Pros from Real Users Pros Intuitive, Allows for files to be downloaded and easy search. Tenant portal is easy for payments and tasks. We have been using Buildium for 8+ years. It streamlines all of our processes from tenant screening, rent collection to work orders. I love the Resident Center in which our tenants can submit work orders, upload pictures and videos of issues, they can communicate through the system as well as pay their rent and view documents. It is phenomenal. We recently started using the reconciliation function which will save us so much time that we can then spend on growing our business. One thing I can attest to, is over the years, the improvements that were made based on feedback of users like us. It's hard to find a program that will evolve as an industry evolves to stay ahead of the learning curve. I like all the integrations in one app for bookkeeping, leasing, memos, maintenance requests, billing etc. Buildium is easy to setup and use. I like the accounting features in Buildium better than some other accounting software products. I have been using Buildium since 2010 and I love it. We started on Buildium with couple of residential units. Today we manage huge portfolio of commercial real estate. I like the financial reports, EFT features to receive the rent as well electronic payments to vendors are huge time saving features. For the most part it’s user friendly, easy to navigate & communicate with tenants. I love the templates & ease of running reports. Buildium has adapted and added features and integrations that have been very helpful. The customer service has always been excellent. Support team is responsive and helpful. The software itself is easy to use and makes maintenance requests, rent collection and tenant communications a breeze. Buildium Academy courses and articles were especially helpful to get our company up and running. It's easy to set up as a "user" with one property unit managed by CornerStone, some of the Co-owners in our community could own more units. I have been using Buildium for over 10 years and it is user friendly and keeps thorough records and offers many user options. I am not very tech savvy and the system is fairly easy to understand. You can either look at charges by date or by account. You can keep up with tenants' insurance fairly easy. The report is easy to follow.		Pros & Cons from Real Users Pros I use a number of modules: Projects, Document Management, CRM and CMS. The platform is all integrated so data automatically links throughout the system. In a previous firm the Enterprise Document Management solution was difficult to use and sluggish - sharing files with external parties was very difficult. Now managing all sorts of documents with teams and clients is a breeze and search is really fast. Building beautiful content with the CMS is very quick and simple. The CRM holds all message threads so at a glance we can manage relationships. My team's key focus is operational efficiency and analytics to support sales, which are very dependent on process automation. Since using IDprop we have strengthened customer retention as well as various efficiency ratios. We also liked the fact they listened and were willing to customise analytics for our needs. Maintenance management has now been streamlined. Owners and tenants can request work orders, which we accept or reject. Booking external suppliers is extremely well done. We select time frame, job types and payment preferences and only get shown the top 3 lowest cost suppliers. The system calculuates all those hidden fees to make sure we only view suppliers with rates already approved. Suppliers can accept jobs, add parts and we approve parts before the jojb starts with automated supplier invoicing. The supplier confirms if they suspect tenant damage as well. Tenants and owners can give feedback. There are many controls built into the system, which reduces a large proportion of our workload meaning less admin staff to run our business. Working in business development seeing lead contact details doesn't cut it. I need depth: Precise requirements of each lead. IDprop nailed this. Tenants select preferences from a huge number of options. Tenants enter precise requirements: not only location and RSF, but for Commercial they can enter lot size, if they need building class, on-site maintenance or concierge. Industrial tenants can select lot size, minimum docks and clear height. Retail clients can state is they need break points while Residential have maybe 30 options like close to transport, AC, pool, gym, garden, balcony, parquet etc. When vacancies arise we select property and get a list of all matches and when a tenant calls we select tenant and view their matches in seconds. Detailed reporting lets us services owners much better than before. I manage residential and self-storage properties efficiently and easily with this software. Vacancy and lead searches are powerful tools while most of the hard work behind maintenance management is now automated. I am only shown approved suppliers and approve all spare parts before an order is finalised to ensure we keep a lid on budgets and avoid nasty surprises. With invoices based on system pricing this also saves our accounting dept. time. The CRM feature is very handy and to check tenants are satisfied, we have access to unlimited surveys. Cons Email templates for newsletters are missing but will come in the next version. No tool to post property listings on property sites. Not sure. The main features we needed were already in place. There is no feature that automates posting new properties for rent on 3rd party websites/social media. A map layout of each storage unit would have been nice but I'm told they're rolling this out in the next version, which means they listen to user requests.
