We have really appreciated the recent integrations and steps to make the system easier to use. We utilize the task flow internally to track items needed as well as with our owners and tenants. It allows us to easily track the number of requests as well as the work history.

Cons
  • Reconciliation adjustment, please enact a password setting. Having to un-reconcile 4 months to get to the desired date is ridiculous.
  • Fix the notes & loans to have communication between separate companies.
  • Allow for duplicate vendors to merge.
  • Give a re-send option for tenant portal use/creation.
  • Allow to search by Invoice # (reference #)
  • Fix the credit system, allow the transfer of deposits from one unit to be moved to another.
  • When ending a lease, show the ledger adjustments as you add charges/refund deposits etc.
  • Option to see duplicate transactions!!

Usability
Overall, the system is good and getting better; however, different roll outs have caused the system to regress. Their latest bank automation rollout was a disaster and continues to be an issue. Since the upgrade, I have not been able to sync our bank and Buildium (download transactions).

I have been able to get through to support immediately and they have been awesome in quickly resolving issues. More importantly, their communication when there is an issue which might take some time to resolve surfaces. Getting updates and resolution are critical.

We only went with Buidlium because we had the option to absorb the fees for rent payments. I wanted to provide $0 fees for Tenants to pay online. I'm glad we went with Buildium in the end but that was the only reason we moved forward with them was because we could customize that option to match our business model.
