I used to love meld and then you launched the new meld experience
I appreciate the constant customer service, but sometimes I get wrong answers which is exhausting, and I feel like at the end of the day you aren't asking property managers what they want. You are just making changes without asking if your customer needs/wants it.
PROSI like that repairs can stay separate from other sources. Its a one stop shop. I like the multi chat interface, that is very nice. I used to love meld a lot before this new experience.
CONSThe new meld experience. It is made horribly.
Reason for choosing Property Meld
We liked the interface better then Appfolio

Easy to use solution
Everyone on our team from the office staff to the maintenance manager down to the individual technician all say that Property Meld brought us out of the stone ages. The automatic responses, tenant scheduling requests to uploading photos directly to the meld have improved our efficiency and accountability.
PROSProperty Meld integrates nicely with Propertyware and provides us with the ability to know in real time where our techs are and what they have accomplished. In the past we had to wait for the paper slip to return.
CONSNot all of our tenants use Meld. We are working on training our existing residents on the new platform. [sensitive content hidden] provided us with some great resources to push out to our staff and the tenants.

Excellent Experience. Valuable Tool
After doing almost all of our work orders in our enterprise software and through email and phone calls for the last 10 years, we identified a communication issue between tenant, vendor and property manager. We spent several months identifying several versions of work order software that provided various solutions to the issues we were having. After demo-ing two different solutions, it became clear that Property Meld was the absolute best choice. It solves problems we didn't even know we were having and after just a few months, our tenants and property managers have provided 5-star feedback. The most valuable pieces are that Property Meld connects the vendor and tenant and allows our Property Managers to be managers and not get stuck in the middle of a maintenance request scheduling it, getting keys and there is absolutely no chance a work order sent to a vendor can fall through the cracks. The daily summary emails helps our mid-level management staff keep track of what is going on in our manager's portfolios and really allows them to take an active role in their career development which is a value at Dodson Property Management we take very seriously. Finally, the customer service is unlike any software company we use (and we use a lot). It is personal and has made the transition easier than I could have ever imagined. Overall, this product gets an A+ from me.
PROSThe customer service and time saved for our property managers
CONSI wish it could pull new properties from our enterprise software.

Doesn't work well with AppFolio
It has taken hours to try to make it work well with our current system. It has created more work instead of less work for our company.
PROSThe ability send multiple estimates and limiting the time vendors have to accept the work order.
CONSIt doesn't integrate well with AppFolio.
Reasons for switching to Property Meld
The metrics were offered in Property Meld but not in AppFolio.

Not user friendly for vendors
I would urge any property manager considering using this software to manage work orders they send to vendors to consider ease of use on the vendor side. Property Meld makes it difficult to communicate with our property manager clients, adds extra steps to our current processes, and overall makes it take longer to service our clients and/or provide them with estimates. We are almost never given enough information to adequately service our property manager clients, and with the only way to communicate being through Property Meld messaging, it takes a long time to get the proper information in order to set up a work order on our end. There is also nowhere to attach files to a message, so if the property manager doesn't provide proper contact info, we cannot send estimates. Managers often take a long time to respond. It also takes our processes longer because instead of just writing up a work order in our system, getting it done, and sending the bill, we have to update it and submit invoices through PropertyMeld.
PROSIt is nice to know that some of our property manager clients have a system for keeping records of work orders submitted to vendors.
CONSLack of information submitted to vendors, disrupts vendor's normal processes, inefficient for vendors to use, makes communication difficult.

Terrible Customer Service
As others have stated - beware of the 12 month contract. We started the implementation and it was clear this would not work for us. They also misled us about some aspects of functionality. We had very candid discussions with them about our needs and they refuse to terminate the contract. IT sounds like word is spreading throughout the industry about these guys.
PROSNothing - the platform does not work for us
CONSThis requires all users including the vendors, owners, and tenants to create accounts outside of your property management software. Expecting vendors to do this is ridiculous.

Property management software that does it right!
It's super quick to get started, with an intuitive interface. Now everyone is kept in the loop when we have to do maintenance on our units, and the few times I had to email for customer support, they got right back to me.
CONSThis is my first go at a professional management software suite, so I can't really compare it to the competition, but Property Meld has everything I need so far to perform apartment maintenance, and the company seems open to feedback and feature requests.

