Built for management company portfolios. Hivepoint is built for self-managed boards.
Enumerate is an enterprise HOA management platform formed from the merger of TOPS Software and Caliber. It serves professional property management companies managing large portfolios of communities — not self-managed volunteer boards. Enumerate offers deep accounting, GL integration, vendor management, and multi-community workflows that require trained staff to operate. Self-managed boards typically cannot purchase Enumerate directly, and even if they could, the complexity and per-community pricing make it impractical for a single 80-home subdivision.
What is Enumerate?
Enumerate is a cloud-based HOA management platform designed for professional property management companies. It offers portfolio-level accounting, work-order management, violation tracking, owner communications, and a homeowner portal. Enumerate serves management companies managing dozens to hundreds of communities simultaneously, with features built for multi-community oversight, staff workflows, and GL-level financial reporting. It was formed from the acquisition and merger of TOPS Software and Caliber by private equity.

Use case 3: Board transitioning away from a management company
When Enumerate is the right choice
Enumerate is genuinely well-suited for the right organization. It makes sense if:
- You're a professional property management company managing a portfolio of 10 or more communities
- You have full-time accounting staff familiar with GL-level HOA accounting
- You need multi-community dashboards and portfolio-level reporting
- Your organization has the infrastructure to procure, onboard, and maintain enterprise software
- You need work-order dispatch workflows across multiple communities with dedicated maintenance staff
Professional property management companies managing a portfolio of 10+ communities with full-time accounting and management staff. Enumerate's GL integration, multi-community dashboards, and work-order dispatch are built for organizations with the infrastructure to use them.
If this describes your situation instead:
- You're a volunteer board managing a single community
- You don't have a management company or professional property manager
- You need software your treasurer can open and use without a training program
Enumerate was not built for you — and that's not a criticism, it's just an honest assessment. Hivepoint was.

Common questions about Enumerate vs. Hivepoint
Is Enumerate available for self-managed HOAs?
Enumerate is designed and sold to professional property management companies, not individual HOAs or self-managed volunteer boards. Purchasing Enumerate as a single self-managed community is generally not possible through standard channels — the platform is structured for management company portfolios. Even if access were available, the per-community pricing and complexity would make it impractical for a single subdivision managed by volunteers.
What is the relationship between Enumerate and TOPS Software?
Enumerate was formed through the acquisition and merger of TOPS Software and Caliber by private equity. TOPS Software was a long-standing HOA accounting and management platform used by property managers across the country. After the merger, TOPS was rebranded and consolidated under the Enumerate name. If you're researching TOPS specifically, see our TOPS Software alternative page for a dedicated comparison.
How does Enumerate's pricing work for a small HOA?
Enumerate does not publish pricing — it is enterprise-negotiated and structured per community within a management company portfolio. A single self-managed HOA cannot typically obtain a quote directly. Pricing is designed to spread across a portfolio of dozens or hundreds of communities managed by a single company with full-time staff. The cost model is fundamentally incompatible with the budget of a single self-managed community.
What features does Enumerate offer that Hivepoint doesn't?
Enumerate is built for multi-community portfolio management at scale. It offers GL-level accounting integrations, multi-community dashboard oversight, work-order dispatch workflows, staff management tools, and accounting features designed for full-time financial staff. These are genuine capabilities with real value for a management company running 50+ communities with accountants on payroll. Hivepoint does not offer multi-community portfolio views or GL accounting integrations — it is purpose-built for a single self-managed HOA.
Can a volunteer board realistically use Enumerate?
In practice, no. Enumerate assumes the presence of trained property management staff, accountants familiar with HOA GL accounting, and an organization that can procure enterprise software through a sales process. Volunteer boards — typically three to seven homeowners with limited time — need software they can configure and use without training programs or dedicated support staff. The onboarding complexity of an enterprise platform alone would stall most volunteer boards.
What do self-managed boards use instead of enterprise platforms like Enumerate?
Self-managed HOA boards typically need a platform designed specifically for their use case: one that covers violations and covenant enforcement, ARC request tracking, financial reporting at the board level (not GL accounting), dues collection, a resident portal, and document storage — all without requiring professional property management training or enterprise procurement. Hivepoint was built specifically for this segment: volunteer boards managing a single community who want all core governance tools at a flat annual price.
