We were sad that our account rep was switched though.

I love being able to filter all different kinds of work orders, add comments, and run reports for anything I need.

Sometimes the system lags when jumping from page to page.

It's very easy to use and gives you the ability to make any request you may need.

It is important to be an innovative company that is always taking advantage of the latest trends in technology.

Everything I need to do is accessible and easy to understand. The inclusion of a mobile app makes making reservations and submitting requests all the more convenient.

This year I'm having trouble even getting anyone to respond to my emails about our current issue (no guest arrival notifications for OVER 1 MONTH).

Most questions are resolved by a live person immediately. They are always willing and flexible to listen and look for a work around if the system can't currently do what we are asking for.

Once we had it set up - it has been a huge time saver for our management team. Customer Service has been outstanding as well.

As a company we believe Building Engines is an excellent tool to improve efficiency and transparency when it comes to showing tenants how productive we are.

Here's the problem: Customer service and care is greatly lacking. Every year at some point I stop receiving guest arrival notifications.

Once your request has been assigned there are no updates in-between when you submitted the request and when the contractor shows up.

Sometimes it can be a bit glitchy, but that is probably user error. I really don't have much to say that would be a negative.

We have been using this system throughout our portfolio for almost 8 years now. Their support staff has changed, but is always available and helpful with any questions/concerns we might experience.

It’s a great place for tenants to place work orders and make reservations for amenities, as well as for management to track leases, insurance, billing and correspond with tenants.

The ease of submitting work orders is great, and our building has set it up with a comprehensive category list.

User friendly operations, easy to follow instructions and access to needed information. Friendly professional deployment staff.

The system is designed for field based tech's and is a bit clunky for site based staff. Reporting is very limited.

Not able to report on SLA clock stopped duration or retrospectively update HelpDesk tickets. Different mobile version for engineers that is far less detailed and functions differently.

Lastly, where most of these softwares fail, in my opinion, is bulk export of everything.

System is slow,cumbersome and difficult to work with.

Added to notes on job can be a bit tricky. Viewing pictures on pc is terrible.

Deceptive costs...  and i wasted 20 hours entering data.

This is infuriating when you are trying to talk to a tenant and have entered a lot of info, only to find you have to start all over again.

I actually love that the customer can accept or deny my estimate sent to them by email. I also like that it turns your accepted estimates into jobs.

We are still at the implementation stage of using Loc8 but I can see the benefit this software will have for our company. Loc8 is  a great tool for equipment tracking and asset management.

To enter warranty details, you have to start at 1970. Unable to delete task, everyone makes mistakes! the window to add a new task and makes it hard to identify the correct task.

We are a small company but are growing quickly and are hoping to find a software that will help us expand and grow without breaking the bank.

The calendar wasn't functional. The time when we scheduled the jobs were off and messed us up on our appointments.

Sound public API, brilliant support and ability to build custom dedicated interface are the key points of  the success.

The response from LEM is always pretty fast. And they are really nice and very helpful.

Good for work order management and keeping track of outstanding jobs. It is easy to create a work order either as an administrator or a mobile user.

Extremely good service, easy to use and incredibly useful. I use this instead of eircode because it is much more useful and easy to use.

It can integrate with other accounting software. It is also very straightforward and easy to use.

I switched because my last FSM software increased the pricing and/or changed the pricing structure.

Excellent customer service, Very helpful with queries, Easy to setup, Easy to use, Good functionality.

This is a tedious task as I have to wait for the information to re-download. If this is done multiple times per hour I am losing time.

Huge cost & time savings, thank goodness CEO said yes.

Great program but similar to what we are using so sticking with what we have.
