Attaching pictures with the letters per NRS 116 requirement. Downloading multiple HOA's and just being more efficient.

They are easy/quick to learn whether they are intuitive or not. As it syncs with our operations and accounting software, we were even more pleased with it.

Great experience, very user friendly and easy to train new employees on.

User friendly and easy to use and edit your templates if needed.

Creating Compliance letters for my HOA's is easy. The software is user friendly and my letters can be customized, for better communication with Homeowners.

Ease of adaptability, and what the different modules can provide.

Architectural process is seamless. Great to have all notes and backup info in one, easy to search location.

It is incredibly user friendly and offers many different features.

As we continued to bring in more doors, the need for a simpler and more effective way to keep up with violations was necessary. SmartWebs allowed for us to send multiple violations while on property.

SmartWebs is a useful software that integrates well with our VMS. The features currently in place are intuitive, and when improvements are proposed, they are truly considered.

Good for HOA Compliance and Community Transparency.

Smartwebs is a great service provider, moderately easy to use, great automation, has improved the speed at which we can do our jobs and the level of service we can provide as a management company.

Great customer service and product that continues to evolve and improve with time.

We are a waterfront resort that has numerous new builds and Smartwebs has been a lifesaver on them all, THANK YOU.

My only complaint is the UI for work orders and the lack of advance notice on software changes.

In general, the screen to label the compliance letter and add a picture has a good workflow. I like being able to search the letter history.

Integration is simple and the software is easy to navigate.

I love it for the ease of reporting to the Board and am looking forward to getting the work order system in play.

Some of them have trouble logging in, then it takes time for the Support Dept to see what is occurring, too much time is wasted.

I personally love smartwebs compared to any other service I have used. Best software hands down.

I like the fact that a letter can be generated in seconds with a photo inserted in the letter and the letter is automatically emailed or mailed to the owner.

Sometimes the HTML or coding in the letters can be difficult to navigate or understand if not familiar with this type of coding.

I have only one complaint and that is about the categories not being able to be used more than once.

Great tool for property management that  tracks you through a community and lets you send letters with ease.

Delays on occasional syncing, and restriction on template letter changes, but minimal issue compared to previous software used.

Smartwebs was easy and cost effective to implement to help us and our clients efficient and organized when reviewing HOA violations and Architectural Requests.

As I mentioned before, integrating personalized letters into the program and saving them. Choises of violations are sometimes not applicable.

Also, when loading a picture it flips it upside down, very rarely does the picture load correctly and it is very frustrating.

Integrations with connect was quick and easy, I love the lay out and the way it functions, easy to send out decisions to the homeowners and read the form for notes from the committee.

I also love the touch free mailing, that has been a huge timesaver.

If I could find a competitor that was half ass competent we would change in a heartbeat. Goal is to find a reasonable alternative this year.

This is a great program to track violations in the community management field. Makes it super easy to use a and track.

Super intuitive for the most part and if you're ever stuck the customer support is quick and amazing.

If an owner got a Denial on a project, he has to be charged AGAIN to submit the same project.

The over all is great  offers a lot of options.

The software makes being a board or committee member much more efficient and keeps costs down with mailing and postage.

Integration was seamless as it merges with our software, VMS. And we have multiple communities who benefit from it.

After dealing with other systems like TOPS, VMS and AppFolio I will always HIGHLY RECOMMEND Smart Webs over any other. The process is just a simple few clicks and its all sent etc.

SmartWebs is first and foremost very user friendly. Features work seamlessly, set up and integration is extremely easy, and if something goes wrong customer support responds very quickly.

Smartwebs helps me be efficient with my time, and the user interface is intuitive. Anything that saves time and is easy to use is well worth using.

Extremely poor customer response. Difficult getting replies to problems.

Smartwebs is a great tool for property managers.

When using it for violations, the time it takes to take  photos, pick violation, type the details and queue requires too much time.

Fantastic tool to have on-site inspections, the tracking fields populate great when driving through large communities and help reduce our inspection/letter time in half.

Customer Service was horrible. You could not talk to someone when you wanted to.

It was simple enough, even for a novice user like myself. The fact I could integrate it with my bank account and automatically enter expenses and raise invoices with my own branding etc. was great.

The single most annoying thing about it is the support.

The FreshBooks/Xero integration stopped working around 2017 (I don't know why; each company blames the other).

We were currently using Quickbooks, which had, at the time, very limited cloub-based capability. Xero looked great, was easy to use, and made it possible for our virtual team to work together.

I love how easy it is to sync bank feeds and reconcile transactions. I love the rule feature that allows me to set my routine transactions to the correct COA.

There is more information in the project tabs than what you can obtain in the report which is disappointing.

I believe Xero have captured a very nice niche of the industry with it's very business orientated user interface and simplisitic feel. It makes accounting somewhat fun for the business owner.

Ve not used the full power of Xero yet but so far it’s been great in helping me keep track of real time spending etc. It’s certainly an asset to the business and I’m learning more as I use it.

Finances are easier to keep up to date and more frequently, the software updates are seamless, the reports are great, the integrations are outstanding, and the service is super.

Every feature I need is an extra add on charge. The remember me at login does not work and I have to waste time with 2 step login every time I leave the computer for 5 minutes.

Xero has been a great experience for me. If you want software that can automatically allocate transactions when and where you need them to go, save yourself time and check out Xero.

Great software, price is affordable for small businesses.

Xero is easy to use (with a little direction perhaps) and it's been great for invoicing, payroll, and tracking our finances.

Easy to share with accountants. A thoughtful social enterprise discount given too.

And there are odd glitches in the reporting (cannot recall all the details now, I only have one client left using this app) that I had to watch out for.

Appalling Software - Avoid at all Costs in My Opinion.
