An honest comparison
OurHOA vs Spreadsheets
A spreadsheet, a shared inbox, and a lot of evenings. It works - until the treasurer moves away and takes the only copy with them.
| Spreadsheets | OurHOA | |
|---|---|---|
| Cost | Free... in money | Free up to 50 homes |
| Continuity when the board changes | Fragile | Everything persists in one place |
| Collecting dues | Manual, by check | Online + automatic |
| Resident self-service | None | Full portal + website |
| Records & compliance | Scattered | Organized and searchable |
You've proven the community can run on goodwill. OurHOA makes that goodwill go further - and survive the next election.
Being straight with you
When Spreadsheets might be the better pick
If your community is professionally managed at scale, or you need deep property-management tooling like tenant screening and listings, a platform like Spreadsheets may fit you better. OurHOA is built for self-managed communities that want the essentials done beautifully - not a full property-management suite. We'd rather you find the right tool than the wrong one.
