Key benefits of Rent Manager

Rent Manager is a fully integrated property management, accounting, CRM, marketing, reporting, and facility-maintenance software suite that enables users to manage all types of properties.

Users can completely customize the platform and reconfigure multiple aspects; including how reports and documents are generated, the appearance of the interface, and which information is displayed on a user-by-user basis.

The double-entry accounting system allows users to track every aspect of their business’ finances—whether they manage a single community or hundreds of properties.

Rent Manager helps reduce time spent on routine tasks by streamlining daily activities, letting users invest more time in growing their business. Using the rmAppSuite Pro mobile app, property managers can access their data in the field to conduct inspections, communicate with tenants, track violations, read meters, and more, directly from their smartphone.

Rent Manager also provides more than 450 built-in reports designed to help users answer important questions about their operations—from the financial status of their portfolio to services issues, vacancies, rent roll, leasing, and more.

Helped us automate our process and develop systems that allowed us to scale our business fast.

Pros

The capacity to handle all aspects of property management. Maintenance work orders, financial management, automated reporting, owner and tenant login, web based and modern. I have tried all the competitors and none covered all the bases quite like RM.

Cons

No complaints. Any details we were looking for improvement on have been added through one of their updates. RM is progressive and always coming out with improved features and updates to the software.

Good product and support. I primarily changed because of the online payment fees assessed. Much too high, but, consistent with most other products. I found a product that did not charge for online payments. Having complications with that product in features, functionality and service though....maybe that is why others charge.

Pros

Good batch reporting and formating capability
Strong accounting features
Excellent Owners portal...even though most owners do not use. Strong sales tool for Management Company.
Relatively intuitive
Consistent logic

Cons

Mobile application was just rolling out. I did not convert to the mobile solution due to plans to convert to another software. New mobile application might solve some of the Cons.
Pricing: Per seat pricing, set up fee for each additional seat, mobile, web integration, etc. modules additional costs. However, the biggest issue was the $1.50+ charge for Residents to pay online using E-checks. If you have 1000 units paying online, cost is $1500 per month. Too much.
LImited integration with various online posting services.

Response from London Computer Systems

Hi Scott, Thank you for your review. It is possible to pass all epay fees to tenants vs the management company covering the cost, similar to other online credit card processing fees. If this is something you might be interested in, we can gladly help initiate the conversation with Zego to make the switch.

Since RentManager upgraded us to "Premium" support - we have had a higher success rate. Casey has been amazing and VERY responsive. Britany
has also been extremely helpful.
A comparable feature request was finally successfully completed.
We are hoping that we do not have to change companies, but rather, RentManager assists us to be 100% functional for our customer needs.
To date, we have lost 18 homes due to technical issues with our software (email, etc). This is a significant and irreparable loss. I communicated these concerns with Casey and he did his very best to advocate for us in updates to the email information, report functionality, reconciliations and more.

Pros

Provides us with tools to manage effectively.
Allows for reports, letters, media, and more to be used.

Cons

Transitioning from RentManager Xi has been a nightmare.
Marketing formats 100% changed.
Owner information lost in the transition (and more)
Not all Technical support staff on "ground floor" calls were knowledgeable enough to answer questions - some even answering questions/providing information that was incorrect (costing hours of time/money/loss of owners)
API information to Zillow is delayed longer than 3 days or more before being able to be seen on their site.
Low/Zero response to new function requests - even though they provide a way to submit - response is zero.
Medium Response to comparable feature from Xi request - WITH

Response from London Computer Systems

Hi Kristi,
Thank you for your feedback. We are happy to hear that Casey, your Premium Support Representative, has been able to help solve some of the issues you have expressed. We apologize for any inconvenience during your conversion to RM12. This feedback as well as all notes from your interactions with Casey have been sent to upper management to review as we continually strive provide the best service to our customers. We would also like to speak with you further. We will have our Sales and Account Manager reach out to you.

Once everything was set up, the software was relatively user friendly and had a lot of capacity for maintaining information in a multitude of departments within the company.

Pros

This software can link your to a multitude of websites that really aid in effective marketing strategies. There are many different reports that can be ran that are beneficial to a multitude of departments. Generating documents and keeping track of document history was effortless. The customer support for this software is fantastic!

Cons

It can be a little tricky to set the software up to function how you need it too. When setting Rent Manager up to link information directly to our company's website and third party marketing websites, it was so tricky I had to spend a great deal of time with customer support to get things running how they should. Also, creating new reports was tricky and only one person in the company knew how to do it.

Response from London Computer Systems

Hi Dana,

Thank you for your review! Our customer support team really appreciates the shout out. If you ever need assistance with custom reports in the future, our Professional Service team would be more than willing to help out. They work with customers every day creating custom reports, custom tabs, custom integrations, and more. We also offer training such as our RM12 Scripting Virtual Classroom and weekly webinars stored in Rent Manager University.

A Wealth of Features & Could Always Use a Few Tweaks

Reviewed on 2017/05/19

Pros

It is a tenant-centric platform, allowing our residents to see their accounts and pay on-line, thereby reducing our central office workload. We operate 15 or so entities with RM and a handful with QuickBooks. From a financial analyst viewpoint, I prefer QB, because of the easy export features. Still, we have 1,300 + tenants and are re-building occupancy at newly acquired mobile home parks, so our focus is on providing the best face for our residents. QB was not doing that for us. This is a more comprehensive program tailored for the rental world

Cons

For some inexplicable reason, report exports to Excel do not carry the formulas over. It is a huge time waster for those of doing a repetitive analysis of multiple companies. I can only think this relates to some licensing issue. QB does it automatically and I miss that. In fact, I resent that RM does not provide that functionality and don't understand why they wouldn't provide this time and money saving convenience to their customer base.

Response from London Computer Systems

Hi Freehold Real Estate LLC,

Thank you for your review. I apologize that you have been having issues with our export to Excel function. We greatly appreciate your feedback on your software and I will pass your review on to the appropriate parties in our company for further examination and review.
