Rent Manager vs Glide: Which is a better fit?

Jordan C.: My name is Jordan. I am a leasing and marketing manager of a company with less than 100 employees, and I give Rent Manager a five out of five. So we are a newer company, so we did have a few systems that we tried before Rent Manager, but nothing that really stuck. Since we have both multifamily and single family properties, Rent Manager was one of the only options that offered both capabilities for us, so we have used that very strongly since almost the inception of our company. Rent Manager has worked great for us to both manage single family properties as well as multifamily properties. We love the customization options that we have, and in addition, it has worked great for us. Being able to get started with Rent Manager has been great. In addition, you can really customize your own reports, which we have genuinely appreciated. Additionally, any questions that we have, we can work with that customer service team and they are very quick to answer and always willing to help. I think the biggest thing for us is that we genuinely have to work to customize those reports. So working with your team and working with Rent Manager's team to make sure that you can get the information needed.

David K.: Hi, my name is David. I'm a real estate transaction coordinator, and I rate Glide five out of five. So I was using zipForms to create real estate documents and a lot of the process is not automated. It doesn't really necessarily always set up signatures for you or suggest the documents. It doesn't have templates that you can kind of add the same documents every single time. So you're really going through a whole list of forms and you're selecting all the required forms kind of again and again. So I started using Glide, it was recommended to me by a friend and I tried it out. And what I loved about it was the automation, that you could instruct the app of what documents you wanted to use for each type of transaction. So it would automatically pop up with the list of the 20 documents that you needed. And the other thing that I really liked about Glide is in real estate our clients have to fill out these really long questionnaires that just have tons of questions and when we would send these things through DocuSign or zipForms without having an app to partner with it, they would have to see all of the questions all at once, the full seven pages and be a little bit intimidated. Glide really condensed it down to where they would put one question on the screen and it was just asking you like, "Hey, do you have a fireplace?" And it was so much easier for our clients to focus on when it was just one question on the screen, they could hit the next button versus just having to see the whole questionnaire all at once. Glide is awesome because integrating it to what you're already using is going to be simple. If you're a transaction coordinator, Glide can directly link up to your car.org real estate account. It can link up to the transactions and the documents you need. It can link to your DocuSign account for sending things for signature. It will even prepare the DocuSign envelopes with the signatures already in the proper place, or at least Glide's estimation of the proper place. And I got to tell you nine out of 10 times it is right. So it doing those signatures automatically for you is going to save you a lot of time in the long run if you're doing 70 transactions a year. If you're thinking about getting Glide, my advice for you is that it's already included with your real estate deals as one of the partner programs and apps. So it's going to be an easy step for you to just download it and start using it. The amount of time that you're going to spend training and watching different videos is literally less than two hours, because most of what you're doing is integrating directly with all of the programs like zipForms and DocuSign that you're already using, and Glide is going to do the rest of the work in terms of setting up the files and the documents and the questions for you.
