My Tenant Cloud Experience

Beoordeeld op 9-6-2024

It was a great experience and it was easier to communicate with our tenant through Tenant Cloud.

It was a great experience and it was easier to communicate with our tenant through Tenant Cloud.

Pluspunten

I like Tenant Cloud because it is easy to use and to manage our properties with integration to our website.

Minpunten

We normally ask our tenants to sign-in with their Tenant Cloud account however, Tenant Cloud does not immediately place "Australia" as the default country of origin. In this regard, some of our tenants have rent balances in USD instead of AUD.

Teantcloud is an amazing RMS offering a full suit of features at a great price. The support team is extremely attentive and always works with us personally to find solutions and implement work arounds for us when permanent solutions will take time to implement insuring we never loose productivity.

Pluspunten

We love the price point of Teantcloud and the features it offers, while there are definitely more “polished” RMS out there TenantCloud is an easy to use full featured program.

Minpunten

The worst part about Teantcloud is the lease builder (which they say is getting a refresh) and accounting. The lease builder is VERY clunky but as a “set and forget” type thing I understand why it’s a low priority. The second of my gripes with TenantCloud is the externally basic accounting, as my company has grown it’s just not enough anymore. Teantcloud does integrate with QuickBooks Online but as a company who uses Xero we are left with a disconnected workflow.

Pluspunten

Everything in one place from advertising to record keeping to payments

Minpunten

The most difficult system I’ve ever used for anything…none of the steps make sense and everything seems impossible and the only answer are NO, the system doesn’t do that.

THE Perfect Solution for ANY Property Management Company or Simple Landlord

Whether you are a company or an individual managing a few properties, I would HIGHLY recommend Tenant Cloud. Their customer service has always been a 5-Star experience for me and my team, and they have helped accommodate all of our needs.

Pluspunten

We have experienced multiple platforms of Property Management tools, and Tenant Cloud is by far our favorite. It is SO inexpensive, extremely easy to navigate, clean, simple, and perfectly functional for our company's needs. We currently have about 30 properties that we manage through TC, and the sky is the limit with this software. I personally love how easy it is to store property data, list vacant properties, field applications, and background checks - all offered in TC.

Minpunten

Honestly, I have yet to run into an area where TC hasn't already thought of it and de-bugged it. I have no complaints to date.

Beoordeeld op 17-7-2023

It's okay for the money, but could definitely use improvement.

It's okay for the money, but could definitely use improvement.

Pluspunten

Online portal for reporting maintenance needs

Minpunten

Don't take me back to the dashboard transactions when I finish a task, instead let me go back to where I was "new tenants vs all tenants, etc) so I can continue with the next owner, tenant, etc. Let me add multiple tenants to a lease, even if they don't "connect" to each other in the applications. Pre-populate an amount in the distribution section so I don't have to remember how much I need to send to an owner. Easier accounting - let me pick an owner when I need to bill a tenant, so the payment gets posted to the owner's account more easily, or to my own account. Let me add to the accounting options for more specific charges, & let me decide who is getting paid for these charges (utilities when the property is vacant, etc). Let me add charges like a "monthly pet fee" without automatically setting it up for a management fee, where I have to delete the mgmt fee every month. Show NSF charges! Process payments more quickly. Give me more control over the accounting sections. Show ALL transactions under the owner transaction tabs, not just distributions. Allow more control over the leases. Let me choose when to charge management fees when a lease starts on a date other than the first. I don't want to charge mgmt fees on the date the lease starts. TenantCloud needs to be evaluated and set up by a property manager, not people who don't understand the ins and outs of property management, how to charge fees, etc. I don't like having to post multiple transactions to get one task done.

Overall we're very pleased with TenantCloud, and would refer it to other property managers. While there are a few items I'd like to see upgraded, ultimately the value is great for the price. I tested several PM softwares before deciding on TenantCloud and have been very happy with our decision.

Pluspunten

I like a lot about TenantCloud. To summarize, I like the ability to maintain all property management related features in one place, the ease of use and comprehensive coverage of the accounting feature, the ability for tenants to download the app and submit payments, maintenance requests, etc directly from the app, the reporting functionality is great, and the application process is streamlined and professional looking.

Minpunten

It is sometimes necessary to develop work arounds for simple features that are not available such as: creating an invoice for the first payment due on a renewal lease, viewing a lease that is currently out for signature, etc. It would also be nice to remove the per ACH charge given that can be problematic for some tenants. It also takes 5 - 7 days for funds to credit our account after a rent payment has been made, but it used to only take 1 - 2 days which was greatly preferred over the longer timeframe.

Overall a very good experience. I feel like TC meets our needs well, with additional features we haven't even explored yet. All at an extremely attractive price point for anyone in the business, small or large.

Pluspunten

TenantCloud covers all the bases that we need in order to effectively manage our properties. From property tracking and online listings, to prospective tenant applications all the way through to lease creation and signature. Once in place, tenant payments, communications, and maintenance requests are all handled in one place with continuity across all parts.

Minpunten

I sometimes struggle with the lease renewal process and making sure I am doing things right before actully committing changes. However, recently this is where TenantCloud has really shined. In the first yet or so support was limited to online forums and FAQ's as well as what appeared to be an offshore chat feature that would use the same tools we had and copy / paste answers from these forums and FAQs. In the past year this has all changed and a call to TC Support is now met with knowledgeable persons with a true understanding of the business (many seem to come from PM backgrounds). They will work through challenges with you and help you to confirm you are making the right decisions for YOUR business. Kudos to TC for really stepping up in this area.

Overall I am satisfied at best. It does what I need it to do - though it could certainly be better. The significant changes last year made me regret choosing TenantCloud. If I were just an owner, I'd pursue other options. As a property manager, there aren't many better options out there.

Pluspunten

The best features of TenantCloud are for property managers. TenantCloud enables appropriate interactions between both property manager and owners and property manager and tenants. This capability is the only reason I have continued with TenantCloud.

Minpunten

TenantCloud implemented steep price increases last year, then changed payment processors and added/increased payment processing fees. Unfortunately, once you're setup with all your properties, owners, and tenants, it is difficult to switch to another platform. TenantCloud also does not incorporate true accounting. It does have a transaction page, but doesn't truly track the inflows/outflows of all the money. The effect of some options are difficult to understand when setting things up like a lease.

It's been great so far. Anytime I have had a question the customer service is excellent over the phone.

Pluspunten

The Lease template and the ability to docusign leases and other documents

Minpunten

The ability to customize the the website. For example, we manage a lot of single SFHs and we do not have a property manager on site. It would be nice to take the "schedule a tour" feature off of our page. Instead have them fill out an application and we can contact them to schedule a time.

Pluspunten

Tenantcloud is affordable and it has all of the features that you would need to run a property management business. The is a useful tenant portal and property owner portal. You are able to collect rent online and receive maintenance requests. This is a product that can grow with your business.

Minpunten

The cons are that the financial reporting is not very easy to read and understand. The property owner portal does not show all of the transactions from the property. Transfering money takes 5-7 days. Online payments charge a small transaction fee.

TenantCloud Review

Beoordeeld op 18-7-2023

Pluspunten

We issue a 5-day grace period for rental payments. On the sixth day, a daily late fee accrues. Keeping track of the late fees, over multiple properties, is challenging. TenantCloud allows late fee tracking, decreasing the risk of making an accounting / invoicing error.

Minpunten

We listed a property and received hundreds of leads. Once the property was leased, deleting the leads' information required a click on each name rather than a 'select all' option. Wrapping up the listing was more time consuming because we had to select each unique lead before deletion.
