“Certain Available Features are hard to find- example creating a template for Violation, had to navigate through the Software to figure out on how to create a Template, Voting Ballot Description Text box should have formatting capabilities, finding calendar (Events) is not very intuitive, needs to be the one of the easily available option on the left side bar, I don't seem to see an electronic payment option to the HOA Vendor, wish there was one, if there is one I am not able to find it“

### "You Really Can't Go Wrong"

July 16, 2026

4.0

PayHOA gives our small beach community a value added, saving us thousands of board member hours dealing with minutia and helps ensure positive accounting. The platform is a total game-changer for our self-managed community, making daily operations less stressful. This software works so well for us in several ways including: •Ease of Use & User Interface: The system is incredibly easy to use. The clean user interface makes finding tools and navigating menus simple for everyone on our board. •Property Management: Routine property management tasks are now completely automated. Tracking maintenance requests and sending out community announcements takes just a few clicks. •Information Access: Homeowners have 24/7 information access. They can view their balances and community documents anytime through their private portals. This centralized information means board members no longer waste time hunting through scattered paper files or private emails, which dramatically drops the number of daily administrative questions for the board. •Bank Reconciliation: Doing a bank reconciliation used to take hours of manual work. Now, the bank syncs automatically to keep all our financials aligned. •Customer Support: We are new to PayHOA and when we encounter obstacles, the customer support team is helpful. They provide clear, rapid guidance to get thing resolved. Having less than 30 units means a reduction in what was a massive administrative burden. Once initial community data is uploaded, PayHOA transformed our SOPs – allowing the board more time to address bigger issues. When board roles change, the next volunteer instantly can inherits a complete digital history. Every board member has identical, real-time visibility into finances, keeping everyone aligned without manual reporting. This seems to be a game changer to bring this small, outdated community into a new era.

Pros

PayHOA transformed our SOPs – allowing the board more time to address bigger issues. When board roles change, the next volunteer instantly can inherits a complete digital history. Every board member has identical, real-time visibility into finances, keeping everyone aligned without manual reporting.

Cons

The time investment of uploading all unit/community data. Obviously a necessary evil, but for an over-taxed board, it took additional time before we could role it out to for real-time use.

### "PayHoa is great"

June 12, 2026

5.0

It have been a positive experience for the board as well as a money saver for all our members. Dumping our management company and going to self management with PayHOA is probably the best decision the board could have made. As a long time board member I can strongly recommend PayHoa.

Pros

More control for the management of our hoa while saving valuable dollars. The software program is easy and intuitive for the board members as well as the owners.

Cons

There is a learning curve and more work for board members over our previous management company. The conversion from our management company did take some time and effort.

Response from Pay HOA

June 17, 2026

Hey David, Thanks for the great review and strong recommendation. We're really glad the move to self-management has given your board more control while saving your community real money, and that the platform has been easy to use for board members and owners alike. You're right that there's a learning curve when you take things in-house, and the conversion requires some upfront effort. We work hard to make that transition smooth, and our Knowledge Base (intercom.help/payhoa) and support team (support@payhoa.com) are there whenever you want a hand getting the most out of any given feature. Appreciate you being part of the PayHOA community!

### "POA site that all members have access to"

June 16, 2026

3.0

Extremely simple. Easy to take care of payments as well as review expectations of members and process for new homes being built in the neighborhood.

Pros

Everything in one place. Very convenient for all members of the community to have access in one centralized place.

Cons

None uncovered. I haven’t used the site long enough to determine what could be improved upon at this time.

Hi Chris, Thanks for the review. We're glad having everything in one place has made it convenient for your members to find what they need, handle payments and keep track of expectations and new-build processes in the neighborhood. Since you're still getting to know the platform, we'd love to know what would take your experience from three stars to five. If there's a feature or a workflow that would make PayHOA a better fit for your community, that's exactly the kind of feedback that helps us improve. You can reach me directly at earl@payhoa.com. Appreciate you being part of the PayHOA community. Thanks, -Earl Laing VP of Marketing

### "Easy to use, gives competitors a run for their money "

April 23, 2026

4.0

We're actually hopeful that this might be something we can use to self manage one day without a management company. Access is simple, paying is simple, we haven't had any issues with finances as the graphs are amazing. And I appreciate that I'm not constantly spammed with marketing emails but helpful support tips and tricks.

Pros

We came from TownSq which was ok, maybe not worth the money. PayHOA does so much of a better job in terms of ease of use, interface, logging in. You really can't mess it up as it is straight forward.

