Looking for a Rently alternative?
Get AI-powered leasing automation without the hardware investment. Avery is software-only, transparent pricing, and works for portfolios of any size.
Rently pain points
Here is how Avery offers a different approach.
Hardware Lock-In
Rently requires proprietary smart locks, access panels, cameras, and sensors. That is a significant upfront investment—and switching later means losing that investment.
Avery is 100% software. Use your existing access system, or our ID-verified codes. No hardware to buy, install, or maintain.
Opaque Pricing
Rently does not publish pricing. You need to request a custom quote, which typically means a sales process and negotiation.
AveryIQ publishes one $50 monthly base with every software feature, unlimited properties, units and users, and monthly usage credits.
Enterprise-Focused
Rently is built for large operators like Greystar and Progress Residential. Smaller portfolios may not get the same attention or pricing.
Avery works great for portfolios of any size—from 50 to 5,000+ units. You get the same AI-powered features regardless of size.
Complex Implementation
Deploying Rently across a portfolio means installing hardware at every property. That takes time, coordination, and ongoing maintenance.
Avery deploys in days, not weeks. No installation appointments, no hardware failures, no battery changes.

Rently vs Avery FAQ
Can I use Avery alongside Rently hardware?
Yes. If you have already invested in smart locks or access hardware, Avery can work alongside them. Our software handles the AI-powered lead nurturing and qualification while you continue using your existing access system.
What if I need smart home features like leak sensors?
Avery focuses on leasing automation and AI, not smart home hardware. If you need sensors and cameras, you might use Rently for hardware and Avery for leasing—or use standalone smart home products.
Is Rently better for self-guided tours?
Rently pioneered self-guided tours with hardware. But Avery offers software-based self-access with ID verification—no hardware needed. For many portfolios, our approach is simpler and more cost-effective.
How do I migrate from Rently?
We import your leads and set up your workflows within 5-7 business days. If you want to keep using Rently hardware for access control, you can—Avery handles the leasing automation layer on top.
Is Avery right for large portfolios?
Yes. AveryIQ includes unlimited properties, units, and users in the $50 monthly base. Larger teams can request a guided walkthrough during onboarding to discuss migration and integration requirements.
