Hammock Avis 

I have just started using the Hammock property management application, primarily because of its support for HMRC Making Tax Digital (MTD). The system is extremely well designed, very straight forward to use and the open banking feed makes tracking transactions against the properties very easy, many being done automatically by the application. The company is also providing zoom sessions for Landlords to explain both the application and MTD ... Mathew the presenter is very knowledgable and incredibly helpful. I recommend the application and company to any landlords who have yet to tackle MTD.

We have to do MTD this year and, after research, chose Hammock for our property portfolio. Initially, we struggled with setting it up, but Himayat from the support team was absolutely brilliant and sorted out all of our issues. We now feel comfortable that we will be able to cope with MTD with less effort than it previously took me to do the accounts on an Excel spreadsheet!

I tried many software products for "getting MTD ready" and I can say Hammock is the most user friendly software of them all hands down. It has the feel of thinking of all the landlord needs.
I had some technical issues, Priya was fantastic, fast and efficient response and quickly resolve

After struggling for years trying to do our accounts on Excel we discovered Hammock, Oh! magic. It's sooo intuitive, taking bank details straight from the account to the display, and noting what they are automatically, divvying up the amount to 'rent', 'agent fee' etc.
The AI help bot is really good and couldn't care less how many times you ask it the same question as you did last week. We've just completed our free trial and will be keeping it, I just wish we'd discovered it years ago.

I've just started using Hammock and while it takes a little bit to get up to speed, the system is simple enough and should hopefully help me navigate MTD.

Really pleased after 10 months of using Hammock Landlord software, it has simplified all admin related to our small portfolio of properties not only the accounting-side. Having this one stop portal for mortgage, tenant, EPC, Gas Safety, Electrical Safety etc details, providing reminders in good time of when renewals are needed, will ensure compliance more easily. I wish I had moved over from spreadsheets earlier - little did I know how easy and helpful it was going to be.

I signed up early with MTD.All was smooth.
Divorcing mid financial year meant that some properties that had been shared became solely mine.
Hammocks portfolio system made this seamless despite my anxieties, and I was very ably and most kindly supported by Himayat and Mary Grace. I'm leaving this review to express my thanks to them and to recommend them to their Managers. Hammock are very lucky to have such wonderful staff - as are Hammock's customers. Highly recommend - exceptional service.

Does not work as promised prior to paying for it. Does not support rent a room so am very concerned when i have to make my first mtd submisstion

very happy with the software, had a question for the supprt team which was answered very quickly by Camilla.

Outstanding support from day 1. James and his team tirelessly helped me to solve my issue with technology with a friendly, efficient and attentive approach. I strongly recommend the Hammock platform, I am very impressed.

We previously used spreadsheets for a modest portfolio but MTD was the turning point. We are also Xero users for company accounts, but Hammond offers property management features and reminders which help us keep our house in order (no pun intended). I have been in the software industry for more than 40 years and can honestly say the software was incredibly easy to set up. However, when I have needed guidance, the responses have been accurate, to the point and helpful straight away with little wait time. Sooo refreshing!

I am an accountant ACMA (sole practitioner) and have a number of rental clients. Today one of my elderly clients who have never even used a web browser started using Hammock software for her rental properties (both standard and FHL) instead of manual handwritten sheets of paper.
She arrived in a pannic, stressed out and worried. After 2.5 hours she left with the biggest smile and zero stress.
She is over the moon with this software that is specifically for landlords. I have a number of landlord clients and they will all be on Hammock within the month. Setting up is so straitforward I did not even have to watch the tutorial videos. It is intuitive and has some great features.

After some research, and an online Q&A with them, I opted to use Hammock as my accounting software for my property income reporting for MTD. As is to be expected there is some initial set up to enter all the required property information which I found intuitive and straightforward to do. Having entered all the information the software gives additional useful information that I wasn't getting with my simple spreadsheets. Linking the software to bank accounts and then subsequently to HMRC was an easy task. I have a small number of properties that I own jointly with a colleague and the software allows for split ownership portfolios, reporting my share of the income and expenses combined with my solely owned portfolio properties. Hammock is a great system with helpful and friendly user support.

I’ve been using Hammock for nearly 3 years now. It was recommended to me by my accountant and I can’t help feeling it’s done them out of business. Hammock is really easy to use and within a day or so I was running my rental business (22 properties) with massively more clarity. I feel I can expand - which I certainly couldn’t before. It more than paid for itself in the first year when I used it to bring together the figures I needed for the previous tax year’s submission and it picked up a large insurance charge that I’d completely missed. I dreaded having to learn (and pay for!) Xero or another of the big generalised accounting packages and I’ve been excited to find this easy-to-use and cheaper package which is specifically for landlords.

We are carrying out a comparison of software to meet MTD for landlords. In terms of design and ease of use Hammock is by far the best option being tailored for landlords' business. In contrast Xero, always top of the Google search, is impractical and very difficult to configure correctly (no support or help).

The really impressive part is the support - excellent guides, videos and outstanding email support from James Kilpatrick.

I have signed up to Hammock in anticipation of HRMC MTD coming in next year.
I absolutely love the App and the website. They are both really easy to use.
I have even signed up for the MTD pilot and submitting the quarterly report is really simple.
When I first read that I was going to have to do MTD next year I was a bit worried, but now I feel confident that I am fully prepared thanks to Hammock.

As a landlord with several properties, I have been looking for a software program that is not just for accounting, but for the needs of a working landlord. I have been with Xero for the past 5 years, and while this software is a great accounting tool, it lacks that landlord touch. Hammock has all the extras that make using it, in my view, far more landlord-friendly. Hammock allows for more details that, as a landlord, I want to record. mortgage payment, rent payment date, and tracking any payment that hasn't been completed. Also, very importantly, the customer service has been excellent. I have been firing off emails with numerous questions, all have been answered with pictures. It is always a worrying experience starting to use Accounting software, but for MTD, Hammock is a very good choice

So, apart from my trusty mobile phone and the occasional letter in Microsoft Word, I’ve never really had much experience with computer software. When MTD was announced, I was completely clueless! Not being one to procrastinate, we decided to start looking into accounting software options. After weeks of research, we stumbled upon Hammock, which seemed to be more tailored to our needs as landlords.

We decided to give it a try on the 30-day free trial, and let me tell you, what I thought would be a daunting task turned out to be an enjoyable, easy, and exciting journey! I wish I had known about this landlord management software years ago.

Their support team has been absolutely fantastic. They’ve been incredibly responsive and knowledgeable, especially Matt, who has guided us through the entire process step by step.

Thanks a million, Hammock! You’re the best!

Cheers,
Adam and Marcia

The platform is incredibly easy to use and has made managing my properties so much simpler.

The “how to” guides are clear, practical, and genuinely helpful — no jargon, just straightforward advice. What really sets Hammock apart is the customer support. There’s a real person at the end of the phone when you need that extra bit of help, and they’re always friendly and knowledgeable.

Really wish I’d signed up sooner!

Really great software - simple and user friendly from both a landlord and accounting perspective. The support team are great and always respond to and help with queries super quickly. Really impressed and keep recommending to all my clients!
