My overall experience has been Amazing. PAYHOA offers great value, wonderful customer service, and support, and the overall ease of use makes this a no-brainer. I did vast amounts of research for Community Management software and we are very pleased we selected PAYHOA. We plan to use them for a long time to come. Thanks again to [SENSITIVE CONTENT HIDDEN] for always being available to help when we have a question!
Pros
The ease of use and the ability to efficiently communicate to residents of an HOA. This software has made managing an HOA so much easier for us. You get great, personalized service and speedy responses to all of your questions. You never feel like you are left alone to figure it out by yourself.[SENSITIVE CONTENT HIDDEN] has made this system much less intimidating by being there every step of the way to help if we have questions. People like her make this software worth it!
Cons
This is seldom a problem, but I have noticed that the system can run slow on certain days. I feel like the violation process could be streamlined as well if there was a mobile version so you could record violations in real-time while out on inspections. It would be great to be able to upload photos instantly.

We have realized a large monthly savings by switching to PayHOA. Besides the monetary savings, it has saved us from so many headaches! It seems to work all on its' own once you set up parameters.
Pros
There are two things that come to mind first and foremost about this application. First, it has an long list of capabilities (probably most of which we are not using YET) which will make our Accounting and Neighborhood Management system a quick & easy process saving time, money & effort. Secondly, as we worked to set up this program, it was very user-friendly and when we had questions and needed human help, it was super easy to get someone on the line and your CS team members are smart, know the program well and seemed eager to help!
Cons
Well, so far there is nothing to like least about PayHOA!! We are still learning the vast capabilities of this app so don't use all that's available to us but so far, this is wonderful!

We have a small HOA that is self-managed, needed a platform to manage online payments, online communications, and other tasks. PayHOA fulfills basic functions like online payments, online communications, and online notifications. But the accountings features are not very good, I had to build my own xcel tracking to verify our income vs. expenses for taxes and audits--couldn't rely on the platform to give us accurate reports.
Pros
The online payment feature is great. Online communications features are also great.
Cons
The accounting software built into the platform is horrible. We have to do yearly taxes and audits for our HOA. When I tried to pull the yearly financial reports from PayHOA, I often found multiple errors in the transactions. Experimented with multiple ways to pull the financial info from the system, but none of it was very accurate. Had to build my own xcel tracking to confirm our income vs. expenses.
Response from Pay HOA
Hi Khue,
Thanks for taking the time to write a review. I appreciate the kind words about our payment and communication tools.
I had one of our accounting experts review your transaction ledger and G/L. All of the numbers are correct, but they noticed an issue with the way transfers were being coded by your bookkeeper in the system. I'm sending you a private message now.
Best,
Mike

PayHOA solved our work order issue with a system that allows owners to submit a work order and allows the users to track them.
Pros
I was looking for a software that incorporated work orders, accounting, communication and maintenance tracking. PayHOA offered all of these features. The software is easy to set up, although it could use more customization options. It is more than sufficient for what we need. Homeowners can pay their fees online and it is deposited directly to the bank.
Cons
It could use more customization as well as an area where admin could store owner documents and information internally.

We moved all of our accounting from another software product and all of our members' records from Access to PayHOA. The support I have gotten from the folks at PayHOA is hands down the best product support I have ever had with any other company, and I am an IT person. They answer questions promptly, help with any issues, and we have had very few issues. I couldn't be happier!
Pros
I really like having the accounting and records management all in one place. I really like that I can use PayHOA services to mail the annual invoices. It saves me hours and hours of time.
Cons
One thing I would like added is the ability to query the data, like you would an SQL database.

Overall the payHOA system works very well and is easy to navigate. I have made use of it for over two years now and homeowners seem to like it as well. My community is small and we have not made full use of some of the features, but I am glad they are there to use when the time comes that we do use the features
Pros
It is easy to navigate around the website, and its intuitive so I can give someone admin access to the site and within a few hours they have a pretty good feel for the site. This makes any training needed for more specific things easier to do and get through.
Cons
The Invoice system still needs some work. Would like a way to filter out late fee separately from normal Invoices. It would help to also have a quick way to see the houses that are late on paying dues on the main dashboard. I also feel the site permissions need to be flushed out a bit more. I would like to assign mass permissions to most but would prefer to filter out specific people. It would be nice to see a way to drop specific home owners into groups and then be able to assign or remove permissions on those groups

We have to develop and present a yearly budget for legal requirements. PayHOa does this very well. Ability to track individual payments and provide statements to individual members is easy and vital to our HOA.
Pros

Cons
Keeping alignment with our bank has sometimes been a problem. Wish we could track savings accounts.

