I have only used it for 3 months and so far so good. Customer service is pretty good with things that they can answer quickly.

I love having the support staff to answer questions and helping with learning the program. Love the online payment portal for tenants.

For bookkeepers the easy integration of Xero and Quickbooks online is fantastic.

Hard to set up late fee charges for each unit. Even tenants paid on time and their balance is $0, the software post late fees and no option to modify settings.

We previously used another one and Buildium is so much more organized , easy to use and the support is amazing.

For accountants it is frustrating with the reports. For our owners it is even more frustrating.

It has also been glitchin from time to time and that can delay applications and tasks and it's very frustrating.

Our owners know they are in good hands when they can easily see where there money is spent and feel confident that we are protecting their investment.

Sometimes we type in a name and it doesn't come up, but other times it's there. It's hit or miss on the search feature not working properly.

They the expectation wrong, which can lead only to lack of preparation and difficulties to implement. Onboarding team is rushed and does not provide enough support.

Clients get confused as they think that means the application fee is being charged before I, the processing agent, even sees the application.

Their tech support has been outstanding over the years. I highly recommend this product to any landlord or property manager.

Easy to navigate and love the way everything integrates.

Ease of staying on top of maintenance and rent/fees. Love that I get notifications when something is overdue or when a tenant submits a maintenance request.

Buildium is an awesome program to record and track tenant payments, issues, maintenance requests, etc. For the most part it is user friendly.

Great program, I came from TOPS and this is more affordable and easier to use.

Great product,  user friendly,  easy set up,  reliable and convenient. Great for any size business.

So comfortable to use from filing to email/texting collecting rent this is an awesome software.

I really love all the features buildium has from all the information we input in to it and it makes it all so helpful from top to bottom.

There are a few items that seem so obvious to have, but are missing. I can't customize reports, which is a real bummer.

Without the great service that we used to enjoy, I find myself thinking more about price shopping. There are other good software options, what we were in love with was Buildium's great support.

Although the customer service was amazing. They always answered my question as best as they could and would spend even hour(s) on the phone with me.

I am not familiar with accounting and have problems sometimes.

Many nicely laid out functions, good tech support with any issues or questions, easy to use and teach new team members, integrated inspection app, has a mobile app function.

If you accidentally miss a document or upload them in the wrong order (as is required in my agency) you have to delete them and start all over again.

MCS was our perfect software solution because it simplified our in-house processes.

Batch invoicing works really well for us too. We can review them before they are sent and we now distribute the majority of them by email or EDI which has saved us time , effort and money.

They have made the transition from our previous rental solution to MCS seamless. They work with the utmost professionalism and friendliness and are very approachable if we have any queries.

Our favourite part of MCS is the efficiency it brings to us as a business. For example, we save at least 10 minutes per contract when it comes to invoicing, as there is no need for manual processes.

We have been using MCS for over 13 years now and have always had a good positive working relationship.

Bespoke and user friendly system hugely improves our productivity.

Inventory and monthly invoicing no longer a chore.

The implementation process was slick, easy and very professional. It was by far the best experience I have had when implementing a new system.

Occasional connection issues but the friendly helpdesk always on hand to help rectify. Overall very pleased with the system provided, both configurable and futureproof.

Since having MCS-rm, we have had the confidence we needed to grow.

Can be tricky to navigate some of the profiles and permissions.

Any small issues that have arisen have been solved “on the fly. Maybe WE will discover some issues in the future, but we have no worries about them being handled promptly on request.

Although has no effect on the system operation some areas can look a little congested overtime.

I have always enjoyed a good working relationship with all the team at MCS and feel as a user we help with decision on future developments.

Used for 10 years and very satisfied. Easy to use software that simplifes our routines.

MCS has given our business the confidence required to be able to grow and has given our teams back valuable time to spend with our customers.

Its a complete scam and have no understanding of the word loyalty.

It has already improved our operational efficiency and has already shown its real value.

MCS works great and is easy to use when you get to know the system.

The MCS Support desk team are quick to respond to support calls and are always helpful with solutions and improvements.

Pros: Ease of use at user level, quick to learn and dramatically reduces user error once familiar at the operation. Easy to see and calculate revenue and pipelines and great at tracking assets.

A COMPLETE, INTUITIVE AND RELIABLE SOFTWARE SOLUTION FOR OUR GLOBAL RENTAL BUSINESS.

MCS has also helped us to improve our customer service with better document control through quoting and contracts and then obtaining signatures through MCS E-Sign.

We know there are cheap, alternative rental software packages on the market, but these tend to be aimed at the smaller business - often falling short in functionality somewhere along the line.

We have a very good, respectful and trusting relationship with the MCS team. Our favourite part of MCS is probably its mobile capabilities.

As a business, we have loved these time savings and improved efficiencies as it means we can be more customer-focused and enhance their journey with us.

Updates are frequent and well thought out and support via the Account Managers and the Helpdesk is seamless.
