Your IBM MAS sandbox environment in action within a few days

What will your IBM MAS environment look like in the future? With our sandbox version, that’s no longer a question, but a certainty. Creating such a version is simple and fast. We will visit you, make a copy of your existing IBM Maximo environment and a few days later the time has come. Then we will show you on a laptop what your new IBM MAS looks like in broad terms. For the sake of clarity: you will not be presented with a PowerPoint, but you will actually see an upgrade of your IBM Maximo environment ─ in your own look & feel and with your own data.

Without any hassle: quickly and easily visualize your new IBM MAS environment

The great thing is that with a sandbox version of IBM MAS you don’t have to meet all kinds of conditions first. For example, you don’t need an OpenShift environment, firewall or certificates yet, and you don’t have to think about hosting or management yet. With our sandbox version, you can lay the foundation for your new IBM MAS environment in a very accessible way. Of course it is a first step. For example, we have not yet looked at things such as links to your other systems. The point is that you get a quick and easy picture of the situation after your transition to IBM MAS.

Important step in your IBM MAS migration

Creating a sandbox version of your IBM MAS environment is immediately an important preparatory step for your real migration. Because it immediately gives a picture of things that we will have to take into account, such as technical changes or the integration within your IT landscape. But also think about possible training for your employees. Is this necessary or can they get started with your new IBM MAS application right away? In that respect too, the switch to IBM MAS is much easier than you probably think.

Well informed and prepared for IBM MAS

As we already wrote in our blog about the IBM MAS Readiness Check, IBM MAS builds on Maximo 7.6. It is and remains a familiar environment for your employees ─ there is a good chance that they will be able to manage with IBM MAS with a few tips. Do you expect to need more support? Then you can of course count on Gemba. We not only ensure that you start the migration to IBM MAS well informed and well prepared, but also that your people get the most out of it after implementation.
