AppFolio Reviews

Pros

This company knows how to hire! I get the pleasure of working alongside quality and driven people-- all day long. From the top-down, the culture at AppFolio is one of a kind. Whether you are a top exec or brand new to the company, everybody is somebody here. My input is valued and my development is as important to my managers as it is to me.

In my 2.5 years at AppFolio, I have had 3 promotions and the opportunities are endless. With multiple Professional Development opportunities and courses available, I am truly in control of my career path.

We are constantly collaborating with other departments, which creates a challenging yet rewarding environment. Work hard, play hard. We celebrate our successes!

Other than the above-- catered lunches, unlimited snacks, happy hours, holiday parties, ping pong tournaments, Mario Kart races AND amazing benefits.. the list goes on. I also love that AppFolio puts a huge focus on giving back to the community (big win!).

Advice to Management

Keep doing what you're doing. I love that in the past 2.5 years, I have seen us grow incredibly fast, yet I still feel as valued from day one as I do today. Management, from our CEO to our Department Managers, all take the time to know us as individuals. Our input matters. Do what you can to keep this-- as it sets AppFolio apart from other companies.

Pros

No matter if you work in Dallas, or Santa Barbara, the culture travels and everyone is so positive, encouraging and motivated across all corners of AppFolio!

Pros

I started at AppFolio nearly two years ago as an intern (Data Quality Coordinator). From day one, I was given numerous opportunities and was able to make an immediate impact. The company rewards hard work and gives you the autonomy to find new ways to improve the role. The BDR program comes with great mentorship and offers a logical path into software sales. You are constantly working with the sales team so it's an easy way to learn about that role. Going into the BDR program with an open mind and a strong work ethic will help you hit the ground running. If you are interested in software sales but still need experience, this is a great option.

Pros

I started as an intern (Data Quality Coordinator) at AppFolio nearly two years ago. From day one, I was given numerous opportunities and was able to make an immediate impact. I had an interest in sales and worked my way into the BDR program. During my time as a BDR, I had the pleasure of working with driven co-workers and received great coaching from management. The BDR role gives great insight into the sales role because you are constantly in communication with that team. If you are interested in software sales but still need to gain some experience then I highly recommend this role/company.

Pros

I've been at AppFolio just shy of 2 years and in that short time I've moved from a more entry-level position of Data Migration Specialist in the onboarding department all the way to managing an entire team in the onboarding department. The growth potential here is insane and I'm not an outlier. Most of my peers have moved up to senior or manager positions as well. My department alone has more than doubled in size since I've been here.

I've been at several companies before starting at AppFolio and my only shame is that it took me this long to find it. It still blows my mind that this is some people's 1st or 2nd job. I can't imagine where I'd be today if I started here 8-10 years ago instead of grinding it out at other companies. It sounds cliche to talk about the "culture" but that's exactly what keeps me at AppFolio. The company truly cares about its employees and it shows across compensation, benefits packages, PTO, and all the great amenities they provide.

Beyond that, they deliver a truly amazing product that I feel confident standing behind which makes my interactions with customers all so much easier. I've been at companies before where I didn't believe in the product or level of service we provided and as such it was hard to feel invested in the company or want to stay. AppFolio is basically the opposite of that.

To sum it all up, I'm here for the long haul.

Advice to Management

None

Pros

Everyone at AppFolio is extremely welcoming and friendly, I even had several people stop by to encourage me when I was walking in for my interview. One of my favorite things about AppFolio is that I get to go into work every day with a group of incredibly talented people who are also down to earth and friendly. It creates
 an inspiring workplace culture where I feel consistently challenged but also excited to come in and contribute.

Additionally, there have been constant growth opportunities as we continue to grow so there are always new challenges to focus on developing my career. AppFolio does a great job of being transparent about the requirements to move into new roles and providing resources to enable us to get there.

Advice to Management

Keep up the great work! One of the things that really differentiates AppFolio is the culture and I am grateful there is such an emphasis on maintaining this as we grow.
