Look before you leap
Article Abstract:
Property companies considering purchasing a property management system have a wide range of systems to choose from. It is important to be aware that all property management systems offer broadly similar functions, but that they differ in their detail. Each user's requirements are different, so care must be taken to assess each system's facilities in detail. Particular attention must be given to the system's accounting functions. The latest version of Estate Computer Systems' Property Portfolio Management System is reviewed in detail.

Article Abstract:
There are some advantages associated with designing your own spreadsheet for specific applications. However, it is also important to be aware that mistakes can remain undetected within a spreadsheet model and that there is a danger of insufficient data validation. It may be advisable to choose a proprietary spreadsheet package. These have powerful chart functions that can be used with the user's own model or with data downloaded from a proprietary system.
