Higher Education Property Management Software on Salesforce
Booking Ninjas is the leading AI-powered, Salesforce-native property management system for higher education institutions, designed to manage campus and off-campus properties from one centralized platform. It supports residence halls, faculty housing, university-owned apartments, and affiliated off-campus properties by unifying occupancy, maintenance, billing, and operational workflows directly inside Salesforce.
Solutions We Provide For Higher Education
Fragmented systems for campus housing, off-campus units, and faculty residences
Limited visibility across multiple property types and locations
Manual unit assignments and lease or term-based tracking
Disconnected maintenance workflows across departments
Inconsistent reporting across campus and off-campus operations
Why an AI-Powered PMS Matters for Higher Education
Higher education institutions manage far more than traditional residence halls. Campus housing, off-campus apartments, faculty residences, and mixed-use properties all require coordinated oversight and real-time visibility.
Automated Occupancy Intelligence
Automated unit and occupancy tracking across campus and off-campus properties eliminates manual updates and ensures accurate, real-time availability across all housing types.
Smarter Maintenance Prioritization
AI-driven insights intelligently prioritize maintenance issues across departments, helping teams respond faster, allocate resources better, and reduce operational disruptions.
Full Visibility & Data-Driven Decisions
Real-time dashboards replace manual cross-system reporting while surfacing underutilized or overbooked properties early—supporting better planning and asset optimization.
