The short version

  • Each has a real cost: Follow Up Boss pro plan is priced for a 10 user minimum at $499 per month, with additional seats at $49 per month each; Propertyware pricing is per unit against a monthly minimum and there is a separate implementation fee, usually a multiple of the monthly subscription, so first-year cost is well above twelve times the running rate.

Where each one falls short

Documented limitations, not opinions. Every one is a constraint you would hit in normal use.

Follow Up Boss

  • Pro plan is priced for a 10 user minimum at $499 per month, with additional seats at $49 per month each
  • Platform plan requires a 30 user minimum at $1,000 per month
  • Calling is not included on the entry Grow plan and costs an extra $39 per user per month
  • Discounted per user rates require annual billing

Propertyware

  • Pricing is per unit against a monthly minimum and there is a separate implementation fee, usually a multiple of the monthly subscription, so first-year cost is well above twelve times the running rate.
  • Propertyware sits inside RealPage alongside strategic enterprise platforms, so the practical risk is not that it stops working but that it receives maintenance rather than development; ask for a written roadmap and end-of-life notice period.
  • The interface is dated relative to newer cloud entrants, and the configurability that makes it capable also makes it slow to set up, which is why implementation is chargeable in the first place.
  • It is built for scattered-site single-family stock, so apartment community workflows, commercial leases and HOA management are all poorly served.
  • RealPage is the defendant in United States antitrust litigation concerning its revenue management software, which does not affect this product directly but is a factor when you are weighing a multi-year contract with the parent.

Source
Propertyware: Is Propertyware still being developed?

That is the question to put to the vendor in writing. It belongs to RealPage, whose development focus is its enterprise multifamily platforms, so ask for a release history and a stated end-of-life notice period.

Follow Up Boss: How many users are included in Follow Up Boss plans?

Grow is priced per user. Pro includes 10 users for $499/month with additional users at $49/month. Platform includes 30 users for $1,000/month with additional users at $20/month. The Pro and Platform tiers offer significant per-user discounts for additional team members.

Source
Propertyware: Why is there an implementation fee?

Because the product is configured rather than switched on. Custom fields, portals and owner fee rules are set up during onboarding, and the fee is typically a multiple of the monthly subscription.

Follow Up Boss: Does Follow Up Boss offer a free trial?

Yes, Follow Up Boss offers a 14-day free trial with easy migration and no contracts required. All plans include 7-day/week phone and email support, unlimited contacts, lead sources, and integrations.

Source
Propertyware: Does it work for apartment communities?

Not well. It is designed for scattered-site single-family portfolios; apartment operators are steered towards other RealPage products.

Propertyware: Can I get my data out?

Yes, through the open API and standard exports, which is worth exercising during evaluation rather than at the point you decide to leave.
