Where each one falls short
Documented limitations, not opinions. Every one is a constraint you would hit in normal use.
iHawk by Cyberhawk
- Cyberhawk's business is inspection services, so the platform is normally sold as part of a capture contract and the software line item cannot be compared cleanly against standalone asset inspection platforms
- Nothing is published about price, and because contracts bundle flights, processing and platform access, the recurring cost after the inspection campaign ends is often not clear at signature
- The value of the platform grows with the length of the historical series held in it, which makes switching increasingly expensive over time and gives the vendor leverage at renewal
- It is a review and management platform rather than an enterprise asset management system, so defect findings still need to reach SAP or Maximo to become work orders, and that integration is a project in its own right
- Automated defect detection reduces review effort but does not remove the need for qualified inspection engineers to sign off findings, so headcount savings are smaller than a technology-led business case usually assumes

Answered from the vendors’ own pages
iHawk by Cyberhawk: Can I buy iHawk without Cyberhawk's inspection services?
Ask explicitly. The company positions the platform as enterprise software, but its normal route to market is bundled with data capture, so standalone terms are negotiated rather than listed.
iHawk by Cyberhawk: Who owns the inspection data?
That is contract-specific and should be settled before signature, including what format you receive on exit and whether historical defect tagging comes with you.
iHawk by Cyberhawk: What does it cost?
Not published. Expect pricing driven by asset count, data volume and the scope of the inspection programme.
iHawk by Cyberhawk: Does it replace an asset management system?
No. It manages inspection data and findings. Work orders and maintenance planning stay in SAP, Maximo or your equivalent.
