What Sets Rent Manager’s Customer Support Department Apart?
2022 was a year of innovation and growth for our Customer Support department. With an increased focus on efficiency, accuracy, and internal training, our hold times are the lowest they’ve ever been. This decrease comes despite our customer base growing 18% year over year. Further, we reduced the volume of calls to our Support department by providing our repeat callers with a trial of Premium Support. Premium Support gives customers the ability to call their team of dedicated Customer Support Specialists directly.
Delivering excellent service has become challenging worldwide in recent years due to a variety of factors. These include increased cost of labor, flexible work demands, labor shortages, etc. However, because customer service is a focus and competitive advantage for Rent Manager, our recent proactive efforts have allowed us to significantly improve key service metrics at a time when other companies have struggled to adapt.
What Makes the Rent Manager User Conference So Special?
The annual Rent Manager User Conference (RMUC) is our largest customer-facing event. There, our customers, integrated technology providers, and employees can network, learn more about Rent Manager, and get hands-on experience with the platform through demonstrations and classes.
In preparation for each conference, the RMUC planning committee examines previous-attendee feedback, researches current industry trends, and reviews Rent Manager features and capabilities to create a lineup of can’t-miss instructional sessions for future conference attendees to participate in. In 2022, 72 carefully crafted classes were offered on topics ranging from Giving Your Website Superpowers to Improving Your Bookkeeping Skills, and everything in between. Customers also had the opportunity to earn National Association of Residential Property Managers (NARPM) and National Association of State Boards of Accountancy Continuing Professional Education (NASBA CPE) credits by attending RMUC sessions. In addition, conferencegoers could take an exam to become Rent Manager Certified in either the core aspects of the program or fee-based property management and accounting.