Cons

We've been on it for less than a year, the duplicate accounts and admin privileges were confusing but other than that, there really aren't any complaints.

Hi Chi, We appreciate the review. We're so glad the switch to PayHOA has been a smoother experience and that ease of use, the interface and the financial graphs are standing out. It's also great to hear you're hopeful this could help you 100% self-manage one day. That's exactly the kind of shift we love to support. On the cons, we'd love to learn more about what you ran into with duplicate accounts. Could you share a bit more detail so we can take a closer look? And on admin privileges, our support team (support@payhoa.com) is always happy to walk through setup and permissions with you whenever it's helpful. Thanks again for the review and for being part of the PayHOA community.

### "Best HOA Software "

June 1, 2026

5.0

Despite some normal hiccups when working with software the staff is always available and able to assist with a resolution.

Pros

The software has all the features a small independent HOA manager needs to run multiple HOA’s efficiently.

Cons

There have been several bank syncing issues and other glitches. Though it was in combination with stripe.

### "Great platform, not so with the support."

July 15, 2026

5.0

The application itself is great but the support is questionable. I’ve sent multiple requests to speak to someone about items on the balance sheet and how to address them, but no response.

Pros

Great value for money if you are able to self-manage. Easy to use interface. Information is easily accessible.

Cons

I’ve requested support in getting some of the accounting issues figured out. I keep reaching out but don’t ever get a call back.

### "More control, lower cost"

June 15, 2026

5.0

We are very pleased with the aspects of PayHOA we have used & are looking forward to using more. We joined on March 1st, 2026.

Pros

PayHOA has been more than my association could hope for. Their services have saved us money & gives us so many options to add. Our \[sensitive content hidden\] find it easy to join & our board appreciates having access to all parts of the platform.

Cons

In a recent resale it seems disclosure info didn't get where it needed to or the realtors ignored the HomeWise docs. We still haven't received the signed acknowledgement from the buyer. The closing was May 29th.

Hi Jan, This is wonderful to read, thank you. We're really glad PayHOA has saved your association money and given your board the access and options you were after, and that your members are finding it easy to join. The resale is something I want to help get sorted out. I'd like to better understand exactly what happened with the HomeWise disclosure on that sale. Could you email me directly at earl@payhoa.com? I'll look into it with our team and follow up with you. Appreciate you being part of the PayHOA community!

### "Longhorn Ridge"

July 16, 2026

5.0

Our experience has been very positive. We would recommend PayHOA to other HOAs. All members of our HOA have access to reports and are able to review financial data

Pros

The software is easy to use, with little training - very intuitive. We stopped using a property management company due to the errors in their reports. We have been able to swiftly and accurately run bank reconciliations, balance sheet and income statement. Customer service was able to assist with the initial install and answer question.

Cons

I wish we were provided with a customer service representative who would be familiar with our account and easy to contact

July 15, 2026

5.0

Very positive, great customer assistance and easy to use platform. I was encouraged to ask questions and the staff helped quickly and efficiently when needed. Our users had a seamless signup process- even those who are not computer savvy were able to get set up easily.

Pros

Ease of setup with very personable assistance from the representative. I was able to create our profile easily on my own and the customer service rep was instrumental in fine tuning our account.

Cons

Finance- lack of specific feature addressing reserve study. Otherwise the software addresses all aspects of our HOA.

### "Solid Choice"

February 16, 2026

4.0

Overall, my experience with PayHOA has been very positive. While there are some bugs and feature limitations that still need refinement, the platform delivers strong value for the cost and continues to improve over time. The system is user-friendly, well-supported by helpful documentation, and backed by a responsive support team. The ongoing upgrades show that the company is actively developing and listening to feedback, which gives confidence that current issues will be resolved. For HOAs looking for an affordable, functional, and steadily improving management solution, PayHOA is a solid choice.

Pros

PayHOA offers great value for the money. Compared to other HOA management platforms, it provides strong functionality at a very reasonable cost. They have been consistently upgrading their system, and you can really see the improvements over time. The platform continues to get better, which shows they are actively investing in development. The site itself is easy to use, both for board members and residents. On top of that, the help articles have been a tremendous resource for residents, making it easy for them to find answers quickly without needing direct assistance. Their support staff — \[sensitive content hidden\] — are great to work with. They are responsive, knowledgeable, and always helpful when questions come up.

