## Reviews

### "User-friendly" — 5.0/5

> **Edward** | *1 August 2025* | Accounting | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: The integration of accounting, communication, and community management tools in one system makes it easier to streamline day-to-day operations. I also appreciate the user-friendly interface and how it empowers residents, board members, and managers to stay connected and informed. That kind of focus on transparency and efficiency is something I really value in a software platform. The support team are very supportive.
> 
> **Cons**: None  so far for  I understand that the platform is designed primarily for HOA management, and I’ve seen consistent improvements over time, which shows the company’s commitment to enhancing user experience.
> 
> Very satisfied with the support team especially to \[sensitive content hidden\]. I found the interface generally user-friendly, and features like the accounting processing.

### "Less than positive experience" — 4.0/5

> **Tonya** | *27 August 2024* | Nonprofit Organisation Management | Recommendation rating: 1.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: The integrated software which allows Compliance data and Architectural data to integrate with accounting.
> 
> **Cons**: The issues that I have found that can never be addressed properly from an accounting standpoint.  There is no one there knowledgeable in accounting who can understand the issues
> 
> My overall experience with FrontSteps/Caliber has been less that positive.

### "Incapable of execution - run, don't walk away" — 1.0/5

> **Adam** | *11 June 2026* | Commercial Real Estate | Recommendation rating: 0.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Their website looks great - but it's mostly smoke and mirrors. The capabilities they market sound great and would fill a real market need - if they were real. Spoiler alert - they aren't\!
> 
> **Cons**: Their services appear to great - AI enabled workflows, resident support line, electronic payments, etc. but we've seen absolutely none of it in practice. Customer support for HOAs is non-existent. Basically have to contact their executives from the website to get any useful response. Average response time for anything - including a password reset is 3 weeks. Yes, 3 weeks. There is no customer support phone number for an HOA to call and get technical support.
> 
> Horrible. Utterly useless software. Not seen a single capability listed on their website work in practice. Seems like it's all smoke and mirrors.

### "Great All-in-One Solution for HOA Management" — 5.0/5

> **Colby** | *16 May 2024* | Management Consulting | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: The tightly integrated back-end software to the front-end owner platform is second to none. The ease of use of both Caliber and Frontsteps is critical to our managers being efficient in their daily tasks. It enables collaborative management between our managers and volunteer board members. They are always innovating and improving the software based on feedback we can provide to them.
> 
> **Cons**: Personally, having lead our migration to Frontsteps from a prior platform and being a power user, sometimes I feel like I am solving my own problems rather than getting adequate support from their dedicated support teams. Things don't always get resolved right, and sometimes it seems our critical issues are not viewed with the same importance.
> 
> Despite the con I have shared, it truly is a great platform and has been a great solution for us. We are a small team and this was a big step for us that has enabled more efficiencies, increased revenue capture, and different revenue opportunities. These would not have been possible without their products.

### "Frontsteps Suite of Products" — 5.0/5

> **Stephanie** | *27 June 2024* | Nonprofit Organisation Management | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Frontsteps is very user friendly and easy to roll out to a wide range of individuals.
> 
> **Cons**: We really don’t have complaints as Frontsteps works to quickly find a fix or upgrade when issues arrive.
