A fund can be totally managed from this single software. Also, any extras or things I needed the software to do they added. Their customer service and implementation are very personal and on a one-on-one basis.

#### Cons

There are so many features it is hard to get them all put in and to remember where everything should go.

#### Reasons for choosing First Rate Vantage

All the other software products were very good at a specific feature but where all missing one piece to the entire fund management cycle. First Rate Vantage had every single thing we needed.

#### Vendor response

Vantage is an excellent partner to enhance the credibility and growth of my investment firm. Their tool provides every detailed KPI for my customers and has created a one stop platform to review existing and new investment opportunities. The modules for internal usage are intuitive and easy to use. It provides a lot of functionality and data to manage the day to day business portion of the funds. Their implementation team is very strong and configures the system to my needs. They have created the system to provide a lot of variety and options, which ensures an accurate reflection on my business. The team goes above and beyond expectations to ensure my system is frictionless for my customers and my internal team. They think a lot about ease of use for the users and have innovative ideas to enhance my brand. I am excited about all the new modules and features they are creating! I cannot wait to continue to grow my relationship with Vantage.

Great customer service and 1:1 support offered.

Vantage is very flexible in terms of supporting us, which is appreciated.

#### Cons

Some specific financial calculations needed to be QA'd but, again, customer support was able to quickly get on a call to resolve/discuss.

#### Reasons for choosing First Rate Vantage

Pricing, flexibility, support all came together for us with Vantage in a way that made sense.

#### Reasons for switching to First Rate Vantage

Better reporting customization and easier to send reporting directly to clients from the Vantage interface.

### Alex’s Review

- Overall rating: 5/5
- Reviewer: Alex B.
- Verified reviewer: Yes
- Industry: Real Estate
- Company size: 201-500 employees
- Product usage: Used daily for less than 2 years
- Reviewed: May 2019
- Review source details: This review was submitted organically. No incentive was offered

#### Ratings breakdown

- Ease of use: 5/5
- Value for money: 5/5
- Customer support: 5/5
- Functionality: 5/5

#### Pros

Overall, I like all the applications that come with the software. We are able to provide all the necessary numbers to our investors and even take it a step further by showing our properties with images. The portal has a lot features that make it easy for them to receive secure documents via upload or through email. Before we got this software we used to track everything in excel and send statements in PDF. Now we have professional statements that are easy to read and look great! The support team is extremely helpful and answer questions fast. Our investors are often impressed. I would highly recommend this software!

#### Cons

The only thing I would say that I don’t like is certain placement of save buttons and drop downs in the back end. I don’t have too many negatives.

#### Reasons for choosing First Rate Vantage

Customization and the features within the software fit our needs.

### I would buy again

- Overall rating: 5/5
- Reviewer: Jason H.
- Verified reviewer: Yes
- Industry: Financial Services
- Company size: 11-50 employees
- Product usage: Used weekly for more than 2 years
- Reviewed: May 2020
- Review source details: This review was submitted organically. No incentive was offered

Over all my experience was fantastic. The system did exactly what I needed it to do and any problems that arose were dealt with quickly and resolved efficiently.

#### Ratings breakdown

- Ease of use: 4/5
- Value for money: 5/5
- Customer support: 5/5
- Functionality: 5/5

#### Pros

Customer Support is Incredible, Vantage will do everything possible to help and make sure it is working. It calculated correctly and saved me personally an immense amount of time. Running waterfalls and creating statements went from weeks of process and checking to days.

#### Cons

It can be difficult to learn processes to make all parts of the system work together. Vantage will work with you as long as it takes for you to learn the process where you are self sufficient, and even then when you forget something they will help.

#### Reasons for choosing First Rate Vantage

We had a complex IRR true-up based waterfall that I could calculate in Excel. Other vendors really were not coming up with the answer or method of calculation that worked with the level of confidence that I needed. Vantage did, it took some time but we worked with each other to make both of our companies better.
