Landlord banking + software comparison
Comparing Revun vs Azibo for landlords who need more than a free US banking account
The short version
Azibo is a US-based landlord platform built around a free FDIC-insured bank account, free rent collection, and free basic accounting for small to mid-sized residential portfolios. Its core appeal is zero monthly cost: landlords pay nothing to collect rent, screen tenants, or track expenses, with revenue coming from optional add-ons and financial products. The platform is positioned squarely at independent US landlords who want a lightweight, bank-first experience and are comfortable working in a browser with no mobile app. Canadian landlords and operators who need built-in communications, AI automation, or a single subscription that replaces every third-party tool will find Azibo's feature set too narrow for their needs.
Feature by feature
| Capability | Revun | Azibo |
|---|---|---|
US + Canada compliance | Province and state rules, tax forms, and privacy frameworks built in. | US-only. Banking, ACH, and lease templates are US-specific; Canadian landlords cannot use the core product. |
All-in-one, no paid add-ons | Leasing, payments, maintenance, comms, and accounting in one price. | Free core is solid, but collaboration, e-signatures, and premium onboarding cost extra; no mobile app; no communications layer. |
Native email, SMS, VoIP, video | Every conversation logs to the unit. No third-party phone system. | No native email, SMS, VoIP, or video. Landlords must use separate tools for tenant and owner communication. |
Tenant screening included | Credit, identity, income, and references inside the leasing pipeline. | Credit, criminal, and eviction reports included; tenant typically pays the per-application fee. |
AI automation | AI drafts replies, summarizes threads, and triages maintenance. | No AI automation features documented on the platform as of mid-2026. |
Per-unit pricing, no minimums | Flat per-door. No unit floor, no monthly minimum to start. | Free plan has no unit minimums, which is generous, but add-ons (collaboration seats, e-signatures, onboarding) add up and the model is US-only. |
Built-in property accounting | Trust accounting and owner statements native, not an integration. | Double-entry bookkeeping, automated expense categorization, Schedule E, and rent roll reporting built in at no extra cost. |
Free tier for small owners | Free for 1-2 units with the full core workflow. | Genuinely free for unlimited units on the core plan; one of the most accessible free tiers in the category. |

Why operators switch
Azibo is a US-only product. Its banking, ACH rent collection, and state-specific lease templates are built exclusively for American landlords. Revun is designed from the ground up for both the US and Canada, with compliance, currency, and lease tooling that works on both sides of the border. If any of your doors are in Canada, or you plan to expand there, Azibo is a hard stop.
Azibo has no native email, SMS, VoIP, or video layer. Landlords must bolt on separate tools for tenant communication, maintenance coordination, and owner reporting. Revun ships email, SMS, VoIP, and video inside the same subscription, so every conversation is logged, searchable, and tied to the correct property record without a third-party integration.
Azibo has acknowledged gaps in maintenance tracking, has no mobile app, and charges separately for collaboration seats, e-signatures, and premium onboarding. Revun includes AI automation, built-in tenant screening, and full accounting under a single flat per-door price with no add-on fees. For a growing portfolio, the Azibo add-on bill compounds quickly, while Revun's cost stays predictable.
A fair look
Pricing
Azibo's core platform is free for landlords with unlimited units. Published pricing for optional add-ons starts around $39.99 per tenant screening application, approximately $99 per seat per year for collaboration access, and around $9.99 per lease for e-signatures. These figures reflect publicly listed rates and may change; verify current pricing at azibo.com before making a decision.
Landlords and property managers operating in both the US and Canada, or those who want email, SMS, VoIP, video, AI automation, tenant screening, and accounting under a single predictable per-door subscription without hunting for add-ons.
Independent US landlords with a small to mid-sized residential portfolio who want a zero-cost starting point, value a built-in high-yield bank account, and do not need Canadian compliance, native communications, or AI automation.
Switching is handled
Export your rent roll, lease documents, and transaction history from Azibo as CSV and PDF. Revun's onboarding team maps your unit and tenant records on import, and because Revun's accounting is double-entry from day one, your historical expense data carries over cleanly. Banking transitions require tenant payment method updates, which Revun handles through an automated tenant notification sequence so landlords do not need to chase individual renters.
FAQ
Yes, especially if you need Canadian compliance, built-in communications (email, SMS, VoIP, video), or AI automation. Azibo's free tier is hard to beat for a basic US portfolio, but once you add collaboration seats, e-signatures, and separate communication tools, Revun's flat per-door pricing often costs less overall while covering significantly more ground.
No. Azibo is a US-only platform. Its bank account is FDIC-insured and US-only, its ACH rent collection requires US bank accounts, and its lease templates are state-specific to the United States. Canadian landlords or anyone with cross-border portfolios need a platform built for both markets, which is exactly what Revun is designed for.
Yes. You can export your lease documents, tenant records, and transaction history from Azibo and import them into Revun during onboarding. Revun's team walks you through the process, and automated tenant notifications handle the payment method switch so the transition is low-friction for both you and your tenants.
Azibo's core platform is free, which looks attractive upfront. However, add-ons including collaboration seats (published at around $99 per seat per year), per-lease e-signature fees, and per-applicant screening costs accumulate as your portfolio grows. Revun charges a flat per-door rate with no unit minimums and no add-on fees for communications, screening, or AI tools, making the total cost of ownership more predictable for portfolios beyond a handful of units.
One platform for leasing, payments, maintenance, communications, and accounting across the US and Canada.
