What you would be giving up
NEXGEN Asset Management is most often brought in for a water utility that must show a board why a specific main is being replaced this year rather than next, a city public works department consolidating a gis asset inventory and a paper work order process into one system, an airport authority tracking condition assessments across airside and landside assets with capital forecasting, a district that needs citizen service requests to become tracked work orders with an auditable history. Anything replacing it has to cover the ones you actually depend on, and a cheaper tool that misses one of them is not cheaper.
Two things this page cannot settle. It compares on price, model, tier count and rating, because those are the fields the category listing carries, feature-level differences need both full records, which is what the head-to-head pages load. And the ratings are third-party aggregates imported with each entry rather than reviews written here, so a 0.2 difference between two tools is noise rather than a finding.
If NEXGEN Asset Management is broadly right and the question is cost, the NEXGEN Asset Management pricing breakdown covers every tier and what each one adds. If you want the whole field rather than a shortlist, the Government category lists everything the directory holds, and best government tools ranks them.
NEXGEN Asset Management runs on web, ios, android. Platform coverage is not carried on the category listing for the alternatives, so it is one more thing to check on each head-to-head page rather than here.
