Arez vs Legacy CAFM: The AI-Powered Alternative to Joblogic & Verisae

3 min read

If inefficiency is costing you hours, cash, and contracts, the question isn’t whether you need a CAFM system; it’s why you’re still using one from the past.

Legacy platforms like Joblogic and Verisae were designed years ago, when manual data entry and clunky interfaces were the norm. Today, they’re expensive to maintain, full of hidden costs, and slow to adapt. They promise visibility but deliver friction, forcing your teams to re-key data, chase paperwork, and juggle endless bolt-ons.

Arez changes everything. It’s an AI-powered CAFM built for modern facilities and field-service operators who want measurable results, not complexity.

Instead of scattered tools, Arez unites your business under one roof:

Sales Pipeline+ – a free integrated CRM that tracks leads, quotes, and renewals from first contact to invoice.
Inspect App – digitise audits, risk assessments, and site forms with live compliance status.
Arez Mobile App – empower engineers and subcontractors with real-time job visibility, proof of presence, and instant updates.
SmartCerts AI – automatically scans, verifies, and files certificates to prevent compliance lapses.

With AI-driven scheduling, instant invoicing, and live dashboards, Arez eliminates repetitive admin and turns every job into a traceable, profitable workflow.

Efficiency Without the Headache

Most CAFM systems drain your time and wallet. Arez flips that model: more capability, less friction, and nearly half the cost. Smart automation replaces manual entry, predictive alerts replace late surprises, and integrations work seamlessly across jobs, finance, and compliance.

Data is protected with enterprise-grade encryption and transparent consent, because operational speed should never compromise trust.

Running your FM business on outdated software is like managing a modern operation with 1990s tech. You can survive, but you won’t scale.

Old CAFM Systems (e.g. Joblogic, Verisae)

Platform Age & Architecture

Modern, cloud-native, AI-powered platform built for 2025 and beyond.

Outdated architecture, designed a decade ago; patchy updates and limited scalability.

Reactive Job Management

Instant job creation, auto-dispatch, live tracking, proof of presence.

Manual job entry and delayed status updates — hard to track performance in real time.

PPM (Planned Preventive Maintenance)

Automated task generation, SLA alerts, and full asset history tracking.

Static schedules, poor visibility of missed tasks, and no predictive alerts.

CRM & Sales Tracking

Sales Pipeline+ built in free CRM for quotes, renewals, and client tracking.

Mobile Workforce App

Arez Mobile App for engineers, subcontractors, and supervisors fully live and GPS-enabled.

Legacy mobile apps with limited offline access and slow sync times.

Compliance & Auditing

SmartCerts AI automatically reads, verifies, and files certificates.

Manual uploads, human errors, and missing documentation risk compliance breaches.

Inspect App for digital forms, audits, risk assessments, and asset checks.

Paper-based forms or separate tools that don’t sync with job data.

Invoicing & Finance Integration

One-click invoice flow with Xero, Sage, QuickBooks and custom export to Excel.

Manual re-entry into finance systems; time-consuming reconciliations.

Automation & AI

Predictive scheduling, compliance reminders, and data-driven insights.

Reactive only, no AI automation or smart forecasting.

Data Security

AES-level encryption, consent-based sharing, and full GDPR compliance.

Legacy systems with weak security layers and unclear data policies.

User Experience

Clean, modern UI with role-based dashboards and minimal training time.

Clunky, slow interfaces built around outdated workflows.

Total Cost of Ownership

Transparent pricing, nearly 50% lower than legacy CAFM platforms.

Expensive licences, hidden costs, and extra charges for add-ons or support.
