Comparison

AryaPM vs AppFolio

AppFolio is a polished, AI-forward suite for US residential and commercial rental managers, priced per unit with a monthly minimum. AryaPM is built for the strata, condo and mixed portfolios Canadian brokerages actually manage. The right choice depends on which of those you are.

Where AppFolio is strong

Breadth for large US rental portfolios: leasing and marketing, screening, accounting, AI-assisted leasing and maintenance triage, and a large customer base. A manager with thousands of rental units in the US will find a complete suite.

Where AryaPM is different

  • Canadian by design: BC Strata Property Act workflows, Canadian data residency, CAD pricing, PIPA and PIPEDA posture.
  • Governance for boards: council hub, motions, minutes desk, bylaw enforcement with the s.135 ladder, Form B, F and K desks.
  • Direct-to-account payments with no float and resident-paid processing fees.
  • A minimum a single building can afford: $150 per month, with unlimited users and every module.
  • Onboarding waived for 2026 Founding Communities.

Who should choose which

Choose AppFolio for a large US rental portfolio that wants one suite for leasing, accounting and marketing. Choose AryaPM for a Canadian strata, condo or mixed portfolio where governance, enforcement, resident operations and the legislation matter as much as the ledger.
