What We
Like about Quicken Rental Property Manager (continued
from Part 1)
As
we have mentioned earlier, Quicken Property Manager
is actually an all-in-one
personal finance and accounting program for every aspect of your life -
savings, taxes, businesses, investments and rental properties.
We like the
"Accounts" column which displays all your account balances in one place
and gives you a quick snapshot of your overall financial health.
Considering
that it is currently going for $149.99 with free
shipping, this makes it a great bargain if you are looking for a
complete program
to manage your money. On top of that, they offer a 60 Day Money Back
Guarantee as well so that makes your purchase totally risk-free.
The
good thing about buying a Quicken Products is that you can also expect
a first class customer support from Intuit (developers of Quicken), a
company that has been in the accounting software business since 1983.
If
you need help with your Quicken property management software, you can
turn
to their extensive FAQ, discuss your problem with other users in the
Quicken Community forums, or contact the Quicken support team directly
by email, live chat or phone.
To test the speed and quality of
the Quicken support team, we sent them a total of 4 emails with
different questions and requests. 3 of the emails were answered within
the day while they replied to the last email by the next day.
The replies were short but it was helpful and solved our problems.
Overall we were very pleased with their support.
What
We Don't Really Like about Quicken Rental Property Manager
While this
program offers more than enough for the average landlord or part-time
property manager, it does lack some of the advanced features that a
power user or someone with more than 10 rental units will appreciate.
For
example you cannot upload pictures and documents with this program.
This limits the level of details that can go into your tenant and
rental property records such as tenant photos and bill receipts. While
this may not seem like a big deal, someone who is dealing with a large
pool of tenants and rental properties will need it to avoid any
confusion.
If you have a property management business or your
rental properties are being managed by a few people, Quicken property
management software may fall short of your expectations because it
doesn't
allow you to share your program access with others.
Handling
partial payments tends to be a bit tricky because the
remaining
rent owed will be automatically rolled over. You will have to manually
enter the figures yourself.
Our
Conclusion and Recommendation for Quicken Property Manager
 At the end
of our 2 week Quicken property management software review, we find that
it
is well designed and offers great value for money especially if you
want a software that handles all your personal finances as well.
This
rental property software is also remarkably simple to use. In fact it
is the easiest program that we have ever reviewed. If you are using a
property management software for the first time, this program allows
you to be productive right away without wasting time on user
manuals.
However if you own more 10 rental properties or you are
looking for a rental property software with more powerful features and
detailed accounting, then you should consider the more robust Buildium Online Property
Management
instead.
To sum
everything up, Quicken Property Manager is targeted at
the average rental
property owner and it does a good job of making property management
easier and quicker
for them.
