Whether you're an industry professional or a tech enthusiast, this podcast series offers a rare glimpse into the minds of two thought leaders shaping the future of multifamily housing.
Join Kerry W. Kirby and Jimmy Lancaster, the masterminds behind the Multifamily Tech Gurus Podcast Series, as they explore the critical distinctions between Enterprise-Level Software and Software as a Service (SaaS) and what these differences mean for businesses in today’s tech-driven landscape. The podcast breaks down the core functionalities, deployment models, scalability, and cost structures of each, highlighting how they cater to varying organizational needs.
In this insightful episode, Kerry and Jimmy unpack the advantages and challenges of each approach, discussing factors like customization, maintenance responsibilities, and adaptability to industry-specific demands. With insights from real-world applications in multifamily housing and beyond, they deliver insights that help listeners navigate the complexities of choosing the right software solution for their operations.
Kerry and Jimmy’s Words of Wisdom: "Choosing between enterprise-level software and SaaS isn’t just a tech decision, it’s a strategic move that can define your business’s future. Enterprise solutions offer deep customization but demand resources and commitment, while SaaS brings agility, scalability, and ease of use. The key is understanding your organization’s needs today and anticipating where you want to be tomorrow. Technology isn’t a one-size-fits-all solution; it’s a tool to drive growth and innovation.”
