Is your legacy Housing Management System holding you back? We’ve helped housing associations like Wandle, North Star Housing Group and  Wales & West who previously struggled with systems that created an over reliance on spreadsheets which inevitably lead to inefficiencies.  Many organisations are still facing challenges in remaining compliant and providing customer service excellence to residents and stakeholders.

It’s likely you’ve come across some horror stories about system migrations that led to complicated, overly complex solutions that added layers of difficulty to an already challenging role. The truth is, moving to a modern solution isn’t as simple as flipping a switch—and without the right approach, it can feel overwhelming. But here’s the good news: it doesn’t have to be that way. 

Join our in-person workshop, "How to Replace Your Legacy Housing Management System in a Day". Through hands-on sessions, real-world success stories from Housing Associations who have been in your shoes, as well as insights from Microsoft and BRIKHousing experts, you’ll learn everything you need to ensure a smooth, successful transition—minus the headaches.
