Data last updated November 2026 · Our methodology
Overview
Archibus is a long-established integrated workplace management system, founded in Boston in 1982. Since October 2022 it has been part of Eptura, a workplace technology group. It brings real estate and facilities data into one system, including floor plans, leases, equipment and assets. Its modules cover asset management, capital project tracking, space planning and hybrid work, workspace booking, lease and contract administration, and preventive and corrective maintenance. Field technicians can check parts, update tasks and log work from any device, including when offline. BIM integration underpins its space and asset tools. Eptura also offers a FedRAMP Authorized edition for US federal agencies and an on-premise option alongside the cloud version. The vendor lists integrations with Microsoft, Autodesk, GIS, IoT systems, HR, finance, visitor management and analytics tools, and SelectHub notes connectors for Workday, ServiceNow and Excel. Pricing is not published. Archibus is sold and implemented only through Eptura's partner network, licensing is per user, and modules are bought separately. The tool fits universities, hospitals, governments and large corporate real estate portfolios better than small sites or industrial plants. The main drawback is cost and effort. Reviewers rate value for money lowest of all its scores, say that viewer-heavy deployments get expensive under per-user licensing, and report that getting the most from it usually requires paid customization.
