Decision Matrix — 8 Dimensions of Comparison

Atlantis ERP has an open REST API, so it connects to SAP, Maximo, NetSuite or any other system that accepts API connections; each integration is scoped with you during implementation.

Cost-Driver Decomposition (Qualitative)

Cost drivers (qualitative, no pricing): (a) licensing / subscription model — per-user vs per-asset vs per-inspection; (b) implementation services — phased rollout, data migration, integration scoping; (c) training + cert refresh — inspector cohort onboarding; (d) ongoing support — SLA tier, regional coverage hours, escalation pathway; (e) infrastructure — SaaS multi-tenant vs single-tenant vs on-prem; (f) hidden costs — module add-ons, API call limits, premium-support tier. Atlantis NDT delivers all-in transparent quote — affordable, accessible, fully customizable.

Use-Case Bands — Where Each Favours

Each option favours specific use-case bands: enterprise-scale single-asset (Maximo / SAP PM territory), inspection-contractor multi-customer (Atlantis ERP / Floodlight territory), small-team focused (lightweight CMMS), per-method specialised (proprietary instrument vendor tools). Atlantis NDT positions in the inspection-contractor + multi-customer band — inspection-native, code-aware, ASNT Level III-led implementation.

For the people managing everyone else’s certifications

Tracking one certification is easy; tracking two hundred across five methods, with vision exams, on-the-job hours and client-specific approvals, is where inspection companies lose client audits. Certification tracking and the wider inspection management software guide cover how expiry warnings flag a technician’s certificate before it lapses and how double-booking is blocked at dispatch. There is also a free qualification and calibration register you can start using today.
