What it is

What is strata management software?

Strata management software is a platform that helps strata managers, building managers, and owners corporation committees run the day-to-day operations of strata-titled buildings. It replaces the spreadsheets, email chains, and paper folders that strata buildings have traditionally relied on with a single system that tracks every maintenance request, work order, inspection, contractor, key, document, and resident communication.

Australian strata buildings have requirements that generic property management tools don't address — committee oversight, owners corporation transparency, levy-funded expenditure tracking, by-law enforcement, and compliance with state-specific strata legislation. Purpose-built strata management software is designed around these realities.

Who uses strata management software?

  • Strata managers managing portfolios of 5-50+ buildings, who need a single dashboard to track work across their entire book.
  • Building managers on-site at a single complex, who handle day-to-day maintenance, contractor coordination, and resident communications.
  • Strata committees and owners corporations, who need transparency into how their levies are being spent and how the building is being maintained.
  • Contractors, who need a way to receive and update work orders without sitting in someone else's email inbox.

What does strata management software do?

A complete strata management platform handles:

  • Maintenance request intake (resident-facing portal, QR codes, mobile app)
  • Work order assignment and contractor coordination
  • Building inspections with photo documentation and reportable templates
  • Asset and key management (including NFC and QR tracking)
  • Compliance documentation — insurance certificates, contractor inductions, audit trails
  • Resident communications — notice boards, targeted notifications, document libraries
  • Amenity and facility booking
  • Multi-building reporting for strata managers managing portfolios

FAQ

Frequently asked questions about strata management software

What is strata management software?
Strata management software is a digital platform that helps strata managers, building managers, and owners corporation committees manage the operations of strata-titled properties. It typically handles maintenance requests, work orders, contractor management, building inspections, resident communications, amenity bookings, and compliance documentation — all in one system.
How much does strata management software cost in Australia?
Pricing varies widely. Some platforms charge per user per month, others per building, and some per unit. ComtyLink charges $2 per unit per quarter — all features included, no tiers, no hidden fees. For a 50-unit building, that's $400 per year. Most competitors charge $2–$5 per unit per month, making ComtyLink around 67% cheaper on average.
What features should strata management software have?
Essential features include: maintenance request tracking with full audit trails, work order management with contractor assignment, building inspection tools with photo documentation, a resident self-service portal, contractor management with compliance tracking, amenity and facility booking, notice board for resident communications, and a mobile app that works offline. Reporting and committee-level visibility are also important for strata buildings.
Is there strata management software for small buildings?
Yes. ComtyLink works for buildings of any size — from a 10-unit block to a 500-unit complex. Because pricing is per unit ($2/unit/quarter), small buildings pay less. There are no minimum user fees or per-building charges, so a small strata scheme can access the same features as a large one.
How is strata management software different from property management software?
Property management software focuses on rental portfolios — lease management, rent collection, and tenant screening. Strata management software focuses on the operations of shared buildings — common property maintenance, committee governance, owner/resident communication, and levy-funded expenditure tracking. Strata buildings have unique requirements around committee oversight and transparency that generic property management tools don't address.
Can strata managers use ComtyLink across multiple buildings?
Yes. ComtyLink supports multi-building management from a single login. Strata managers can switch between properties instantly, view maintenance across their entire portfolio, and manage contractors and residents for each building independently.
What's the best strata management software for Australian buildings?
There's no single 'best' for every building — the right choice depends on portfolio size, budget, and which features matter most. For most Australian strata buildings, the criteria are: built for Australian compliance, full feature set without per-feature upcharges, transparent per-unit pricing, an offline mobile app for on-site managers, and a contractor portal. ComtyLink is built specifically for these requirements at $2 per unit per quarter — typically 67% cheaper than MYBOS or BuildingLink with a more complete out-of-the-box feature set.
How does strata committee management software help committees stay informed?
Strata committees historically rely on the strata or building manager for monthly reports — which means waiting weeks to see what's happening in the building. ComtyLink gives committee members their own login with real-time visibility into every maintenance request, work order, contractor assignment, inspection, and document. AGM preparation becomes minutes instead of weeks, and committee meetings focus on decisions instead of catch-up.
Does strata management software replace the strata manager?
No. Strata management software replaces manual processes — paper records, scattered emails, and spreadsheets — not the strata manager themselves. A good strata manager remains essential for governance, financial management, dispute resolution, and stakeholder communication. ComtyLink amplifies what a strata manager can do, letting one manager handle a larger portfolio without dropping balls or losing visibility.
