Comparison
Spreadsheets vs. Greenhaus
Manual tools get the job done—until they don't. Here's why independent PM teams switch from spreadsheets to an operating system built for growth.
| Workflow | Spreadsheets & email | Greenhaus |
|---|---|---|
| Maintenance tracking | Shared inboxes, sticky notes, and no SLA tracking | Central inbox with on-call routing, vendor ETAs, and automated updates |
| Rent collection | Manual reminders, paper checks, and delayed reconciliations | Autopay enrollment, promise-to-pay workflows, and instant ledgers |
| Owner reporting | Manual statements assembled the night before calls | Live dashboards, annotated invoices, and approval buttons |
| Team productivity | Every new door requires a new hire | 15+ hours saved per week with automations and templates |
Hidden costs of staying manual
Running operations with spreadsheets costs more than subscription software.
• 10+ hours per week spent on duplicate data entry
• Lost rent from missed follow-ups and slow approvals
• Owner churn when reporting isn't proactive
