Hey everyone

What is everyone’s feeling on using a property management app like Rentredi?

Andrew,  I've been using Rentredi for a couple of years.  It is the only one I have ever used.  I chose it because of the low price with the Bigger Pockets discount.  It gets the job done, but there are a few things that I wish were different.  

1. I can't modify how I view properties or rents.

2. After multiple requests, they finally got a total owed placed on the Charges tab under properties.  That doesn't really help much.  If a tenant comes in to pay multiple charges with one payment, my office manager has to get out the pen and pad to figure and place individual payments instead of something similar to Quickbooks where you enter an amount paid and select which invoices you want it to apply to. 

3. Speaking of Quickbooks, if a tenant goes a few months without paying through the app, you have to re-connect them to Quickbooks after the tenant calls because they are unable to pay.  Every time Rentredi wants me to move to another processing company.  I us a property management app to receive less phone calls from tenants and collect less rent in person.

I am trialing a couple others, I will be glad to let you know what I decide to go with if I find one better. 

 Hey William...can you expand on your #3?  Thought Rentredi has ACH processing ability and you do not need to tie in your own...?
