When to Choose Rent Manager
Mid-to-large property managers with diverse, mixed-use portfolios who need deep customization and enterprise-grade accounting
Rent Manager is one of the most feature-rich and flexible property management systems available, backed by nearly four decades of development. Its power comes at the cost of a dated UI and a steep learning curve. Best for experienced operators managing diverse property types who need depth over simplicity.
Strengths
- Extremely deep feature set with 450+ built-in reports and full double-entry accounting
- Handles all property types — residential, commercial, self-storage, manufactured housing, and short-term stays
- Dedicated customer success teams, Rent Manager University training, and comprehensive knowledge base
- Longest track record in the industry (37+ years) with continuous modern development
Limitations
- Interface feels dated with more clicks than necessary for everyday tasks
- Steep learning curve — requires significant training investment for new teams
- Add-on fees and per-user charges make total cost less transparent than advertised
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
