Facilities management Construction ### "Unlocking the Potential use of Shiresystem" 4.0 Overall Rating 4.0 4.0 Ease of Use 4.0 4.0 Features 3.0 3.0 Customer Service 4.0 4.0 Likelihood to Recommend 6/10 January 30, 2026 I think if i complete the training course again ill be able to use the system to its potential, I use it daily for basic tasks liek creating work orders, tracking reports etc. Pros its easy to edit work orders, reassign and change people's schedule to suit out programme, editing tasks and instructions is also easy to do. Cons Feel like the multi subject work groups can become confusing when trying to set them up, potentially need to complete a training refresher course. I also find when scheduling new work orders there can be a delay to them appearing on the scheduler.

Senior Lecturer Mechanical or Industrial Engineering ### "Shire System Review" 5.0 Overall Rating 5.0 5.0 Ease of Use 5.0 5.0 Features 5.0 5.0 Customer Service 5.0 5.0 Likelihood to Recommend 10/10 January 30, 2026 Straightforward to use easy to navigate and some what intuitive. its ability to link/embed other data such as photographs and cad data allows its application to non maintenance processes. Pros The ease of use, from the very first entry of asset details. Its simple to input data, the depth and complexity of which can be developed as familiarity with the system develops. Cons Nothing during my experience of its use. So it is difficult to critic something you have not reached the limits of.

Once the work has been put in the the system helps you out. Good to set tasks and set jobs. Pros Shire is a very easy system to use. Once populated it takes care of the rest. You can add and take away. And has been a massive help without our maintenance department. Cons Sometimes it is hard to find some of the records. They can be confusing to use but once you know where it all is.

" 5.0 Overall Rating 5.0 5.0 Ease of Use 5.0 5.0 Features 4.0 4.0 Customer Service 5.0 5.0 Likelihood to Recommend 10/10 January 14, 2026 Software can be a bit quirky but we have learnt how to manage this. Any issues are remedied promptly without being treated like an idiot. Pros The continual improvement of the software. We have been with ShireSystem for many years when it was very rigid and could be difficult to do what you wanted but has come on a long way. Cons Synchronizing of Mobile Pro often overwrites sign off notes on database. I will often write an essay on "work done" from a desktop to get down in writing all of the background to a work order. An engineer will then sync a tablet and my notes disappear. We have learnt to sync before, during and after making notes on mobile pro but we still have issues.

Engineering Planner Construction ### "Good CMMS - strong WO/PPM controll, UI needs tightening up" 4.0 Overall Rating 4.0 4.0 Ease of Use 4.0 4.0 Features 4.0 4.0 Customer Service 5.0 5.0 Likelihood to Recommend 7/10 January 13, 2026 Overall it’s been a good system for bringing order to maintenance planning. We run a heavy manufacturing site and the big win is having one place for work orders, planned maintenance, spares, and history. Once you start using it properly, you stop losing jobs, you stop repeating the same failures without learning, and you can actually plan shutdown work with some confidence. It does take effort up front – asset register, job plans, frequencies, spares, user training, and basic discipline (correct assets, failure coding, proper close-out). If the site isn’t willing to do that, any CMMS will struggle. For day to day planning it works well: you can build a weekly plan, manage overdue work, keep the system clean, and get decent KPI visibility without turning it into admin for the sake of admin. Pros \*It’s a proper CMMS that can handle a real factory, not just a spreadsheet with fancy buttons. \*PPM / WO control is strong once you’ve got your asset register and job plans set right. \*Good structure for assets, locations, job plans, parts, history etc. Helps drive standards and stops the “we’ll remember it in our heads” nonsense. \*Backlog visibility is decent. You can actually see what’s overdue, what’s waiting parts, what’s waiting labour, what’s shutdown, etc. \*Reporting is useful for compliance and for catching bad habits (people closing jobs wrong, using wrong assets, no failure codes etc). Cons \*The newer “fresh” look is a bit too uniform- every tab/window looks the same, so it’s dead easy to hit the wrong “+” and do the wrong thing, for example: you think you’re adding parts to a work order, but you’ve actually started creating a brand new work order. Hence me using the old icons/look, actually. \*If your master data is messy (assets, BoMs, stock, locations) it will show up straight away. It’s not a “magic fix” – you still need to do the hard yards. \*Adoption is the real battle. If production report breakdowns on radios and nobody logs it, the system looks bad -but that’s people/process, not the software. \*Performance can feel a bit slow at times. Could be our servers, but it’s noticeably slower than what we’ve seen in demos / meetings.

Easy to train new starters to shire as the page formats are the same. Pros I like the purchasing side of ShireSystem. Its great for tracking traceability to follow a request to quote to order status. and linking work orders to the PO. Very helpful. Customer support has been amazing, always answers within 30mins. Cons It would be handy to drag and drop documents into the files. not being able to make bespoke reports. Rather having to adjust the pre set up reports Review source Incentivized review: software users are invited to submit an honest review and offered a nominal incentive for their time and effort.

Pros The level of automation between the various modules. The ability to add something at a site level and let that filter right down to a work order on an engineer's tablet really helps to make things quicker. Cons The Permit to work module. I feel it could be better with a bit more of the "Microsoft Forms" integration thrown into it such as IF this happens then do THIS..

The document manager, the ability to have SOP's/RA available while the task is being completed Cons the shire system provides all the functions we need currently, I feel like the mobile pro app could be more user friendly.

Engineering Manager Food Production ### "A solid CMMS system and essential tool for work management & compliance" 4.0 Overall Rating 4.0 4.0 Ease of Use 4.0 4.0 Features 4.0 4.0 Customer Service 5.0 5.0 Likelihood to Recommend 8/10 January 8, 2026 We have an Engineering Team of around 75 people across 3 sites and use the desktop and mobile pro version with around 60 mobile licences. Overall we have a positive experience with Shire System and it gives us what we need from a work management and compliance point of view to ISO45001, ISO9001 and FSSC 22000. We are currently uploading our inventory to Shire and will be expanding to use the purchasing module in 2026. Pros The User interface is friendly and easy to navigate. The features are mostly everything that we need for a day to day work management. The work orders can have as little or as much information submitted as we require and the document management section more than adequately covers our audit requirements. Therea re multiple ways to complete jobs using the desktop version and the mobile app. Spare parts can be added to a work order and booked out individually once you have set your inventory up on the system. Options are available to use the dashboard view or a BI connector to get the data you require. Plenty of additional modules available for what requirements you need, permit to work, wallboard, purchasing, etc. The mobile app works quite well for work management across all our teams. Cons You can't click into the asset data from a work order and this can be frustrating as you end up having multiple tabs open. There are lots of report templates available but none give me quite what I need and we end up exporting data to excel and creating our own shift reports. This is mainly as you can create teams but there is no filter for teams on the reports templates.
