When to Choose DoorLoop
Tech-forward property managers with mid-to-large portfolios who want the most polished modern interface and AI-powered features
DoorLoop is the premium, design-first option for property management. Its modern interface and AI features justify the higher price for managers who value UX and are willing to pay for it. The per-unit surcharge and feature gating on lower tiers make it the most expensive choice for small landlords.
Strengths
- Highest-rated user interface in the category — #1 on G2 with 4.89/5 from 1,800+ reviews
- AI-powered features including AI Assistant and AI Inspections ahead of competitors on the AI curve
- Handles residential, commercial, student housing, affordable housing, and HOAs in one platform
- Strong integration ecosystem via Zapier and open API with QuickBooks sync
Limitations
- Most expensive option in this tier — $59/mo base plus $3/unit surcharge adds up quickly
- Key features like free eSignatures, free ACH, and API access locked behind Premium plan ($169/mo)
- Youngest platform (launched 2021) with less proven track record despite heavy VC funding
