Expert Verdict

Tractian

Tractian is the right choice for mid-market and enterprise organizations wanting a single, integrated platform for maintenance management and condition monitoring. Per-user pricing is a barrier for smaller teams.

💰 Pricing: CMMS Standard: $60/user/month (5-user minimum, billed annually) · Enterprise: $100/user/month (10-user minimum) · Bundle with condition-monitoring sensors: custom quote

Amper

Amper is a strong choice for job shops and contract manufacturers needing a broader FactoryOps platform rather than machine monitoring alone. PLC connectivity provides more depth than pure current-sensing competitors.

💰 Pricing: No pricing published · Custom quote covering software, plug-and-play sensors, onboarding and support · Now sold by ECI Software Solutions
⚖️
Bottom Line
Tractian wins 4 of 12 categories, a clear edge in overall intelligence. Amper is the stronger choice if quick-deploy factoryops is your primary requirement.
