Love Your Property Management Software

You Should Love your Property Management Software

Landlords, property managers, and staff like yourself put a lot of time/effort and even emotion into the workday.

And when technology platforms make work tedious, complex, with difficult learning curves, it’s a drag on everyone.

Property management staff should enjoy their daily work. Getting more done with less time/expense and producing a better service can make you feel good too. Why is it that UX/UI comfort and satisfaction aren’t prioritized in pricey property management software purchases?

Are Poor Tools Getting you Down?

Work studies may focus on fun, engaging camaraderie among staff as the key to work enjoyment.  Their assumption that complex, hard to comprehend, clinical software is beyond performance evaluations, is something we all need to reconsider. The real water test is your staff.

Have you asked your team whether they like the software you have chosen?  Or is it a case of “too late anyway, we’re stuck with it?

HR studies make the mistake of isolating on visible staff engagement, with not enough focus on the best Property Management Software technology they’re using and how they feel about what they’re using.

 

According to a Zednet report, almost three-quarters (72%) of people who have low-stress levels at work say they have access to technology to work productively, while 64% believe that automation helps reduce workload and stress.  So the right technology is good.

 

What Actually Creates a Fun Work Day?

Another study from HBR, found that employees ranked their company as great when they had fun at work.

But why was it fun?

  • problems were solved and tenants expressed satisfaction and gratitude (positive feedback)
  • managers expressed confidence and satisfaction (expectations met)
  • staff felt they were responsible for work accomplished (self-esteem)
  • problem-solving was easier and more effective (efficiency)
  • staff felt more focused, confident and calm (confidence)
  • less manual tasks and micromanagement (tedium)
  • issues were more understandable (less wasted time via vagueness)
  • less worry about what tomorrow will bring (relaxation)
  • the software system was a focal point for team competence (focus)
  • expectations that better pay and days were ahead (optimism)

From Manual to Set it and Forget It

50 years ago, people washed clothing by hand or via wringer-washing machine. No one looked forward to doing laundry, yet now it’s as easy as pushing clothes in the washer with some soap, and it’s done. The settings are all automatic. Set it and forget it.

A lot of property managers and landlords like set it and forget it and it’s not out of laziness. It’s about a lack of grief and friction and instead, good times management.  Chaotic workdays, frustration, friction, delays, errors, and out-of-date legacy apps that won’t cooperate make work seem like a grind.
