Best block management software for UK managing agents in 2026

Resident's price page gives a 1,200-unit firm one yearly figure with the leaseholder portal already in it: £5,995 for the 2,000-unit band, plus £500 to set up. Its pages state budgets, service charge demands across unlimited schedules, bank feeds for client accounts with online reconciliation, works orders emailed to contractors, an alert when proposed spending reaches the Section 20 threshold and email reminders for insurance renewals and health and safety assessments. The ticketing module is extra at £86.95 a month, which is £1,043.40 a year. The page does not say whether a band is the most units it covers; we have read it that way. Independent evidence is thin: 4.9 from 7 reviews on Capterra UK and none on Trustpilot.

Blocks Online sells four modules, each a monthly base fee plus pence per unit, with unlimited users, no set-up fee and no minimum contract. For 1,200 units the Block Management module is £3,360 a year, the Property Portal adds £2,760, and all four modules come to £16,440. The core module states demands, yearly budgets, supplier invoices, separate bank accounts for service charge, ground rent and reserve money with reconciliation, and a diary for insurance renewals and health and safety assessments. Repairs sit in the Ticketing module at £100 plus 30p a unit a month. We read no independent reviews: its Trustpilot profile had none and we found no Capterra UK listing.

Blockman charges one monthly fee set by a unit band, with every accounting feature in every band and unlimited staff accounts. A 1,200-unit firm is in Package 3 at £450 a month, and the contract can be cancelled on 30 days' notice. Its pages state service charge demands across lease schedules, budgets, BACS supplier payments, a balance sheet for each block and works orders emailed to contractors. A compliance diary and client bank accounts are not stated. A second price table in the same page, built for smaller screens, shows the portal at 20p a unit for this band, not 15p, and a £195 starting price where the main table says £250. Confirm both. Trustpilot shows 3.8 from 2 reviews.

Qube PM is the system a buyer will hear named first. MRI's page counts more than 230 block management clients in the UK and says their portfolios hold over 60% of the units managed by members of The Property Institute. The pages state service charge accounting with budgeting and reconciliation, a resident portal, planned and reactive maintenance with contractor portals, and asset compliance and inspections. Demands and client bank accounts are not named on the pages we read, which is a gap in the page and not proof of a gap in the product. No price is published, so a 1,200-unit firm cannot budget without a sales call. The Trustpilot profile, 4.7 from 3,551 reviews, covers every MRI product worldwide.

Propman, from Grosvenor Systems, is accounting-led software for block, residential and commercial portfolios, and its site says over 100 UK companies use it. The pages state client and service charge accounts, budgets for each property, demand production, balancing charges worked out automatically, arrears chasing, maintenance jobs with contractor workflows and key-date tracking. Portals for tenants, clients and suppliers are sold as additions. No price appears anywhere on the site; every route ends at a demonstration request. Independent evidence is close to nil: the supplier's Trustpilot profile holds one review, at 3.2. All five jobs are stated, which is why it sits level with Fixflo despite scoring nothing for price or evidence.

Fixflo is not an accounts system. It is repairs, planned maintenance and compliance software that sits beside one. Leaseholders report communal faults through a branded portal with pictures, the firm instructs contractors and tracks their compliance documents, and statutory and planned maintenance events are scheduled with reminders. The block pricing page shows four tiers, all on request, plus the £75 monthly software fee and unlimited users; the contractor marketplace is from 30p a unit a month. Trustpilot shows 4.0 from 238 reviews across all Fixflo products, not the block edition alone. It scores on evidence and on the two jobs it does, and nothing on accounting.

Dwellant describes itself as the operational layer that connects to your accounting software, not a replacement for it. Its pages state resident and director portals, contractor management, purchase orders and invoice approval, inspections, and a compliance hub for assets and building safety records. The packages page shows from £2.99 a unit on Lite, £3.99 on Standard and £4.99 on Premium, but not the period, and sends you to a quote. Compliance is listed under Premium only. Trustpilot shows 2.9 from 33 reviews, the lowest average of the seven; the reviewers include contractors paid through it as well as property managers.
