I’m wondering how other properties handle user property security requests? We frequently have staff that go to other properties to cover when someone is out, and it’s kind of a wonky process at the moment. I’ve generally been creating a property list for each user and then a coverage request means just updating that list, but it’s not a function that we want a ton of people to have access to, and the process seems archaic at best. This isn’t even factoring in that I usually get the requests to provide access at 9:30am when they realize they can’t do anything at the property, despite well documented SOPs on request lead times.

We are a giant Yardi practice client. One of the largest in our sector. Private cloud etc.

I’ve found in the past 2 years, Yardi support has got particularly bad. I have worked with Yardi for over 10 years and i am noticing a significant difference.

Has anyone else encountered this?

some examples: managers and even directors ignoring emails or dragging issues on for months.

being told flat out no for things even if there’s significant bugs causing financial risk. the shift to voyager 8 and ignore everything 7s is real and they are no longer doing any TRs for 7s. as one of the largest clients we have never been told no before for true bugs that are reasonable and typically work with yardi on hot fixes but it seems there’s a no exception rule now even if a bug introduces significant financial risk.

there is an extreme push for voyager 8 and ignoring bugs in 7s to force clients to switch. it is not possible to migrate one of the largest housing providers overnight to voyager 8.

i found this with multiple teams so far.

For those that couldn't attend, or had to leave early. Here is the setlist that the Killers played tonight at the Rady Bowl for the Yardi Party

It was a great show, and as a long time fan who has never had a chance to see them this was such a fun surprise. Thanks, Yardi!

The maintenance app has been unusable on the most recent version of android for a while now. Our rep told us the solution is to just switch to apple which is laughable. Besides downgrading, are there any other options we could explore to bridge the gap until their developers catch up?

I work at a CRE company. I want to learn more about Yardi. My access is limited to certain functions, so I cannot peek behind the scenes to see how things are set up. I want to play around with outgoing recovery pools, some GL allocation rules, and try the Forecast manager. I also want to see what a typical PO cycle looks like. I often have to hold meetings with the people on site, but I do not know how they work.

I can't find anything on the Yardi website, not the manual or docs. There is Aspire, but I do not have access to.

Is there training materials or all paid through third party?

Hi Guys,
Does anyone know if Yardi scheduler can send CSV file?

Hello! I am currently interviewing for a position at a different affordable housing company. They use Yardi software. I have 8 years of experience with OneSite affordable. We recently converted to the New Experience and I learned it quickly. I currently use Yardi Voyager 7 for financial/accounting research. I’m incredibly quick with learning new softwares, but Yardi frightens me. lol.

Any tips on switching? What are the biggest differences and how difficult is it to switch?

I REALLY want this job and want to be sure that I won’t fizzle out immediately with a software that is too difficult to navigate. It’s seriously my dream job and a huge step in my career.
