Yardi Software Products

Hello everyone, Currently in the search for an ERP vendor for a professional property management firm managing a mix of residential/commercial/retail/rural portfolios. Looking at either an established isv within this vertical such as Yardi / Domin-8 or the tier 1 solutions ie Oracle Property Manager / SAP Real Estate. So far through research have come across Yardi Voyager by Yardi Systems; Spectra by Domin-8; Skyline Property Management by SS&C; MRI by MRI (formerly Intuit Real Estate Solutions). Does anybody have any experience with the above products? If so any feedback welcome. Also should I be looking at any other products or vendors? Regarding Oracle / SAP; how does SAP cost compare to Oracle? The Oracle E-business suite price list is available online so have been able to get a rough estimate. Is SAP cost competitive? Any additional feedback very welcome. Thanks all.
I recently looked at MRI, Yardi and Skyline with a property management / developer client. All three apps offered spot-on industry functionality. At a very high level, I found their differences to be: 1) MRI offered a phenomenal customization toolkit 2) Yardi was hosted so it has a great total cost of ownership and 3) Skyline has a very nice product at a lower cost entry point.
Start discussing what your goals are with this system. Why are you
doing this? What problems do you have to solve? Where does the
business want to be in 2 years? 5? 10? How do you uniquely
compete with your competition? What advantage do you have that
the software needs to support? How many properties do you
have? How many people?
Real estate vertical is unique in its own way. I would suggest to look at tier -1 solutions only. The customized solutions may be fulfilling part our requirements now that too wid huge cost differentiation as compared to tier-1 ERP but looking future growth its not wise decision.
If i talk about my personal experience there are more than 5 real estate companies in Mumbai which had scraped there existing ERP and implemented SAP ERP. SAP has specialized solution for real estate and being one of the leader in SAP channels area, we had implemented the same at many cases.
If your organization is focused purely on Real Estate only, then you can go for the solutions specifically built for that industry. If your organization is into the overall value chain which includes Land Acquisition, Land clearing, Construction, Sales and Property Management, then it would be better to look at a tier-1 solution with specific Industry module you require.
