Maintastic

Maintastic is a CMMS from Aachen that grew out of a remote-assistance product. The company was founded in 2016 as oculavis and took the Maintastic name in 2025.

Besides asset management, tickets, work order planning, recurring maintenance and digital checklists, Maintastic includes live video assistance between a technician and a remote expert, and an AI assistant that creates tickets from speech and translates them. Apps for iOS and Android are available. Maintastic takes second place because it is the only vendor of the seven that offers a local installation as well as a cloud workspace, and because it reports having no outside investors at all.

The contracting party is Maintastic GmbH, Vaalser Str. 259, 52074 Aachen, registered at the Aachen district court under HRB 20412, and its terms are governed by German law. The about page gives more than 60 employees and the figure of zero investors, and states ISO/IEC 27001 certification.

Where a cloud workspace is hosted is not published: the Maintastic terms say that the provider of servers and databases is specified in the individual contract. The privacy policy names a German host for the marketing website only, which is not the same thing as the application.

Maintastic publishes its licence structure but not its prices. The Standard model includes an own cloud workspace with an individual domain and starts at five full-user licences.

The Enterprise model starts at ten full-user licences and adds the API, IoT integrations, SAP and Salesforce connectors and single sign-on. Light-user licences, white-label apps and on-premise deployment are add-ons. A 14-day free trial is offered. Maintastic suits manufacturers that want remote support and maintenance in one tool or must run the software themselves; a team of two or three technicians falls below the five-licence minimum.

What Maintastic does well

• Maintastic offers a cloud setup or a local installation, with on-premise deployment listed as an add-on
• Maintastic states ISO/IEC 27001 certification on its about page
• Maintastic GmbH reports zero investors and more than 60 employees
• Live video remote assistance and a speech-driven AI assistant are part of the Maintastic Standard model
• Maintastic offers a 14-day free trial

Where Maintastic falls short

• Maintastic shows no prices; every quote goes through sales
• The Maintastic Standard model starts at five full-user licences and Enterprise at ten
• The API and single sign-on are reserved for the Maintastic Enterprise model
• The hosting provider for the Maintastic cloud is named only in the customer contract

Standout feature. Maintastic is the one CMMS in this comparison that can be installed locally, and it comes from an Aachen company that states it has no outside investors.
