HOA board software built for volunteer boards
Most HOA software is built for property management companies that run dozens of associations. Hivepoint is built for volunteer boards who manage one community — with a Windows desktop app so the board works the way board members actually work.
A Windows desktop app — not just a browser tab
Most HOA software is entirely browser-based. That means logging in through a shared computer, keeping a tab open during board meetings, and losing your session when the browser updates. Hivepoint includes a native Windows desktop app that stays open, works offline, and gives the board a dedicated tool that isn't competing with browser tabs.
- Works offline — no dropped connection during board meetings
- Stays open in the taskbar — no login required every session
- Syncs with the web platform when connected
- Web access still available for board members who prefer the browser
What's in the board toolkit
- Dues ledger — Every homeowner's payment history, current balance, and aging status. Send statements, record manual payments, and see who is 30/60/90 days past due — without a spreadsheet.
- Violation tracking — Log violations with photos, issue notices, track cure deadlines, and record fine assessments. Every violation has a full history — from first notice to resolution.
- ARC request management — Receive architectural review requests from residents, route them to the full board for review, and issue approvals or denials with a documented record.
- Document library — CC&Rs, bylaws, meeting minutes, vendor contracts — organized in one place with version history and an audit trail of who uploaded what.
- Meeting management — Build agendas, record minutes, and track votes. Meeting records stay in the system — not in the secretary's email drafts.
- Full audit trail — Every board action is logged with a timestamp and the board member responsible. Nothing gets quietly changed or deleted.
Board Edition vs Community Edition
Hivepoint comes in two editions. Board Edition is everything the board needs to run the HOA. Community Edition adds a resident-facing portal at your HOA's own domain.

Common questions
Why does Hivepoint have a Windows desktop app when most HOA software is browser-only?
Because most volunteer board members do their HOA work on a Windows PC, not a browser tab. A desktop app stays open, works offline, and doesn't require logging in through a shared browser where HOA session data might mix with personal accounts. The desktop app syncs with the web platform, so board members who prefer the browser can still use it — but the Windows app is the primary experience for most boards.
Is Hivepoint built for self-managed HOAs or for property management companies?
Self-managed HOAs specifically. Property management software is built for paid property managers who run dozens of associations — the workflows, pricing, and complexity reflect that. Hivepoint is built for the volunteer treasurer, secretary, and president who manage one community and don't want to learn a system built for professionals.
What board functions does Hivepoint cover?
Dues collection and ledger, violation tracking with photo documentation, ARC request management, document library with version history, meeting management (agendas, minutes, voting), and a full audit trail of board actions. Community Edition adds the resident-facing portal on top of all of this.
Can multiple board members use Hivepoint at the same time?
Yes. Each board member gets their own login. The treasurer, secretary, and president can all be active simultaneously. Board actions are logged with the board member who took them — so there's no confusion about who sent a violation notice or changed a dues record.
