what our clients say
“we have decided to upgrade to pimss4communities because we are committed to working with PIMSS. The people are good and responsive to work with. This is not just about the right product or supplier but also about having a good working relationship. PIMSS has been successful for us and we are pleased to be installing the new product.”
David Block, Head of IT, Magna Housing Group
“pimss4communities has come along at just the right time for us. We really liked what we saw. It is logical, simple to use, it does everything we need it to and included EPCs. We were keen to get in at the start with pimss4communities. We wanted to work with Martin and his team and we know that our ideas will always be welcome.”
Adrian Pragnell, Medina Housing Association Ltd
“pimss4communities was launched at an opportune time for us. We were looking to see what we should do for the future. We didn't want to move away from PIMSS as we like working with the people there. They are a relatively small company and we always get good response times. PIMSS was very user friendly and when we saw pimss4communities we could see that it would also be easy to use.”
Jacky Eimermann, Head of Strategic Asset Management, Watford Community Housing Trust
“pimss has many useful features. We find grouping into estates and property summaries particularly helpful. The layout is very clear and doesn’t use jargon, which makes it easy to use. The support team is very helpful, they always respond quickly, we never have to chase them. The User Groups and continuing enhancements are a great move for a system we value.”
Trevor Woodward, South Lakes Housing
