Bostonpost fan
Pros
As a Manager, I think this is the best software I have ever worked with. What I like best are the reports. I can pull a report for almost anything, which saves me so much time. The updates run smooth and do not disrupt daily functions and are reviewed prior to the actual update. I currently use a different software for a market property that does not offer me the ability to research previous invoices, print out resident profile information, and the reports are very limited, so I can truly see the difference.
Cons
The only issue I have is the way you close work orders, it is time consuming.

Boston Post does a really great job with funding layering.
Pros
The complexities around affordable housing such as agency, investor, accounting requirements are well managed with Boston Post. This software also has great flexibility in the structure of allowing access by roles, making it easy to manage who in your Company get's to do what within the software. This is VERY helpful.
Cons
There is no perfect software that holds all the the answers. MRI Boston Post makes great effort to listening and addressing matters as they arise.

Generally terrible customer service
Danielle is great. Most of our staff has learned to just wait and speak with her rather than bother with other customer support staff. We've all found Chad to be rude and unhelpful on every occasion. He'll answer questions by saying, "it should work" (but it doesn't and won't confirm) or "just check the help page". He doesn't ever seem to listen to the actual question but rather explains something we already know how to do. For example: we wanted to know if the reoccurring work order function could/would do more than put work on a calendar. We were hoping it would actually generate those work orders and dispatch them automatically. In a discourteous tone he informed us we should have checked the help page (which we always do just to avoid talking to him) and then sent us the help link for how to create a work order. We know how to create a work order. That was not the question. When we called to see if the lottery function could be run by unit size or other parameters Chad told us "it should work" without out bothering to confirm. Well the feature doesn't work like that and it would have been nice to know ahead of time so we could do our own lottery outside of Boston Post.
Pros
Boston Post software is relatively inexpensive when compared to other property management software.
Cons
Makes even what should be simple functions convoluted and/or generally arranged poorly. Customer service is pretty awful with the exception of ONE person.

I like it's management of the complexity of layered funding.
Cons
There is nothing at this point that I can say about Bostonpost that is displeasing.

MRI Bostonpost for Affordable Housing.
Pros
- Bostonpost makes accounting for Affordable Housing a must. Security is simple to set up and assure the sensitive information is not exposed .
Cons
- Customer service takes for ever to resolve issues. Closing work orders are tedious and time consuming. I feel as if the issues take weeks at a time to get resolved.
