It also claims to optimise the quality and consistency of their repairs service, increasing tenant satisfaction as a result, with RepairSense.

“Paul’s enthusiasm and passion for the Social Housing sector is apparent to anyone who meets him,” said Mobysoft chair Ken Briddon.
“Paul has formed and now leads highly skilled and knowledgeable teams. Under his leadership I – and the rest of Mobysoft’s board – are highly confident that he will further accelerate Mobysoft’s growth and product development, while retaining our commitment to an excellent service ethos.
“I would also like to use this opportunity to sincerely thank Alex Karle for his years of commitment to bring the company where it is today, as he now has decided to step down from his CEO role. I wish him all the best of luck for the future.”
Evans added: “I am excited about the opportunity to lead the team at Mobysoft. Mobysoft has been very successful in combining customer and sector insight into technology solutions that deliver excellent outcomes for social housing providers and its customers.
“In recent years Mobysoft has transitioned from a single product – the industry-leading predictive analytics product RentSense – to a multi-product business.
“We work closely with our partners with a consistent objective of delivering proven outcomes. I am looking forward to further developing Mobysoft’s clear sector objective of providing best of breed technology and service for the social housing sector and their tenants.”