It's been a great experience, reducing labor time and making communication with residents more efficient.
Pros
Account tracking for each resident, overall transactions and budget reports have been most helpful for me as the treasurer. I used to spend hours to days trying to maintain this type of info. Now it is so much easier to maintain in minutes on a regular basis!
Cons
If some of the budget reports had the option to make more concise it would be helpful.

After “interviewing” a few companies, PayHOA was by far the most friendly, informative, cost effective and user friendly program. I have a few communities that range from 50 doors up to 250+ doors and PayHOA has been able to fit our needs for all of them. The fees seemed to be very comparable to the other programs, so it all came down to how easy is this going to be to use? I didn’t want to ADD any more time than I was already spending on excel spreadsheet work. PayHOA has delivered on all that I was looking for. Customer Support is always quick and responsive, and if they can't help at that moment, the programming support turnaround hasn't been more than a business day. Very satisfied with this program!
Pros
The software is very user friendly and has all of the features that I was looking for.
Cons
I wish that the Financial reporting feature was a bit more form driven. Using the simplistic P&L that PayHOA contains, I have an easy work-around for the various needs of my HOA Board Reporting. This is a wish-list item for me - I'd love to be able to print out a GAAP acceptable Income Statement and Balance Sheet.

PayHOA has transformed the way our homeowners association operates. Its user-friendly interface, efficient communication tools, robust financial management capabilities, and excellent customer support make it an indispensable asset for any HOA. I wholeheartedly recommend PayHOA to any community seeking a streamlined and effective solution for their management needs.
Pros
I have been using PayHOA for the past year, and I am genuinely impressed with the seamless experience it offers for managing our homeowners association (HOA). This web-based portal has revolutionized the way we handle our community affairs, making communication, financial tracking, and administrative tasks a breeze.
Cons
Time taken for processing the checks can be improved. I understand PayHOA uses a third party vendor for check processing, but having a tighter SLA with them would be great.

Very pleased. I began using it as my professional relationship with our paid management company deteriorated. They thought we would fold without their help. Thanks to this software, we got better at everything and saved a lot of money. It actually takes me less time to manage our HOA independently than it did using the management company.
Pros
Ease of use and customer service. The software is pretty intuitive to learn, even for a novice in HOA management. The invoicing, payment, budgeting and reporting tools are powerful and simple to use and customer service is great.
Cons
There are minor frustrations here and there. Homeowners enrolling will sometimes create a new HOA with a similar name to ours instead of searching for and enrolling in our organization, which took me a while to figure out, but the more time I spend with the software, the more I like it.

Honestly legfi kinda sucked. The only thing it was good for was ease of tax reporting. Otherwise it was a pain to keep balances up to date and often they would go negative for no apparent reason and overall was just a hassle. I would keep track of due payments on my own and moved people away from paying on the website due to high credit card fees while other vendors have lower fees. Even venmo is free for P2P transfers, not sure why this was not an option with legfi.
Pros
The ease of tax reporting
Cons
The difficulties in keeping balances up to date along with system glitches and high credit fees.
Response from Pay HOA
Hi Alex,
I'm very sorry to hear that you had a bad experience on LegFi. I would love to hop on a quick call to understand a little more about what was happening with your balances going negative.
Unfortunately, we can't offer person to person transfers because your chapter is a nonprofit corporation with an EIN. I would be very careful running the chapter's revenue through a personal account, as it opens you up to tremendous tax and personal liability. If you'd like to discuss further, I would love to continue the conversation via email or phone.
Best,

I really enjoy the system. It is in the mid-range of pricing and comes with all the bells and whistles you need to manage a small, or even a large, HOA. I went from having to "work" on the HOA weekly to only working on it quarterly.
Pros
I really loved that PayHOA was so easy to use. I was able to adopt the product in minutes by taking the excel spreadsheet I was using to manage my HOA and importing it directly into PayHOA.
Cons
When I was importing my "units", it wasn't super easy to import payment history. That was a little annoying. I did find it very easy to put in an enhancement request, but honestly, I didn't lose much value long term by not having that feature.
