very much adaptable to Resort Accommodation,and assistance given after a cyber attack.

CONS

no problems whatsoever, has all the bells and whistles we require to operate a 60 apartment building

Locally present company with a strong business commitment and servicing of backup.

Switching from RMS to Hirum

So far, excellent.

PROS

Very glad so far that we made the switch to Hirum Hisite from RMS. The Support has been 10/10. The Support Team understand english, are local and not off-shore. The system is far more simplified and user friendly and they do not charge you extra to assist with something like adding a new property which RMS did. In fact, RMS charged extra for any little thing they did.

CONS

The Booking Ledger is too busy and needs to be clear and easier to read.

Reason for choosing HiRUM Software Solutions

Friendly, Easy to Understand, Concise, Excellent Channel Management

Reasons for switching to HiRUM Software Solutions

Because RMS charged extra for adding new properties. The Software in general is complex and not User Friendly. The Trust Accounting side of it is okay but the rest is extremely complicated.

Vendor Response

Dear Colette, Thank you for taking the time to leave your positive review of HiRUM. The team are thrilled to hear they have assisted in making your transition to HiRUM effortless. We are always striving to bring our clients the best software possible, and your feedback helps us to do this. We are pleased that you have found HiRUM to be a good fit for your business and we look forward to continuing to work with you. Kind Regards, The HiRUM Team

Big headache.

My parents use this for their hotel business and I'm actively looking to find an alternative for them because this software is a downright headache.

PROS

It has been made with a focus on management right properties. Integrates with third parties.

CONS

- Insanely glitchy - Unintuitive, and many buttons don't even work; graphics look like they've come out of the 90s. - Customer service only during work hours. - Only works on Windows. - Not cloud-based.

Software at its Best

Hirum software has enabled our business to work smarter rather than harder with the tools and mobile applications that cater for changes in our working environment, and in particular the challenges that COVID-19 thrust upon us. We have portability and flexibility that allows us to remotely service our guests and unit owners needs along with the tools to constantly measure, assess and benchmark our performance and adapt accordingly. Hirum are constantly looking at new and innovative ways in which we can better engage with our guests and owners alike, and in doing so allow our business to develop lasting relationships and build upon our success as an accommodation provider.

PROS

Easy of use, functionality, add-on capabilities with the front desk and maintenance Aps, the variety of reports capable of being generated that assist decision making and operational requirements, and ability to meet Office of Fair TradingTrust Account audit processes.

CONS

Not a negative but it would be advantageous to have an interface to the program that allows you to add in externally managed properties but controlled within the same program to allow more accurate reporting from an operational perspective. In other words, two rent rolls (one internal / one external) with Trust Account reporting capabilities but able to be shown as two entities rather than running 2 separate independent Hirum programs to manage these properties.

Reason for choosing HiRUM Software Solutions

The implementation of Hirum software was a no-brainer - it is competitively priced and expertly managed by a fantastic and enthusiastic team of professionals who listen, understand and respond to the demands of a constant ever- changing and challenging industry. As operators we expect and demand more from our programs to allow us to provide responsive tailored solutions to our clientele and for us Hirum allows us to work smarter rather than harder.

Vendor Response

Hi Karen, Thank you so much for taking the time to leave such thorough feedback about our products and your experience. It is our aim to deliver products that assist in making our clients day to day operations that bit easier, and we are thrilled to hear that HiRUM has been able to do this for you. Regarding the two rent rolls, this is absolutely something HiRUM can do provided they are running under the same trust account. The team mentioned they have been in touch with you and assisted you on this one, we're so glad to hear it's been a success. We are very excited for the future of HiRUM, and we look forward to continuing to work with you along the way. Thank you. The HiRUM Team

Very Functional System

I have used many Trust Accounting Systems in the past, Consol, REST, Easy Res, REIMaster to say a few. We have now been using HiRUM for 5 years now and I have always said if you follow the daily reconcile banking steps you won't have to many issues, if any at all. I also check the Cross Referencer & Managers Summary regularly as well this makes for a very simple EOM and EOM Roll. The most important thing is the support team. I am blown away by there professionalism and complete knowledge of HiRUM. If I do require some assistance they are more than happy help and I learn different things or ways to do what I need. Overall they are brilliant to talk to and discuss aspects of HiRUM plus nothing is to much trouble. Great team.

