Appfolio vs Buildium vs Yardi

[Adam Jernow]

Hi All,

I'm a long time Buildium user. Several hundred units.

The software is good overall but the accounting is week for institutions. There have been issues with auto reconciliation that take Buildium months to resolve. It's not a feature everyone uses but it's a real time saver. You should check that out if you haven't.

The bigger issue that I'm tackling now relates to trial balances. Buildium displays trial balances incorrectly and the bigger issue is that they seem resistant to repair their software code to remedy the problem.

So... I'm looking into other management software. I'll start a separate thread because although plenty of people are using Rentecdirect.com or Cozy, I need something more robust.

Is there anyone in the community that has experience using both Appfolio and Buildium and Yardi? Or other strong management software line Real page or MDS? I'd love some comparative opinions.
