“Buildium has been terrific
Pros
The tenant portal has dramatically simplified maintenance requests. It's incredibly user-friendly for tenants, eliminating the need for direct phone calls, emails, or texts to owners and staff. All maintenance requests are recorded, and now I can easily assign work orders to contractors. Overall, it has significantly increased productivity and tenant satisfaction.
Cons
It would be beneficial to have a search feature that allows me to search for transactions using keywords or dollar amounts. Additionally, it would be helpful to allow larger attachments for invoices, exceeding the current 1 MB limit.

“Satisfied!
Pros
While I'm still learning about the features, the onboarding process was incredibly helpful. The product itself is intuitive and user-friendly, and whenever I encounter any issues, the customer service is excellent!
Cons
Regarding a third-party service, the deposit limits for bank accounts can be annoying. While I understand the need for withdrawal limits for security purposes, deposit limits often cause difficulties for association homeowners who want to make large payments against their accounts, whether to prepay for the year or catch up on past due assessments.

“Absolutely Terrible Company
Pros
What I loved about Buildium was that when I decided to switch, they made no mention that my data wouldn't be exported or accessible before they deleted it.

This is the worst customer service and user interface I've ever encountered.

Pros
It's easy to navigate, offers online rent payment functionality, and simplifies maintenance processes.
Cons
The customer service is terrible, and the reports can't be customized adequately without manual intervention. There is no integration with QuickBooks, and it's impossible to delete old leases. It's also not suitable for commercial properties.

“Updating Bank Account is a NIGHTMARE - Beware
Pros
Obtaining ledgers for court filings and managing tenant evictions has been a simple task with Buildium.
Cons
Buildium allows for time wasting. It lacks parking and vehicle data, tenants cannot update their own information, and the leasing process is a complete chore. I don't even use the maintenance feature because it's a nightmare. Understanding the accounting is not possible, and printing ledgers in a useful format for court is challenging. The system shows one thing on the screen and prints something else. Sending messages to all relevant parties is a joke, and managing, deleting, and adding property tasks is incredibly difficult. When we bring up issues that need addressing, they seem to take it as a joke. They announce unnecessary developments as "great and new" while disregarding the suggestions we make. I wrote a review on Mar 24, 2020, 11:46 AM, and none of my suggestions have been addressed. This company and their software make a mockery of my time.

“The Worst Rental Managment Software
Pros
While the rent listings are useful, there could be some improvements made to the tenant portal in terms of documenting service requests.
Cons
Buildium has its shortcomings, such as e-pay, poor interfaces, limited services in the accounting software, and listing properties as "apartments" on websites instead of their actual types. The list of issues goes on and on.

“transformed my property management business
Pros
Buildium has pleasantly surprised me with its extensive range of features and functionality tailored specifically for quick and simple property management. The clear and organized arrangement of different sections makes it effortless to locate and access the necessary information, which is fantastic.
Cons
I'd like to highlight that there are occasional delays in page loading and system response, which can slow down my work and be frustrating when I need quick answers. It would be great if they could optimize their performance to provide a smooth and uninterrupted experience.
