Panel Discussion

Yardi’s Senior Director of Middle East Sales, Said Haider, joined a panel discussion with Rebecca Hunt, partner at Octopus Ventures, Haseeb Mohammad, CEO for Atar and Hamza Betraoui, managing director for Land Sterling. The session focused on “Community Management and Property Management Software are No Longer a Luxury”.

Highlights from Haider during the panel discussion:

“Real Estate companies face challenges spanning different departments, but what most companies are struggling with is having a strong data foundation to be able to take predictive or proactive decision making.”

“It’s crucial to centralise all data elements from different departments in one location. This way, management can consistently maintain a 360-degree view of their portfolio performance and effectively leverage this data for emerging technologies, such as AI and machine learning in the future.”

“Before Yardi entered the market, real estate companies were using various disconnected solutions and were interested in Yardi for a specific aspect of their property management needs. Today, the landscape has shifted – in the real estate sector, companies prefer comprehensive end-to-end solutions to avoid disrupting their processes or encountering complex integrations that might become problematic down the road.”
