What you’ll see in a property management software demo

Choosing a property software solution can be a stressful process. Whatever your level of understanding – whether you’re a new agency, tired of working with manual processes or simply switching from another platform – it can feel daunting. 

At Alto, we understand the challenges you face. We’ve developed a seamless process to help you along the way. It all starts with a property software demo from our sales team – your first real chance to see the software for yourself. 

Alto’s property software demo: step-by-step

Anybody who requests a demo online can expect a call within 24 hours to arrange a remote online demo with one of our regional sales representatives. Face-to-face demos were also available until the outbreak of COVID-19. 

The fully interactive property software demo includes a run through of the software at a pace to suit you, showcasing the capabilities and benefits in line with your own individual requirements.

How to tailor an Alto demo to your agency’s needs

Any number of staff are free to join the screenshare. It offers the chance to see the dashboard, how to insert properties and link to portals, as well as additional features such as pre-populated documents including tenancy agreements. 

Our representative will ask about your business to ensure that the demo is tailored to you. They’ll then highlight the most useful features depending on your clients, business structure and even your own day-to-day responsibilities. 

Key questions to ask during your demo

Whichever software provider you choose, this demo is likely to be your first opportunity to see the user interface and discover how the platform can benefit your organisation. It is also the perfect opportunity to ask the questions you need to make a more informed decision. 

We’ve listed some of the key questions you should be asking any property software provider if they haven’t already answered them during the demo: 

• Make sure that you have the opportunity to see how the user interface works and how to perform everyday tasks
• Ask how to insert property details and see how it feeds through to portals/your own website
• Establish how long will it take to set up the software and to complete data migration from your existing platform
• What is the cost? Alto provides transparent, up-front pricing for easier decision-making 
• How secure is the platform and what technical support is available once you are up and running?
• Ask about the process for new sign-ups if you take on new staff

After the initial demo, our regional sales representative will email you to confirm pricing and the process for installation and data migration. We’ll cover that process in our next blog.
