The short version

  • Only Fiix has a free tier, so it costs nothing to try first.
  • Each has a real cost: Fiix integrations, SSO, audit trail and database export are all Enterprise only, which carries no published price; Tractian sensors are excluded from both published CMMS tiers and are quoted per monitored asset, so the transparent rate card covers only the part of the deployment that costs least.
  • They diverge on capability: Fiix covers Work order management, Tractian covers Published per-user pricing.
  • Prices and features above were last checked on 1 September 2026.

What people use each for

The jobs each tool is most often brought in to do.

Fiix

  • Maintenance management and work order tracking for equipmentnot Tractian
  • Scheduling preventive maintenance and managing spare parts inventorynot Tractian

Tractian

  • A mid-market plant replacing spreadsheet maintenance planning where hundreds of operators must report faults but only a dozen plan worknot Fiix
  • Instrumenting critical motors and pumps and having detected faults become work orders without an integration projectnot Fiix
  • A maintenance manager who needs a defensible budget figure before an approval meeting rather than a quote in three weeksnot Fiix
  • A multi-site manufacturer wanting the same CMMS and sensor platform across Brazilian, Mexican and United States plantsnot Fiix

Where each one falls short

Documented limitations, not opinions. Every one is a constraint you would hit in normal use.

Fiix

  • Integrations, SSO, audit trail and database export are all Enterprise only, which carries no published price
  • The $75 Professional plan still excludes e signatures, failure codes and any integration
  • The $45 Basic plan excludes multi site management, purchasing and advanced analytics
  • The free plan is limited in users and withholds almost every feature beyond basic work orders
  • Assets are unlimited on every tier, so the ladder is entirely about features rather than scale

Tractian

  • Sensors are excluded from both published CMMS tiers and are quoted per monitored asset, so the transparent rate card covers only the part of the deployment that costs least.
  • Smart Trac hardware reports into the Tractian platform, so a plant that later changes analytics vendor writes off the installed sensor base.
  • The five-user minimum on Standard and ten-user minimum on Enterprise put a floor under the cost that small maintenance teams cannot get below.
  • ERP integration, single sign-on and the Power BI connector are Enterprise-only, so an organisation needing SAP integration pays the higher rate for every licensed user including technicians who need none of it.
  • The company is young and venture-funded with rapid product expansion, so enterprise features are newer than the core CMMS and reference sites at large industrial scale are fewer than for established EAM vendors.
