Operators in Canada and the US stitch together mismatched platforms, narrow point solutions, and legacy niche tools to run one portfolio. Revun replaces the entire stack with a single operating system built for both sides of the border.
5 to 8 disconnected tools
One operating system
Revun
One ledger, every workflow
Different tools, same complaints. These are the reasons North American property teams consolidate onto one platform.
Province-by-province compliance, Interac rails, and bilingual workflows built in — not bolted onto a US product.
PM, CRM, maintenance, comms, and accounting in one system of record. No integrations to babysit, no data silos to reconcile.
Email, SMS, VoIP, and video ship inside Revun. Every tenant conversation is logged to the unit — no third-party phone system required.
Flat per-door pricing with no unit minimums and no opaque modules. You see the number before you see a sales rep.
Real research on the vendors operators actually switch from. Pricing, gaps, Canada support, and where Revun changes the math, for every major category.

Typical operator saves
30-50%
After consolidating a PM tool, a screening tool, a maintenance tool, a comms tool, and two spreadsheets onto Revun. Median savings across 847 Revun-migrated portfolios in 2026.

Sarah W.
COO, 1,200-unit mixed portfolio
Mississauga, ON
AppFolio worked for our US tower. For our Ontario portfolio it was a disaster. N4s, rent-increase guideline updates, Interac, none of it existed. We spent 11 months doing side-jobs in spreadsheets. Revun replaced AppFolio and four of those spreadsheets in three weeks.
Marcus P.
Principal, 340-unit boutique PM
Austin, TX
Buildium for PM, Property Meld for maintenance, RingCentral for calls, DocuSign for leases. Four logins, four bills, three places to find a tenant conversation. Revun collapses the whole stack. I cut $2,800 a month in SaaS and gave my team back their afternoons.
Angela T.
Principal broker, 80 doors
Victoria, BC
I was paying $35 a report on SingleKey and running everything else out of Excel. A rent-increase mistake on one suite almost cost me a tribunal. Revun enforces BC RTB rules, screens applicants, collects rent, and archives the paperwork. I sleep now.
