The short version

  • Only Matterport has a free tier, so it costs nothing to try first.
  • Each has a real cost: Matterport the free plan allows 1 active space and 2 users; 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.
  • They diverge on capability: Matterport covers 3D capture, Propertyware covers Custom fields and screens.
  • 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.

Matterport

  • The free plan allows 1 active space and 2 users
  • The plans page shows no dollar amounts; price is set by the number of active spaces and only appears after selecting a plan
  • Paid plans are billed annually and each tier caps both active spaces and users, from 5 to 20 spaces and 3 users on Starter up to 100 to 300 spaces and 50 users on Business
  • Enterprise and government plans are contact sales with no published rate
  • Spaces beyond the plan allowance require moving to a higher tier rather than paying an incremental fee shown on the page

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.

Specific pricing information is available on a dedicated Pricing page or by contacting Matterport's sales team at +1(888) 993-8990 or through the 'Get a Demo' option.

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