The difference

Where the products diverge

These are category differences — who the software is built for, what leaseholders can see, and whether a managed service exists. They are not a quality score of Resident Property Software Limited.

Directors and agents, not only the back office

The category

Resident is described as block-management software for managing-agent back offices.

What Residentive offers

Residentive serves RMC directors, RTM companies, and managing agents — with a leaseholder-facing portal, not only an operator console.

A live ledger leaseholders can open

The category

Resident is described here as agent back-office access.

What Residentive offers

ProperPortal™ shows allocations, supplier payments and reserve movements as they happen — the same numbers for residents and directors.

A published 24/7 number

The category

Call handling is not part of the Resident software product as described on this page.

What Residentive offers

ProperResponse™ answers around the clock. If confidence drops below 90%, a human joins the call.

Software, or a managed appointment

The category

Resident is software only.

What Residentive offers

ProperSuite is the agent-run track. Boards that do not want to run the software alone can appoint Residentive as the manager.
