Grosvenor Systems' Journey to the Cloud: Property Management Software for the Future

At Grosvenor Systems, our transition to cloud-based property management software has been years in the making. From the early days of our Propman cloud offering to our current innovation with PropBI, we’ve taken deliberate, customer-led steps toward a smarter, more connected future.

This is not just a cloud migration story—it’s the evolution of how property management is done.

Why Cloud-Based Property Management Is the Future

Property management companies are under growing pressure to modernise, streamline operations, and extract more value from their data. Cloud technology is no longer a “nice-to-have”, it’s essential.

At Grosvenor Systems, we’ve embraced this opportunity. Today, 30% of our customers already use Propman in the cloud, and we’re investing heavily to make that number grow.

Key Benefits of Propman Cloud Migration for Property Management Companies

• Improved data security  through AWS’s industry-leading compliance standards
• Faster system performance  and fewer outages
• Scalable hosting  with reduced infrastructure costs
• Greener tech – AWS is up to 4.1x more energy efficient than traditional systems
• Smoother feature releases  and integrations using APIs

Our Cloud Journey: A Timeline of Innovation

Our move to the cloud hasn’t been rushed. It’s been strategic.

• 2020: Propman Cloud launches
• 2021–2022: Key system improvements: invoice scanning, security enhancements, dynamic emails
• 2023: We joined the AWS Migration Acceleration Programme (MAP 2.0) and began planning a future-ready architecture
• 2025: Launch of PropBI, our first cloud-native business intelligence solution

This journey reflects our commitment to long-term transformation, not short-term fixes.

Why We Chose AWS for Propman Cloud Hosting

We partnered with Amazon Web Services (AWS) because of their unmatched scale, security, and track record.

• 31% global market share in cloud infrastructure
• Compliance with the highest security standards, including ISO 27001
• Continuous innovation and support for rapid feature development
• A strong alignment with our customer-focused philosophy
