Making Your Decision
When to Choose Innago
Small landlords who want a genuinely free, no-strings-attached platform with solid customer support
Innago is the most truly free option in property management software — there are no paid tiers to upsell you into, just optional per-use fees for screening and payments. The trade-off is fewer advanced features and less polish than subscription tools. Its standout is personal customer support at no cost.
Strengths
- 100% free for landlords with no paid tiers — every core feature is available at no cost
- Dedicated personal account representatives and responsive support, even on the free plan
- Full-featured: lease e-signing, maintenance portal, automated payment reminders, and financial reporting
- Unlimited file storage and no property count limits
Limitations
- Limited customization for rental applications and screening questions
- Fewer integrations and less listing syndication reach than TurboTenant or Avail
- Some users report payment processing delays and occasional bugs
When to Choose Hemlane
Remote or out-of-state landlords who want software-plus-services without hiring a full-service property manager
Hemlane's hybrid model is genuinely unique — it fills the gap between DIY software and full-service management with optional human support for repairs, showings, and tenant communication. The free tier is a strong entry point, but per-unit costs on higher tiers are steep for larger portfolios.
Strengths
- Unique hybrid management model — combines DIY software with optional local agents and 24/7 repair coordinators
- Free-forever Starter tier with rent collection, applicant tracking, and basic screening
- Complete plan includes a dedicated property management assistant for tenant communications
- 100% of rent reaches owners with no hidden deductions on any plan
Limitations
- Per-unit pricing on paid tiers ($2-$58/unit + base fee) gets expensive for larger portfolios
- Smaller user base than competitors means fewer community resources and integrations
- Accounting features are basic compared to dedicated platforms like Buildium or Rentec Direct
