Top 10 Reasons to Use TenantWIZ Property Management Software

In the last few months we've seen an explosive growth of sign-ups and I wanted to start out by thanking all of you who've recently joined our community of online property management software subscribers. There have been so many tremendous upgrades recently that it's been hard to really update you guys all about it, however, if you aren't following our twitter feed then be sure to follow us on twitter at http://www.twitter.com/tenantwiz.

There are so many great reasons why TenantWIZ has become one of the leading online property management solutions, however, there are 5 that really stand out as to why people are flocking to TenantWIZ.



#1 Use TenantWIZ to manage Short-Term or Long-Term Rentals


One of the most important features of TenantWIZ is that it gives you the ability to manage short or long term rentals through the same software interface. Simply set the property rates by defining weekday, weekend, weekly or monthly rates for each season or set of date ranges you choose. Once you've setup your rates, you can define the minimum rental period for each property. For example, if you're doing short term vacation rentals your minimum rental period may be one day, three days, one week, or so on. You can also define the day of the week you want your rental to start (if any) such as Saturday, Sunday, or choose any. For your long term rentals you can specify a minimum of 30 days for the rental and set your monthly rates. Renters can even login to their renter accounts, sign digital contracts/leases, make payments from their account, and so much more.

#2 Get a Built-In Website, Software Upgrades, Support and Web-Based Admin!

TenantWIZ provides our customers with their own Website (domain must be provided), along with the popular built-in TenantWIZ administration software which is upgraded automatically on a period basis, as well as free hosting & support services. Our software is used around the world by and hailed as one of the most powerful & robust reservation management & property management software solutions on the market today! In the recent months we've seen loads of new features come online that provide more power to our customers in the day-to-day management of properties through the TenantWIZ system.

#3 Use as a Rental Management system or Rental Listing Service!

Some of our most recent upgrades now allow our customers to use TenantWIZ to not only manage properties, but also allow owners to post properties through the owner login section. This allows you to instantly create a listing service Website similar to that of VRBO.com or Homeaway.com! You get to define the rules of the listings for the owners and also charge owners a listing fee (or allow them to list for free). You also get to set additional rules & options such as whether or not owners can post their own rates, create special offers, confirm their own reservations and so on.

#4 Low Monthly Fee that doesn't tie you into a Single Merchant Account!

Some of our competitors boast a low monthly fee, but then tie you into processing credit cards through their dedicated merchant account sometimes costing you upwards of 10% to 20% of any gross rental transaction!

With TenantWIZ, you can process payments the way you want! We provide integrated payment services through popular payment systems such as PayPal, 2Checkout, Authorize.net and more! You can use TenantWIZ for as low as $29 per month with a one-time setup fee of $69. To learn more about our pricing options click here.

#5 Built-In Enterprise Level Features not Found with other Service Providers

With TenantWIZ, upgrades are always free and on-going. We work closely with our customers to continually improve our software everyday! We listen and learn from you. Some of the terrific built-in features of our software are:

  • Built-In Electronic Contracts / Leases
  • Dedicated Renter Accounts for your Renters

Google Maps added to Search Results


We're excited to announce the new addition of Google Maps to the search results page of our popular vacation rental software system.
As many of you are already aware, we added the Google Maps feature last year to the property details page on TenantWIZ (which we're hard at work upgrading by the way), and we've now added the map to the search results page as well.
We've also added a nifty AJAX driven feature to the search page as well. Now you can select an area, and the sub-areas will auto-populate into the drop-down box just below it.
If you want to check out any of the new features, just fill out the form located at http://www.tenantwizdemo.com/tenantwiz/store/searchResults.asp and you'll get instant access to the online demo system!
We've got several other upgrades in the work as well, and of course, all customers get instant automated upgrades on a period basis as they become available.

New BETA Calendar System for TenantWIZ Vacation Rental Software



After much anticipation our new calendar system for the TenantWIZ Vacation Rental Software has now moved into BETA. The new calendar offers several improvements on the old system as well as a sleeker look and feel. We also have some other upgrades in the works for our calendar such as AJAX driven calendars that break-out, weekly/monthly/yearly rate quoting, and others.
We want to keep some of the new features that are coming out on the wraps, however, this new calendar feature offers a few upgrades and elimination of some old bugs in the past calendar system. For example, the old calendar system did not allow you to showcase check-in and check-out dates, which have now been corrected with the BETA release of this calendar. Additionally, the old calendar had a few minor bugs such as showing the last known daily price on the calendar throughout the remainder of the calendar if no other prices had been entered.
The new calendar system is currently in BETA on a few select TenantWIZ Vacation Rental Software driven Websites and will be released shortly. Should you have any questions regarding the new calendar system, please email us at support@tenantwiz.com
