Clue Vs Limble

Limble Overview

Limble is a CMMS built to help maintenance teams stay organized. Teams use it to create and manage work orders, schedule preventive maintenance, track assets, and keep service history in one place. It is known for being easy to set up and simple for technicians to use day to day.

How It Compares to Clue

Both Limble and Clue help teams run preventive maintenance, inspections, work orders, and service tracking. The difference is what they are built around.

Limble is a general CMMS. It works well for teams that want a straightforward system to manage maintenance across facilities, vehicles, or equipment. Most maintenance planning happens inside the CMMS through schedules, checklists, and manual inputs.

Clue is built for construction equipment operations. It connects maintenance to equipment usage and field conditions so teams can prioritize work based on what is happening on the job, not just what is on the calendar. Clue also supports broader equipment workflows beyond maintenance, like tracking, utilization, and fleet management, so operations and maintenance work from the same source of truth.
