FaultFixers is maintenance management software that can be used by all teams in any industry. If you manage facilities or properties, it's likely you'll need a maintenance management system - FaultFixers makes it digital. You can use FaultFixers on desktop, or take it with you on-the-go with our tablet and mobile apps.

Can I get FaultFixers on mobile?

Yes! FaultFixers is available on Desktop, iPhone and Android. You can download the FaultFixers app from the App Store or Google Play Store.

What is a reporter user?

A Reporter User is anyone in your wider workforce (or external) that can report an issue, raise a job, or submit a work order directly to you.

Reporter Users have limited permissions, so they can’t access your back office, Dashboard or Teams App – they only have access to the Reporter App or Reporter Web Portal, and only if you give them access.

You’re in control – but give access to your wider workforce to improve service.

Examples include:

  • Teaching Staff (Schools)
  • Care Workers (Health Care)
  • Leaseholders (Developers)

What is a team user?

A Team User is someone in your immediate Team who will manage the administrative side of FaultFixers, including accessing, managing, reviewing, responding and resolving any or all of your maintenance tasks.

They can access the FaultFixers Dashboard and the Teams App.

You can set the permission levels for each Team Users individually, by Group, or by Building. 

FaultFixers has over 30 permission settings, so if you want to give ‘view-only’ to one Team User and ‘update status’ permissions to another, you can do so with ease.

You can also provide 3rd party access to Contractors and Trade.

Examples include:

  • Schools Business Manager & Care Taker (Education)
  • Facility Manager (any industry)
  • After Care/Sales (Developers)
  • Accommodation Manager (Uni)
  • Security Contractor (3rd Party)
  • Head of Maintenance (any industry)

What are Locations/ Buildings?

Your FaultFixers account can be configured to suit you business.

Maintenance Tasks (reactive & planned), Jobs, Issues, Forms etc, can be created and logged against:

  • An Account
  • A Building
  • A Location
  • An Asset (requires asset feature)

You can then benefit through granular reporting into each layer, so if you would like to know which Asset has cost the most in maintenance during the year, it’s quick to do so.

The greater the granularity of your FaultFixers setup, the more benefits you’ll get and the more helpful insightful your data will be.

Examples include:

  • Link a boiler certificate to the Asset, within a Location, within a Building, within your Account.