Cons

While PayHOA offers strong overall value, there are still some system bugs that can create frustration. There have been issues with exporting financial statements. PDF exports work fine, but CSV exports do not always match the same format and are sometimes missing information, which requires additional manual cleanup. The voting module also has limitations. It does not allow formatting within ballot descriptions — no spacing, no bold text, and everything appears in one continuous paragraph. Additionally, there is no high-level overview of voting responses. To see how residents voted, you must click into each individual ballot rather than viewing a summary. There have also been occasional instances where transactions were recorded to the wrong account when multiple bank accounts are linked within the system. That said, these appear to be system bugs rather than structural issues, and given their ongoing upgrades, I’m confident these will likely be addressed over time.

Reason for choosing PayHOA

We chose PayHOA over these others mainly due to the low price - though it did increase recently. Also the 30 day trial was nice to check out everything before signing up officially.

We've passed it along to our product team, and it's on their radar as we continue improving the platform. It means a lot that you see the progress we're making. We're committed to keep building on that momentum. Appreciate you being part of the PayHOA community.

January 22, 2026

5.0

Professional and friendly staff, who are extremy patient as we ramp up. The website is user friendly. Great enhancements (on-line voting & Homewise Docs) are added regularly.

Pros

Customer support is fantastic - using rhe built in tool or scheduling a quick 15 min video training session are extremely helpful. Great bang for the buck - the HOA is saving a lot of money, compared to the Property Management company previously used. We are able to easily post documents for Board and/or homeowner access.

Cons

Our homeowners have expressed a desire for an app. Homeowners (both on PCs and/or phones) have experienced webpage slowness.

We rolled-out our neighborhood PayHOA program in October and have successfully trained and assisted 98% of our homeowners get comfortable with the tools. The PayHOA team are very responsive and dedicated to resolving any programming issues or mis-connections.

Pros

The PayHOA system has been a critical piece to our young neighborhood self-manage our 121-house neighborhood. For about a $1/household per month, the value for the money we spend is amazing. Quality staff members with a focus on customer service and individual support for our various users.

January 27, 2026

4.0

PayHOA is a great platform but comes with a lot of overhead from the company.. there are assumed items that they just think you know right off the bat where we were left in the dark from our prior management company... it made a very difficult transition. Overall the platform is great but we wish there was a little more customization for communities that our unique like ours.. Overall still enjoy the project JB and the support staff have been great in supporting us since our onboarding.. issues tend to get resolved quickly.

Pros

Easy initial setup with minimal technological knowledge required. The application is also easy to use from a homeowner perspective

Cons

Its hard to manage accounting... balance does not true up the way cash accounting would expect... Lack of support on finances in documented resources

Wonderful support. Very responsive. Easy to find information and access guides. Easy to manage and use among a 5 person HOA board as well!!!

Pros

It's affordable for our small 43 unit HOA. We love the personable interaction and that the customer support and engagement with the company is easy to use, schedule, and feels supportive. It feels very professional and continues to add new features that benefit the effectiveness and efficiency of any size HOA. We have never had any bugs or issues so far.

Cons

The only complaint we have is something we know they're find tuning- the message board doesn't format super well when you post stuff versus when you're designing.

Has been a net positive for our HOA. Great communication platform and covers all key operational processes for us. I am a fan!

Pros

Very straight forward tool. We do not have a complicated HOA operation and this tool is very adaptable. Can go deeper if needed but keeps it simple for our operation.

Cons

Delay in bank / PayHOA balance reconciliation process is sometimes delayed. Also, the cost per credit card transactions is a bit high relative to competition.

### "Simple & Clean, but training course SHOULD BE attended"

January 16, 2026

5.0

This is the first time I've worked with any kind of payment management software and it's been a really good time for me. PayHOA has set the bar pretty high for any and all subsequent experience I have with other companies.

Pros

The user interface is very clean and doesn't visually overload the user with multiple tabs and buttons visible in one space. The support team is dedicated and friendly when working with the board to resolve issues, and even found an issue I wasn't aware of while we were going through some questions I had.

Cons

While the interface is simple, it does mean there is a learning curve to finding out where all the buttons and features are. I didn't attend a training class since my schedule wouldn't allow it, but I'm sure the struggles I had at the beginning wouldn't have been a struggle if I was able to attend an initial training course. PayHOA does offer the training course, and I believe there isn't an additional charge for it, but like I said, I wasn't able to attend for my own reasons.

