How do you know it is time to switch?
When the system you have is creating work instead of saving it.
- Workarounds where the team keeps spreadsheets on the side because the system cannot do something
- Gaps where maintenance, residents and contractors sit in different tools
- Reporting pain where every committee report is assembled by hand
- Mobile limits where on-site staff cannot do their work from a phone
- Support where questions take days to answer
What should you check before switching?
Whether the new system fits how your buildings actually run, and how the move itself will be handled.
| Question | Why it matters |
|---|---|
| Will our records come across? | Losing asset history or contractor details is the biggest cost of a move |
| Who does the set-up? | A provider that sets up your buildings with you saves weeks of internal effort |
| How will staff be trained? | Adoption depends on the team being comfortable from the first week |
| Is support local? | Questions come up in your business hours, not someone else's |
| Does it cover everything we need? | Maintenance, residents, contractors, parcels, keys and reporting in one place means fewer tools to juggle |

Where are most teams switching from?
Usually from spreadsheets and email, or from another building management platform.
From spreadsheets and email
The biggest change is having one record of the building. Read running a building on spreadsheets for where the hidden costs sit.
From another platform
The priority is keeping your history. If you are on BuildingLink, see BuildingLink alternatives in Australia.
