Far too many colleagues of mine are still either using overly complicated general accounting software, or worse, tracking everything manually in Excel. Stessa not only allows me to automate the majority of my bookkeeping, but the real time reporting functionality allows me to monitor the performance of my assets and catch anamolys much quicker. While other property management software may offer expense tracking or basic accounting features, Stessa’s exclusive focus on the financial aspect of rental property ownership allows them to offer a far more robust feature set and innovate at a faster clip. > > **Cons**: As a single-entry accounting system, it comes with all the drawbacks associated with that method of accounting (no cross-checking, greater potential for error, no tracking of real accounts, etc.). This was an intentional design decision, however, as this software is geared to be more user friendly for the average rental owner. While it lacks the sophistication of a double-entry system, Stessa has come up with innovative ways to simulate certain aspects of a double-entry system through features like a derived Balance Sheet report using user provided asset values and debt information. ----- ### "Ease of Use" — 5.0/5 > **Tony** | *16 July 2022* | Investment Management | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: The ability to track every important metric used by investors in real estate. > > **Cons**: I wish the system would track owner financing deals > > Able to pull reports quickly and professionally. ----- ### "Horrible Company" — 1.0/5 > **Todd** | *7 March 2025* | Real Estate | Recommendation rating: 0.0/10 > > **Pros**: It was a good price point, but you get what you pay for. > > **Cons**: You pay extra to be able to speak to a human being. What really happens is you type you message to someone online. Then they respond by sending you a calendar to set up an appointment. When you click on the calendar, you find that there are no appointments for the next 30 days. Extraordinarily frustrating. This is after you have spent hours and hours of wasted time entering your data. They are cheap for a reason. They do not care about customer service which means they do not care about their customers. When I complained online to them about this, \[sensitive content hidden\] response was to tell me, “We are only a team of 3 people so we do what we can in terms of phone support.” > > Very Frustrating. This is clearly a company that is looking to make as much as they can while putting as little as they can into support. Pay a little more and get support somewhere else. ----- ### "Stessa Support is non-existent" — 4.0/5 > **Verified Reviewer** | *26 January 2024* | Real Estate | Recommendation rating: 0.0/10 > > **Pros**: ease of use, ease of setup > > **Cons**: support > > terrible.. I want my money back but no one will respond since day 1 ----- ### "Fantastic Software" — 5.0/5 > **Nick** | *22 May 2021* | Real Estate | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: Its easy to use, their is no guess work. I like the banking integration, tenant ledgers, general ledger, balance sheet, income statement, cash flow and every other report you could need. The best part for me is the year end package it generates for my tax guy. > > **Cons**: I'd like to see the ability to update the RE Tax PIN number. Although customer service is excellent and will make any updates you need quickly. > > I think this is the best thing out there. Everything about Stessa is top notch from the product itself to the customer service. ----- Page: 1 / 5\ Next: [Next page](https://www.softwareadvice.com.au/software/75594/stessa?page=2) ## Links - [View on SoftwareAdvice](https://www.softwareadvice.com.au/software/75594/stessa) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | en | | | en-AU | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-NZ | | ----- ## Structured Data