Thanks for sharing your experience. It means a lot to hear that PayHOA has been a great first experience with community management software, and that we've set a high bar for you. That's what we shoot for. You're right that attending a walkthrough can make the early days smoother. We often refer to these as demos during the trial process, but they're really personalized training sessions, one-on-one with a product expert, fully catered to your organization, and a great opportunity to ask questions. Feel free to reach out to our Success Team at support@payhoa.com. They can connect you with your Account Manager to get one of these sessions scheduled at your convenience. Or, if easier, reach out to me directly. Thanks again for choosing PayHOA. Earl Laing VP of Marketing | PayHOA earl@payhoa.com

### "Great service that saves us time"

February 20, 2026

4.0

Very easy process to sign up and implement. The team is especially helpful with addressing any questions or issues.

Pros

Customer support is great, real people to talk to over video calls. User interface is very easy to use and understand.

Cons

I would give it 5 stars but they changed their fees during our onboarding process. We do not use all their functionalities as well so I wish it was more a la carte for what functions you need and pay for.

More functions for use in the future once we get payments set up

Thank you for the review, Brad. We're glad the platform has been easy to use and that our support team has been helpful throughout your onboarding experience. We hear you on the pricing concern and we're sorry for any frustration that caused. And as you continue getting settled in, there's a lot more to explore when you're ready...especially once payments are up and running. Our Knowledge Base (intercom.help/payhoa) is a great place to dig into specific features at your own pace, and our team can help you figure out what's most useful for your association. Appreciate you being part of the PayHOA community!

### "PayHOA Rescues HOA From Drowning in Debt From Management Fees"

September 2, 2025

5.0

Logging in and using the services has been very easy and intuitive. I actually had a homeowner ask me to do it for them and they were shocked out how simple it was.

Pros

As the president of our HOA, this platform has all necessary information in an easy to access format.

Cons

So far, although it is not PayHOA's fault, we have only gotten 50% of the neighborhood to sign up, which makes communication more difficult.

### "Excellent System"

December 8, 2025

5.0

Overall, I'm very happy with this product. It's easy and the website has knowledgeable article to help you navigate the system for both the clients and the business owners.

Pros

I can do everything I need to do for my business in ONE website. The security is important to my customers and for my business so it helps to know that there are not bugs and issues that come across.

Cons

Printing out checks, It does not let you edit the check margins so it never prints out create and I have to edit myself in PDF form.

### "New users, but great experience"

December 15, 2025

5.0

Lots of features to learn, however easy to navigate once you get the hang of it. The YouTube videos they provide on their channel are very helpful.

Pros

I love how everything is automated. The reporting feature has been beneficial for submitting quick monthly data. We also love how each unit keeps historical data intact for our office to fall back on if necessary.

Cons

So far we just aren’t fans of the scrolling feature on the budget dashboard. There are too many scroll bars to keep up with.

### "Easy to use system"

April 22, 2026

5.0

It's a great system that organized everything into one place and make it all easy to find. The most difficult thing I think was getting everyone to actually register, which really isn't a PayHOA problem.

Pros

The ease of use of the website is very nice. I also enjoy how it organized all the relevant documents.

Cons

The community calendar could be a little more prominent. Sometimes it's a little bit difficult to find.

Hi Rob, Thank you for the great review. We're so glad the platform has made it easy to organize documents and keep everything in one place for your community. Your feedback on the community calendar is really helpful. We hear you that it could be easier to find, and we've passed that along to our product team to take a closer look. And on getting everyone registered, we appreciate you calling that out. We know that first step can be the hardest, and we're always working on ways to make it smoother. Appreciate you being part of the PayHOA community!

### "Frustrated for quite a while, but \[sensitive content hidden\], head of Customer Support, saved the day"

September 25, 2025

4.0

Very rough to start because I could not find training resources. Only after several of our units did not receive dues invoices did I discover by accident that invoicing templates might have expiration dates. An electronic alert would be helpful for such situations. Also, for some reason, expense transactions stopped being listed in transactions although income transactions still were listed. Only after the session with \[sensitive content hidden\] were these items straightened out.

Pros

The live session I had with \[sensitive content hidden\], the head of Customer Support, answered nearly all the questions I had. Before speaking with her, I was ready to recommend our association abandon PayHOA.

Cons

I did not set up PayHOA for our condo association but rather inherited it. The individual that set it up was not available to assist me in learning the system. The only resource I had to learn was a 3 year old intro video that helped a bit but did not provide the detail needed. Until talking with \[sensitive content hidden\], I was not aware of the library of videos available on Youtube. I had done a Google search prior to speaking with \[sensitive content hidden\] but had only found two short videos.

Thanks so much for the honest review Gary. Your experience is exactly why we've recently put a greater emphasis on bringing video resources to the forefront for our customers. We're glad you've found those helpful and expect many others to as well. And you're absolutely right, our CS team (and leadership) is the best! Thanks again.
