Pros

“I use it internationally, and it doesnt have options for multiple currencies , i have to switch all accounts to euros, and back to dollars, depending on what account and property. ”

David B.

Manager

“I wish it had better options for expanding our business, as we are moving from only house and apartments to motels and hotels as well and Buildium doesn't have great option for that, so we will have to switch some of our properties when we find another option for those.”

Alexis R.

Property Management

“The different types of reports that I can pull, customize, filter and export are wonderful for providing to our Rental Owners.”

Kelli M.

Manager

Pros

“Additionally, the seamless smart lock integration—which automatically generates a unique access code for every single guest—provides incredible peace of mind and makes check-in entirely hands-off."”

Susan V.

Owner

“What has been amazing for me is the owners portal were they can access their calendar, view reservations and block dates for personal use, this has given my company a great transparency view from their perspective.”

Manuel M.

CEO

“The platform provides a centralized system where we can handle reservations, guest communication, pricing, and channel management all in one place.”

Claudia M.

Property Manager

Cons

“The reports are very boiler plate and require you to download them as an Excel in order to Change the names manually in excel reather than having customizable options.”

Ally N.

Condominum Manager

“There is no audit trail. When billing errors occur, you cannot trace what happened, when, or why, which makes disputes nearly impossible to win.”

Hannah M.

Property Manager

“My only complaint is that we use Buildium for a commercial portfolio, one of our strip malls has separate fire (street) numbers for each unit.”

Cassandra D.

Real Estate Specialist

Cons

“A few features are missing or limited for traditional hotel workflows—for example, you can’t easily hold back door codes for guests who haven’t submitted a credit card, and there’s no way to send an itemized line-item invoice; it has to go out as the full reservation balance.”

Christopher F.

General Manager

“The main drawback I’ve experienced is the amount of time it took to resolve a group billing issue—over three weeks. While the support team was polite and eventually resolved the problem, the delay impacted our workflow and created challenges for managing a time-sensitive reservation.”

Kaylyn V.

AGM

“I added guesty accounting and it has not worked for me. Since I live in mexico, it is not an option to add multiple taxes and I have not been able to automize my owner reports.”

Manuel M.

CEO
