The short version

  • Each has a real cost: Fracttal One pricing is not published, so it cannot be compared against MaintainX or Limble without a sales conversation; Properly properly solves only the turnover, so it is an additional per-property cost on top of a PMS that already claims to schedule cleaning, and the overlap is real.
  • They diverge on capability: Fracttal One covers Work order management, Properly covers Photo-verified checklists.
  • Prices and features above were last checked on 31 August 2026.

Where each one falls short

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

Fracttal One

  • Pricing is not published, so it cannot be compared against MaintainX or Limble without a sales conversation
  • English-language documentation and community are thinner than the Spanish equivalents, which reverses the usual problem
  • Smaller partner and integration ecosystem than the US-headquartered competitors
  • Less recognised on English-language shortlists, which can make internal approval harder in multinational procurement
  • The IoT capability requires sensor investment to be worth anything, and the business case for that is separate from the CMMS decision

Properly

  • Properly solves only the turnover, so it is an additional per-property cost on top of a PMS that already claims to schedule cleaning, and the overlap is real.
  • The photo requirement adds time to every clean, and cleaners paid per turnover often resist it, which becomes a negotiation about rates rather than a software rollout.
  • Real-time inspection is billed at five dollars per inspection rather than included, so using it on every changeover materially changes the per-property cost.
  • The managed services tiers are priced an order of magnitude above the software, and operators sometimes discover the pitch is really about those rather than the app.
  • The cleaner marketplace has depth only in established North American destinations, and in thinner markets a missed turnover still means calling round yourself.

Answered from the vendors’ own pages

Fracttal One: Where is Fracttal strongest?

Latin America and Spain. Native Spanish and Portuguese support, regional implementation partners and local invoicing decide more maintenance software purchases in those markets than feature comparisons do.

Properly: What does Properly actually cost per property?

The platform starts at 12.99 US dollars per property per month, falling toward 5 dollars at higher volumes. Remote inspections cost 5 dollars each on top.

Fracttal One: What does it cost?

Not published. Pricing is quoted by tier and region, which is normal for this market but makes direct comparison harder.

Properly: Does it replace my property management system?

No. It connects to one and covers turnovers only. Distribution, guest messaging and accounting stay elsewhere.

Fracttal One: Does it do predictive maintenance?

It supports sensor-triggered maintenance through its IoT layer. Whether that constitutes predictive maintenance depends on the sensors and the analysis behind them, not on the CMMS.

Properly: Will cleaners actually use it?

They will if you require it, but the mandatory photo steps lengthen each clean and often need to be reflected in what you pay per turnover.

Fracttal One: Is it a good choice for a US-only operation?

Usually not the obvious one. MaintainX, UpKeep and Limble have published pricing, larger English-language ecosystems and more local reference customers.

Properly: Does it help with damage claims?

Yes. Timestamped before and after photographs from the checklist are the main evidence operators use when claiming against a guest.

Fracttal One: How does it compare to the US mid-market CMMS?

Functionally comparable. The decision is normally about language, support hours and local presence rather than about features.