Extremely disappointing, shady business operations
During our first on-boarding meeting we realized that the product did not work as pitched. We alerted the on-boarding staff immediately and told them to "hold". Keep in mind this was 10 days after signing the contract and the FIRST DAY we were able to meet with onboarding staff. We investigated the product for another week and had a meeting scheduled to sit down with them again and see if we could still make it work. We could not. They offered a reference to another Property Management company who is bigger than our company and using Property Meld successfully. After I talked with the director of that company, he had confirmed all of the shortcomings that I was seeing.We asked to terminate our contract before we moved any data into Property Meld (during the sales process we were told we had 90 days to terminate and back out of the contract). The staff said that they would not issue a refund and that we would still be charged for the remaining 2 months (of the 90 day period).
PROSThe idea of this software seemed to be spot on but the functionality was not there. This is a good product for a small property management company but is a bad idea for larger companies when there are better solutions available.
CONSWe were misled during the sales process and told basically that we could use the functionality of the in-house maintenance side of the software and that it would sync to our Buildium billing. That is not possible with this software right now. It does NOT do that. You have to manually create your own invoices if you are tapping in to the in-house side of Property Meld. If you use the vendor side of the software, the invoices sync but the accounting categories do not sync. So you STILL have to manually update and create EVERY billin Buildium in order to have proper accounting. With 12 full-time maintenance techs on staff, switching to this software would've caused us to have to hire another full-time admin to deal with all of the manual billing and accounting needs that would arise. The staff at Property Meld were more concerned with making a sale than actually ensuring the software was a good fit for our company.
Reasons for switching to Property Meld
We were sold on Property Meld doing a better job than Buildium's in-app maintenance system. This was not the case however. We are back to using Buildum for maintenance and maintenance billing/invoices.

Great software for tenants, vendors, and managers for all maintenance administration!
We manage about 70 properties out of our Property Management Firm, and have been trying to schedule and track all maintenance using spreadsheets online. This has not worked well, and repairs keep getting missed, leaving tenants upset and causing us more work cleaning up the messes with tenants, clients, and vendors. PropertyMeld allows us to follow each tenant request for repairs, assign it to a vendor, and track the status of the work. Tenants are automatically notified when a vendor needs to reschedule, and it is easy to track long-term jobs that require specialists or special-order parts. It is also very easy for tenants and vendors to post pictures of items needing repair or completed work, making it very easy for us to keep our clients informed about repairs and documentation that work was completed satisfactorily.
PROSEase-of-use and simple functionality. Other software we reviewed to track maintenance seemed to offer so much more than just maintenance, making the interface confusing. Searching for properties, open repair tickets, status of repairs, etc is easy to find, and the software is very intuitive to use.
CONSIntegration of financial reporting would be nice, but then I am concerned we may loose some of the simple functionality and ease-of-use of this software.

Yay! Thank you Property Meld for making property management so HIP & EFFICIENT!
Hey there, it's Kassandra Rose, I am a founder, owner and designated broker for a successful property management company located outside of Seattle, Washington. With nearly a decade in the real estate industry and after handling thousands upon thousands of transactions, we've just recently switched our ENTIRE maintenance department over to Property Meld!
PROSWe are now able to talk to our vendors and residents in real time! YES!!! The live chats, instant push notifications and accountability for all parties is priceless. Exactly what we were looking for. It's incredibly refreshing to work with such a forward-thinking company that actually values and implements our suggestions!
CONSWe know that you are a young company changing an otherwise out-dated and antiquated industry. Just hurry up, we can't wait to see what is up your sleeve next!

CONSIt approves the schedule before it. Approves the job work order. Then by the time it approves the work order my personal schedule has already altered. Property mailed. Also failed to give me final approval. Their upload for before and after pictures is not sufficient it will not let me properly load up quality size pictures. It’s very impersonal and I’m sure it’s great for all of the lazy landlords but real pain do use if you are a vendor trying to feed your family and stay on schedule
