Response from RealPage
Hi Yonathan! Thanks for your review. The good news is that we do indeed have an app on both the App Store AND the Google Play store. Property Managers and Rental Owners can use the Buildium app. Simply search for Buildium, and you should see the familiar white and green Buildium logo.
We also have direct links to the app in our support article: https://help.buildium.com/hc/s/article/Mobile-App
Hope that helps!

Glad I Converted to Buildium
Overall it has been good. I am getting the hang of the system and believe I will be able to scale my business quickly once I'm ready.
Pros
I just started using Buildium and so far it has been good. Our onboarding calls were great and the team got us set up to use the system in no time.
Cons
I feel like I went into month two behind the curve. My onboarding was complete but there were a few items that I still don't know how to properly do in the system. While there is a lot of support information, my searches don't always find articles I need to support my business. One more support call would be solid.

Buildium gives any other platform a run for their money!
Overall, my experience with Buildium has been great. Like mentioned previously, there are a handful of features that could allow for a bit more efficiency but Buildium is far beyond its competitors the way it is already. It is extremely easy to navigate and also provides a ton of resources for DIY problem-solving which is much appreciated!
Pros
What I like most about Buildium is the user-friendly navigation. I have operated out of many platforms (Yardi, Entrada, DoorLoop, OneSite, Appfolio, RentManager, Guesty etc.) and Buildium is by far the easiest to feel your way through no matter the experience level. I have trained the most seasoned teams to the greenest teams and the way this software is laid out is so practical compared to a lot of other options on the market. Also, we experience way fewer inquiries from tenants and owners than we have in the past in terms of navigating their portals. Maintenance requests, general support needed, owner contributions, report interpretation etc. has been a breeze for our tenants and clients.
Cons
There aren't any features/lack thereof that I don't necessarily like about Buildium, but definitely think the existing Buildium could offer some features that would make day-today operations a bit more efficient:
- Giving tenants the ability to submit their notice to vacate via Resident Center
- Automatically reversing management fees collected on payments that have been reversed
- Create a space on owner/tenant/property pages to interact with/tag other team members so correspondence can be internal/recorded
- Allow for import/export of workorders/tasks
- Allow scheduling of reports to be emailed (monthly/quarterly generated Owner Statements)
- Show At-Will leases within lease renewals
- Add a pop-up feature when paying bills by check (like the Trust Account warning) if a vendor has e-pay info
- Add a report that shows bank balance breakdown without management company income included
Reasons for Switching to Buildium
Better onboard experience, more cost effective, better door options, needed more functionality, "nickel and dime" every click (Appfolio), needed better tenant experience- Industry: Real Estate

Broker and Owner
My experience has been great. Anytime I have a technical issue I can also get someone on the phone or when submitting a support ticket my issue gets resolved fairly quick.
Pros
The platform is very intuitive and robust. It has all of the features one would need to manage a growing portfolio.
Cons
I would love to see more automation features but for what they have it's perfect for me.
