters the selfservice-portal was implemented to support our employees in reporting incidents/requests.

Vorteile:

- Very flexible in changeing userinterface. Requests of users can easely be granted. Just be careful to keep the Ultimo-lookandfeel. - The use of selectionlists is al good alternative for reports. Because the use of relations between data, it is very easy to provide the users with information that can be exported tot Excel and PDF. - Facility management is fairly complete - Configuring of Ultimo to adapt it our organisation is easy: procesflows can be easily expanded. - Ultimo-Supportdesk always reacts - Consultant we hire is very competent.

Nachteile:

- We perceive that the IT-module is not yet fully developed. - The implementation of processes is flexible, but obvious functionality is not available, like: -> a good system for relations between changejobs (this is only avaliable when using changetemplates, not when extra jobs are added) -> Good/simple forms for the reporter to do a request (like conditional fields, that appear depending in values filed in) -> Extensive dashboard possibilities - The configuration of Ultimo GO is difficult and not as flexible as the rest of Ultimo.

In Betracht gezogene Alternativen: TOPdesk

Warum IFS Ultimo gewählt wurde: We switched partly: Because Ultimo was already used, a switch to Ultimo was obvious. The cost and maintenance of 1 product is less. Although the functionality of the IT-module of TOPDesk is better, we accepted this as a downside.

Zuvor genutzte Software: TOPdesk

Gründe für den Wechsel zu IFS Ultimo: Flexiblilty Costs The Module used by the Medical Technology department is complete and succesfully in use for over 10 years. The Module for Facility was fully implemented and already succesfully in use for over 10 years.
