I have used this software to manage about 55 units. The system works so well I wish that they would develop a software system for car dealers ( my other business). All of the process are easy and intuitive. Countless reports in one click! All of my information in one place backed up and secured is well worth the cost. Truthfully I would pay double and still be a satisfied customer.

Buildium is the core of our business. It's our database for everything. Without it we would have to use multiple software programs, one for accounting, one for contact info, one for online tenant payments, one for background checks, the list goes on and on. We probably would end up doing double work. Everyday Buildium seams to develop for the better. We are so glad we found this all encompassing program!

Switched to Buildium about two years ago and have been very pleased with their services. For us (a small business) easy of use and tenant self-servicing are a big deal and Bulidum does an excellent job in both regards. Of particular note the integrated online payments for tenants, the maintenance request workflow, our internal monthly closeout and reconciliation/audit and 1099 processing are the big things we use. Since we own the property we manage we generally are less concerned about owner access to the records (as we see the records in Buildium by virtue of our role of managing the properties), but again Buildium has the functionality to support individual owner access where they can self service reports, financials, updates, etc. While I cannot really speak to this feature as we ourselves do not use it, I supect for those who are engaged in managing 3rd party property this is a very useful feature to have. Moreover since Bulidium itself is small business it's nimble and able to respond quickly to customer needs and suggestions (currently I am lobbying with other Buildium users to integrate a SMS option for communicating with tenants and Buildium is actually taking us seriously.) Anyways "small business" is rather hard to quantify in terms of an exact benefit but the fact they will take the time to listen to customers and implement their ideas is worth something...rather then being transferred to some far flung call center just to be ignored. Furthermore Bulidum is still operated by the initial founders who themselves own property and therefore have personal skin in the property management game. The only downside with Buildium is the (perhaps irrational) concern they'll be bought out by one of the big behemoths and we'll see the dynamic, intuitive software and culture replaced by something far worse. Hopefully that won't happen but considering the extent to which we use Buildium in our day-to-day operations, the thought of going through a migration worries me. Lastly we ourselves are about to jump from the single-family realm into the multifamily one and one and one of the main reasons we feel comfortable in doing so is that we have a tool as powerful - and scalable - as Buildium. tldr: Buildium is intuitive, run/developed by property managers themselves, and facilitates automation and tenant/owner self-servicing; the downside is what happens (if?) they are bought-out, sold, or the current leadership retire.

I have been using this software now for a year. I really like it I have never used a software that was easy to use. When I wasn't sure on how to do something they where there to walk me though anything I have asked. I would highly recommend this to anyone weather they have used business software or for the first time user as I was. One thing I really liked was that I could try it before I bought it. Once I tried it I was hooked. I hope this helps anyone that maybe looking for new business software.

By far the best property management software I've ever used. Rent Manager blows and Propertyware can't compete with what Buildium offers. The customer service is awesome, the usability is beyond awesome and the price is EVEN BETTER.

Buildium helps keep my business organized. My tenants pay their rent and submit maintenance requests online so they appear in my inbox rather than a lengthy phone conversation. I love the fact that all my reporting and record keeping is in one convenient place so my accountant and I can track all the data points. All in all, Buildium is well organized and the customer service is spectacular. This is a great system for automating many time consuming components of the apartment business.

It was a big decision coming from 30 years of paper accounting to a software based program. I choose to go with Buildium and here's why: 1. It's a software in the cloud so I can work from anywhere, using any computer. I can get support anytime I need it, not just for a limited period of time. Updates are constantly being made automatically, I don't have to worry about my software becoming out of date. 2. The price is right. We are a small company and can't afford a large bill for software. Buildium offers pricing that fit our budget. 3. I love the simplicity of design and ease of use. I did trials of several software companies as I was making my decision. As a Mac user, I expect software to be powerful, yet simple and easy to figure out without needing to take a class on how to use it. 4. I like the fact that Buildium listens to it's customers and makes changes based on customer requests. I've been using Buildium for 3 years now and have already seen several changes I voted for become implemented. Buildium has streamlined our business. It makes my job so much easier!

Buildium molded our company to act as one or united as one through providing accurate accounting data, proper work orders numbering, having an easy access to send mails/emails/text messages to all of our tenants, owners, leads and even prospect, getting an unforgettable customer service satisfaction from them via online tickets or over the phone and most of all system is very dynamic because they always re - create, reinvent and revitalize the style of handling this website. They also consider the welfare of users before deciding or changing something new to the system through users comments and suggestions. They valued the privacy of all the tenants, owners and managers that we have. Service wise buildium is very trusted because all personal information are secured and locked in one place.
