What do some of you use as a building community website? We had bee using a Yahoo group + a gmail account for email and documents. We have moved to athome.net as a secure site with calendar, documents, emal, etc. It has all of the functionality but it has been difficult to use. I'm curious what other buildings are using to provide information and resources to owners and other residents.
Join the Conversation Comments (3)Thanks for the recommendations. These look nice. Neither seems to have a built in board email mailbox or calendar with the ability to invite people to attend. How are HOAs and Boards managing appointments, email, and task management?
we will be using verizon concierge it is free and offers support for management
Free sounds good we pay $100.00 per month by our managing agent. Thanks I'll check this out and bring this up as a cost effective way to cut our managing cost.
We've adopted Associationvoice.com for about $50/month. Nice simple design templates and easy to use setup and functionality. We tried athome.net which was kludgey and difficult to navigate for users. I saw something called Virtual Doorman at the NYC Coop & Condo Expo that sounded interesting. Not a website per se but a remote doorman like service.

You may want to check out "HOASPACE.COM" to house your information.
I set a yahoo group for our building of 200 units. It works nicely. Unfortuantely, you will find a couple of people who use it to kvetch their issues and just are always negative. Same folks who don't go to the annual mtgs and hide behind their computers to complain. That is the only downside. On a more positive note, people have used it for play dates, train delays and to relay other good info.
