If 2nd factor authentication is enabled on your account you will need to enter the 6-digit code to proceed, you will need your smart phone at this point. 2<sup>nd</sup> Factor Authentication is an advanced security system that prevents access to your account unless you have the time limited code.
If two-factor authentication is enabled, Standout will ask for the current six-digit code from your authenticator app. Two-factor authentication can be configured from [[Profile Configuration]].


Google Authenticator is available in both Google Play Store and Apple App Store.

Standout Property Manager Quick Start

This guide covers the essentials for a new Standout user. For detailed guidance, follow the links to the relevant help articles.

Accessing Standout

Enter your agency Client ID and your individual username, then continue to the password screen.

Every member of staff should use their own account. Do not share usernames or passwords.

If you have forgotten your password, use the password-reset option on the login screen.

Password entry

Two-factor authentication

If two-factor authentication is enabled, Standout will ask for the current six-digit code from your authenticator app. Two-factor authentication can be configured from Profile Configuration.

The Dashboard

After signing in, Standout opens the Dashboard. The dashboard provides a personalised overview of your working day, including recent properties and contacts, appointments, tasks, performance information and other business activity.

Standout dashboard

The left-hand navigation provides access to the main areas of the system:

  • Diary – appointments, valuations, viewings and tasks.
  • Properties – property records, marketing and progression.
  • Rental – tenancies, landlords, tenants and rental payments.
  • Contacts – applicants, purchasers, vendors, landlords, tenants and professional contacts.
  • Opportunity Finder – proactive prospecting from live CRM data.
  • Reports – operational and management reporting.
  • Administration – agency and system configuration.

The toolbar at the top of the screen provides notifications, page help, colleague information, profile settings and logout.

Where enabled, Standout can synchronise appointments with your Microsoft 365 / Outlook calendar. Always edit Standout-created appointments in Standout so changes can be synchronised correctly.

See Diary Overview for appointment and calendar guidance.

Working with a new seller or landlord

A typical workflow is:

  1. Create or locate the contact.
  2. Create the property at the appropriate pre-valuation stage.
  3. Link the owner/landlord to the property.
  4. Book the valuation appointment.
  5. Record the property details, valuation, photographs and marketing information.
  6. When instructed, move the property to the appropriate available/marketing status.
  7. Use viewings, offers and progression tools to manage the transaction.

See Property Overview, Adding a new Rental Property and Rental Property Overview.

Working with a new buyer or tenant

A typical workflow is:

  1. Create or locate the contact.
  2. Record their position and property requirements.
  3. Book viewings and record feedback.
  4. Record offers where appropriate.
  5. Keep their requirements current so Standout can continue matching suitable properties.

Customers can also maintain their own requirements through My Move. The customer-facing requirements are the same live requirement records that staff see in the Contact record.
