We can help you with:

  • Importing historical data

Kick-off Meeting

Get the teams together, talk about and set expectations, and set timelines for implementation and setup.

Data Collection

Collect relevant data on assets, equipment, and inventory. You can collect the data yourself, we can help, or we can come and audit your facilities and do all the collecting for you. Then we prep everything for import.

Data Configuration and Import

Once we have all the data cleaned and prepped, we load it into your new cloud-based database.

Lifetime Support

Support is the step that never ends. A big part of having a successful implementation is the ongoing services we provide, including training and support. You get access to online training videos, live and recorded webinars, help articles, and a dedicated Customer Success Manager.

Hippo X Implementation Steps for Success

Hippo has a lot of experience helping organizations get started on the right foot. Over the years, we’ve developed a system we know works. Here’s how we do it.

Importing historical data

Switching over from an existing system? We know that data is king, and it would be hard to leave behind what you already built up. We can work with you to make sure you separate the wheat from the chaff and get what you need into your new Hippo database.

Customizing features and dashboards

Hippo is great right out of the box, but there are ways to make it even more perfect for you. We help you set up everything so it matches your facilities and workflows, including custom pages, dashboards, and alerts.

Setting up asset and equipment data

Depending on your operations, you might want to import data on your own, have some help, or get the turn-key solution where we come out to your site and inventory everything for you – right down to your parts and materials – before loading it all into the database. For each setup, we’re as hand off or hands on as you need.

Comprehensive Implementation Alongside Other Solutions

Get the benefits of a maintenance management system — like becoming more efficient, getting the most value from capital assets and equipment, and improving resource planning — without a time-consuming implementation, high costs, or a big learning curve.

We provide full-circle customer onboarding focused on ensuring that your team adopts the software to give your business the best long-term ROI.

Training

The key to a successful setup is buy-in. If your techs like the software, they’ll use it, and you’ll see a concrete return on your investment. So, how do we get the techs to like us?

We start with a truly easy to learn CMMS that makes life easier for maintenance departments. And on top of that we add training that focuses on building confidence and proving value.

Ongoing Support

Hippo is the absolute opposite of a fly-by-night operation. We’re right there beside you for the long haul. And a huge part of that is the ongoing support you get from us, including online how-to articles on new features, opportunities for additional training, webinars, and a dedicated Customer Success Manager.

Onsite & Virtual CMMS Implementation & Setup

We’re here to work with you, in whatever way works best for you.

In some cases, that means running everything online through meetings and emails. If your operation is the right size, we can walk you through most of it over the phone.

In other cases, it makes more sense to have our implementation experts come onsite and collect the data directly. They work fast and efficiently, and you get your setup done without having to pull resources from existing jobs.

Both solutions work great, and you get to choose which works best for you.