PROS

Great reporting system and the more I use the additional reports the better I like it.

CONS

I originally thought that HiRUM was very clunky and didn't enjoy using the system, that was because I didn't understand it very well. It took me a while to get to know it, but now I am enjoy using HiRUM.

Vendor Response

Dear Bill, Thank you for taking the time to leave such a positive review. We are honoured to have had you as a customer for the past 5 years and look forward to many more years to come. Our team is happy to hear they play a significant role in making your experience with HiRUM so memorable, so thank you for this valuable feedback. We are thrilled to learn that you are making full use of the systems functionalities and additional reporting features, as we believe that every property deserves a tailor-made solution. Thank you again for choosing HiRUM to look after your business and we look forward to continuing to make managing your property easier. Kindest Regards, The Team @ HiRUM Software Solutions

Hirum. You,ll do Me

PROS

When l first started in the industry of property management, I had very little computer skills and if you ask the girls at hirum they would laugh and say "what skills". I was hopeless. They were great for what l put them through. They persisted with me, never got cranky and they got me on my way. The first year l would be on the phone twice a week for about 3 months, then maybe twice a month , then l got it. Now 5 years later maybe once a year when l do a BIG stuff up and guess what ,they still remember me. Now l laugh cos it is so easy too use even for dummy like me

CONS

Not real sure of any dislikes , l only stick with what l need and know how to use. If l get stuck l know l have the girls and [SENSITIVE CONTENT HIDDEN] the technical fella he always would say "don't worry Cookie I"ll get ya going again" and he fixed some real doozy's.

Hirum from a user perspective

Hirum has simplified our business needs greatly. I feel that we are not taking advantage of some of the aspects of Hirum and would like to see online seminars.

PROS

The ease of use we have 3 people that access Hirum 70% of their day. It is very user friendly and easily to become accustomed to.

CONS

Payment option. When a user makes an error or wrong amount entered it sometime mean we have to delete everything and start again

Reason for choosing HiRUM Software Solutions

Some years ago I attended a course and I was looking for a management system and the presenter gave me some informed information on Hirum. Consequently I did not look any further. Have looked at others since (hopefully for a less expensive option) but have not seen any other that would be as user friendly as Hirum

Vendor Response

Hello Danele, Thank you for taking the time to leave us a review. We are so glad to hear that HiRUM has helped simplify your business needs! HiRUM has many great features and we would love the opportunity to help you maximise your use of the software. We currently have our E-Learning Centre on our website, however we are looking to expand into webinars in the near future which is exciting. Stay tuned on what's to come! Thanks again for your feedback, it has been passed on to our management team. We are always looking for ways we can take our customer experience to the next level. Kindest, The HiRUM Team

HiRUM PMS is Amazing

The most important benefits of using HiRUM PMS is that nothing is to much trouble for them to solve, it is done very professionally and quickly which is the main thing when you are a hospitality business like ours.

PROS

The software is so easy to use and covers absolutely everything to do with holiday & permanent letting at our premises.

CONS

Nothing at all, everything is perfect at the moment.

Reason for choosing HiRUM Software Solutions

When we brought the Management Rights 4 years ago the previous Manager was already using it, as it was so easy to use we have not had to look at any alterative products.

PROS

Hirum is user friendly and offers all that is needed to operate our management rights business. The amount of information that can be entered into bookings, the reports that can be generated and the support that is offered all help in the day to day running of an accommodation property.

CONS

As yet there is nothing that I have wanted to do in Hirum that the system hasn't allowed me to do.

Functional easy to use software for managing short-term stay properties

Hirum is the property management system we use to manage our hotel/backpackers. It is flexible enough to cover our various needs (dorm beds, private rooms, tour sales to otherr services we offer.

PROS

This program is easy to use, has a wide range of functionality, easy to train new staff and reports are easily generated and cover the range of areas we require routinely

CONS

The yield management program could be more sophisticated, currently it is quite blunt, though many competitors don't actually offer this component.

Reason for choosing HiRUM Software Solutions

We have yet to find a cost-competitive equivalent PMS that will do what we want and is as easy to use

Reasons for switching to HiRUM Software Solutions

The spreadsheet was just a step up from a paper based system. We really needed something bigger better and more efficient.

Vendor Response

Hello Trevor, Thank you for taking the time to review HiRUM. It's great to see our software has been easy for staff to use and manage your short-term stay properties!
