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; 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.
  • They diverge on capability: Matterport covers 3D capture, TenantCloud covers Unit-banded plans.
  • 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

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.

Yes, Matterport offers a 'Start Free' option that allows users to create accounts and begin using the platform without immediate payment.

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.

Matterport: How can I access Matterport's pricing details?

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.

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.

Matterport: What industries can use Matterport's solutions?

Matterport serves multiple industries including Corporate Real Estate, Property Marketing, Facilities Management, and Design & Construction, suggesting pricing may vary by industry use case.

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.
