Buildium vs. Cozy - What are the advantages of each?

For those of you who are familiar with each software, what does Buildium do that Cozy does not?  Buildium for me is $50/mo, whereas Cozy is free.  The main thing that I am interested in doing is online ACH rent payments.  It is beneficial that Buildium can track which appliances are in each home etc, just not sure if it's worth $50/mo.

How long does it take to get the ACH payments set up on Cozy?

    If you just want payments Cozy hands down. Free. If the tenant isn't a total dunce takes about 2 days for them to get set up properly. 5 days for money to go from their account to yours.

    If you are a property manager I would recommend setting up something like buildium to run your business. For a small owner/operator cozy would be a great option for collecting online payments.

    Thanks.  I just cancelled buildium.  I had it for 2 months and couldnt figure it out.  I got on cozy and had it running right away.  Buildium is great if you have lots of properties under various LLCs or if you manage for several ownvers.  But for single dimensional situations, it's kind of overwhelming
