"Prism is easy to use, reliable, and makes tracking and managing tasks much more efficient."

5/5

What do you like best about Building Engines?

I especially appreciate how it helps organize work orders and provides clear visibility across our team. It has definitely improved our workflow and communication. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Building Engines?

Integration gaps – connecting Prism with other systems (like accounting or HR software) isn’t always seamless. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Building Engines solving and how is that benefiting you?

Work order management inefficiencies → Instead of juggling emails, calls, or paper tickets, Prism centralizes everything so requests are tracked and assigned in one place.

Lack of visibility across teams → Prism gives transparency into what’s open, in progress, or completed, so nothing slips through the cracks.

Communication gaps → Tenants, vendors, and staff can all connect within the same platform, reducing miscommunication.

Accountability and follow-up → Since all tasks are timestamped and logged, it’s easier to see who’s responsible and when something was done.

Data-driven decision making → Prism’s reporting provides insights into recurring issues, response times, and resource allocation, helping justify budgets or staff needs.

Compliance tracking → Keeps inspection logs, maintenance records, and safety checks in one system for audit readiness. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Efficient Team Communication and Easy Setup"

5/5

What do you like best about Building Engines?

I find Building Engines to be extremely beneficial for my role in property management. I love how it makes it effortless for the entire team to stay informed about issues within the building. This system eliminates the need for one person to individually inform everyone, as everyone is already in the loop, which significantly reduces the volume of emails I receive regarding maintenance and access cards. This effective communication system streamlines our workflow, saving precious time and effort. I also appreciate being able to view the name, company, and location of someone who submits a work order. This feature is incredibly useful for following up with tenants and promptly addressing the specific locations of issues. Additionally, I found the initial setup process of Building Engines to be exceptionally easy and efficient, which greatly facilitated a smooth transition to using this system. Due to these features, I highly value Building Engines and have rated my likelihood of recommending it to a friend or colleague as a 10 out of 10. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Building Engines?

Allowing tenants to be able to edit their own name/company name would be helpful. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Building Engines solving and how is that benefiting you?

I find Building Engines streamlines team communication, ensuring everyone is informed about building issues, reducing email overload, and facilitating quick follow-ups with detailed submitter information. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The initial setup of Building Engines was not that easy. I had some difficulty because the setting was tailored to an office setting rather than the industrial setting, although this has since been adjusted. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
