Tabs CMMS & CAFM FAQ
How much does Tabs CMMS & CAFM cost?
Published pricing starts at £25 per user per month (Introductory, up to 5 core admin licences, 3 modules). The Advanced package is £35 per user per month with up to 10 admin licences, unlimited engineer mobile licences and 10 modules. Enterprise is price on application with unlimited licences and modules. Licences are only required for Core and Go interfaces; Web, View and API use is unlimited.
What costs beyond the subscription should I budget for?
The vendor states prices exclude set-up charges and hosting, so budget for hosting charges and implementation. Onsite mobilisation and training are only included in the Enterprise package, so other plans may need to buy onboarding separately. Enterprise pricing itself is quoted per estate.
Who is Tabs CMMS & CAFM best suited for?
It is aimed at organisations managing large estates or multi-site portfolios, and the vendor names NHS Trusts, Multi-Academy Trusts, schools, colleges, charities, maintenance service providers, leisure and sports venues, science and business parks, and manufacturing companies as users. It covers both CMMS (equipment maintenance) and CAFM (whole-estate facilities management).
What are the alternatives to Tabs CMMS & CAFM, and how do they compare?
Not publicly disclosed: the vendor does not publish competitor comparisons, and we could not verify a reliable independent head-to-head comparison. General-purpose CMMS/CAFM platforms compete on module depth, SFG20 alignment and UK public-sector fit; assess alternatives against your estate size and compliance requirements.
How long does it take to implement Tabs CMMS & CAFM?
Not publicly disclosed. The vendor describes a structured mobilisation and onboarding process, with onsite mobilisation and training included only in the Enterprise package, but publishes no implementation timelines.
How easy is Tabs CMMS & CAFM to learn and use?
The vendor highlights a modular, configurable platform with role-based permissions, standard reporting and structured onboarding guidance in every plan. No independent usability evaluation could be verified from retrieved sources.
What does Tabs CMMS & CAFM integrate with?
It integrates with SFG20 maintenance standards (Tabs is a recognised SFG20 digital partner), plus Outlook, a secure REST API and SSO, available depending on plan. Data migration templates (core, advanced and custom) are also offered by package, and the vendor lists finance system integration among its modules.
What support is included, and what costs extra?
Every plan includes core platform configuration, role-based permissions, standard reporting and structured onboarding guidance. UK-based support is emphasised vendor-wide. Onsite mobilisation and training are only in the Enterprise package, and the vendor notes all prices exclude set-up charges; any additional support tiers or their costs are not publicly disclosed.
