Why so many teams are revisiting their core platform
Yardi has been the dominant property management software for decades. But many property managers are looking for alternatives that are faster, more modern, and AI-powered. In practice, that means less time keying data into a system and more time letting the system handle routine work automatically.
Why property managers are leaving Yardi
- Slow Implementation: Yardi implementations take months and require heavy consulting
- Outdated UX: The interface feels like software from 2010
- Limited Automation: AI features feel tacked on, not built-in
- Closed Ecosystem: Limited APIs and integrations
What to look for in a modern alternative
When evaluating Yardi alternatives, look for:
- Fast Implementation: Onboarding should be measured in days, not months
- Modern UX: The interface should feel like a consumer app
- AI-First: Automation should be built-in, not an afterthought
- Open APIs: Your data should be accessible via APIs
The modern alternative
Platforms like Looset are built AI-first from the ground up. They offer:
- • Fast onboarding (days, not months)
- • Modern, intuitive interface
- • AI agents that handle routine work
- • Open APIs by default
Making the switch
Switching from Yardi to a modern platform is easier than you think. Most teams can migrate in 60 days or less, and the ROI is immediate.
