One of the most rewarding experiences of the ApartmentAdda team is a customer Demo. Presenting the portal to the customer, seeing their delight at finally finding an answer to their problems, are the best hours in the workweek! The typical demos are on weekends and we promise people the Demo will be fun – and boy! are they fun! Below are a few quotes from these demos – stuff that keeps the “Adda” spirit alive and a kickin’!
“I am thinking so hard to find a feature you guys don’t have..”
“Can you make the email to maintenance-fee defaulters pop out a hand from the screen and punch them- POWW!?”
“We gave up on our spreadsheets and almost started creating our own software, thank God we found you!”
“Complaint Box?? Can you disable it – my residents will flood it!”
From the facility manager, true to his expectation, within 10 minutes of his Adda being activated, there were 6 complaints lodged! However, he now takes pride in keeping his complaint inbox empty.
“It is the BANGLA ‘Aadda’, not your UP ka ‘Addaa’ ”
One MC member (presumably Bengali) to the other, while taking their guess on the meaning of Adda
“Wow! Who wrote the requirements?!”
“Rs.100 per flat..Okay… And..?”
“When I heard the name Adda, I thought oh another fun’n'frolick site.. but then i saw the features and realized it was a full-fledged application!”
“Anna, look there’s your sheet..! Take it and hug it!”
An MC member to the treasurer – on seeing the color-coded budget page.
rtment owners in Bangalore are a little too familiar with the pains of obtaining a BBMP Khata (Khatha). Without the Khata the apartment is difficult to sell. There are many complications, specific to each builder, in the process of getting a BBMP Khata for the individual apartment. In cases, where the builder holds a CMC or other non-BBMP Khata, then the ball lies in his court to obtain the BBMP Khata. In most newly occupied apartment complexes, the Apartment Owners’ Association pursue the BBMP Khata conversion, in cooperation with the Builder.
