- Richardson, Texas. October 25, 1993. Actoris Software Corporation today
- announced that it is shipping it's latest version of Tenant Pro™ (4.1), a
- program designed for property management companies. The new version is
- delivering unprecedented levels of digital imaging, MICR check encoding and
- cross-platform communication between Windows™ and Macintosh® environments.
-
- "These new additions make a genuine difference in the way a real estate
- management firm does business." says Actoris Vice President Jacob G. Garza.
- "All too often, the moment at which the property manager needs to perform one
- of the most demanding tasks (i.e. check writing) he or she is far removed from
- the computer. Our goal in implementing MICR was to directly exploit the
- advantages of MICR technology, incorporate them into Tenant Pro and allow
- property managers to take full advantage of the benefits."
-
- According to Tenant Pro user Roberto Fata, New York City, "The new features
- are terrific. I manage several corporations with about 20 checking accounts.
- Last year without MICR, it took me one hour to write checks with my computer
- and I spent close to $1,000 dollars on pre-printed checks... Now with the MICR
- feature, I spend 10 minutes writing checks and spend only about $150.00 because
- I'm printing on blank check stock and I'm not having to change check stock each
- time I pay from a different account. The savings are just tremendous." Mr.
- Fata also adds. "Digital imaging allows my staff to pull up floor plans on the
- screen. This helps to communicate with tenants if they are calling to report a
- particular problem while referring to a part of the room."
-
- Tenant Pro's 4.1 version comes with many enhancements and new features
- including:
-
- Digital Imaging capability:
- Digital imaging allows a property management firm to take pictures or scan
- documents and attach them to each rental unit file. The pictures can be rooms,
- buildings, units, even pictures of property damage.
-
- MICR Check Encoding:
- MICR check encoding was designed for property managers who write checks out of
- more than one checking account. With this feature you can print the bank name,
- company name, check number, the encoded account information on standard blank
- check stock. Checks from several accounts can be printed in a single run
- without having to switch from one check stock to another.
-
- Cross-Platform capability:
- Tenant Pro is guaranteed to run the same data file on either Macintosh or
- Windows. This feature is unique to the real estate industry. For example, a
- property manager could operate the Windows version at their office. At tax
- time a CPA (who has a Macintosh computer) could take the same data file, bring
- it up into his or her Macintosh and do taxes.
-
- Tenant Pro is available for both Windows and Macintosh platforms from $295 to
- $1995. It combines a complete accounting system with a comprehensive database
- to provide instant information on tenants, owners, units vendors and
- properties. It is sold through Value Added Resellers nationaly. For more
- information please contact Actoris Software at
