.With all of these options MaintSmart data can be shared with anyone. The most popular format with our users is the Adobe Acrobat export. Another popular export format is Excel. With Excel the data is easily charted and analyzed using Excel’s powerful features. Saving CMMS data as a web page is a two button-click process. Any data grid on any screen in the entire program exports and immediately creates a new web page. This is particularly useful when equipment maintenance information, such as downtime history, is posted to a corporate website.
