Making your job as a landlord or property manager easier is our highest priority here at Rentec Direct. Online and via the phone, your support team works hard to provide the highest-rated customer service you’ve come to expect. Behind the scenes, your development team continually tests and implements new improvements to ensure that your software is perpetually adding value and is making your daily task load more efficient.
With those priorities in mind, you should know that your Rentec Direct Development Team not only truly works hard on big feature updates and major enhancements but also on all the small-but-important behind-the-scenes work. These smaller software updates and issue fixes are essential to creating an efficient and pleasant experience with the software. The developers work closely with the Client Success Team and our clients to find out what fixes and enhancements need to be done in order to make the software better for your daily needs.
In-house, the team refers to smaller updates as a bug fix, QuickFix, HotFix, or issue report, and large updates as Features or Enhancements. While we likely won’t report every tiny fix or update to you; you can nonetheless be assured that the development team is always hard at work improving the software for your needs.
Here’s a look at what the Development Team has been working on for the month of July 2020.
