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; TenantCloud the accounting is categorised income and expense rather than a double entry general ledger, so it will not support trust accounting or the owner statements a licensed third-party manager has to produce.

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

TenantCloud

  • The accounting is categorised income and expense rather than a double entry general ledger, so it will not support trust accounting or the owner statements a licensed third-party manager has to produce.
  • Plans are banded by unit count, which means crossing a band boundary by a single unit steps the monthly bill up rather than nudging it, and the bands are where most of the vendor pricing power sits.
  • A large share of the vendor economics comes from screening fees, insurance commissions and payment processing rather than the subscription, so the true annual cost depends on volume you cannot see when you sign up.
  • Owner reporting is thin because the product assumes the landlord is the owner, which makes it unsuitable the moment you start managing property for someone else.
  • Support and product depth trail Buildium and AppFolio noticeably, and the escape route when you outgrow it is a migration to a different vendor rather than an upgrade path within this one.

Answered from the vendors’ own pages

Follow Up Boss: What is the cheapest Follow Up Boss plan?

The Grow plan starts at $69 per user per month. This includes basic features like lead organization, smart lists, automation, calling, texting, email, and mobile app access. Add-ons like calling features may incur additional charges.

Source
TenantCloud: Can I use it to manage property for other owners?

Not properly. There is no trust accounting and owner statements are limited, so a licensed manager holding client money should look at Buildium or Rent Manager.

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
TenantCloud: Who pays for tenant screening?

Usually the applicant, though the landlord can absorb it. The screening fee is a separate charge from the subscription and is part of how the vendor earns.

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
TenantCloud: What happens when I cross a unit band?

The monthly price steps to the next band immediately, so a portfolio sitting one unit over a boundary pays for headroom it is not using.

TenantCloud: Does it handle commercial units?

Only in a basic way. There is no CAM reconciliation or commercial escalation handling.
