The short version

  • Each has a real cost: Limble CMMS prices are not published on any tier; the pricing page offers a calculator instead; Redlist no pricing is published by the vendor, and the four licence types have different capabilities, so the only way to size a budget is a quote and the widely repeated per-user figures come from review sites.
  • They diverge on capability: Limble CMMS covers Preventive maintenance, Redlist covers Lubrication routes.
  • Prices and features above were last checked on 1 September 2026.

Where each one falls short

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

Limble CMMS

  • Prices are not published on any tier; the pricing page offers a calculator instead
  • Mobile offline mode is withheld from the Standard tier, which matters for technicians working in plant with no signal
  • Spare parts, vendor and purchase order management all require Premium+
  • REST API access is not available on Standard
  • SSO is an add-on on Premium+ and only included with Enterprise
  • Multi-location tools, custom roles and 21 CFR compliance are Enterprise only

Redlist

  • No pricing is published by the vendor, and the four licence types have different capabilities, so the only way to size a budget is a quote and the widely repeated per-user figures come from review sites.
  • Cost scales with licensed users, which is awkward for operations with large numbers of technicians who each need only to record a completed lubrication route.
  • Outside lubrication the CMMS is ordinary, so organisations without a lubrication-driven failure problem pay a specialist price for general functionality.
  • The customer base and support presence are North American, which affects response times, lubricant catalogue coverage and reference availability elsewhere.
  • The integration list is short compared with established CMMS platforms, so connecting to an ERP or a plant historian is likely to need custom API work.
