Properties are great investments to have. Managing them requires carefulness to ensure that you get a good profit at the end of each month. Cozy is a great and reliable software that I always use because it helps me not only in advertising each property but also helps me collecting rent. Cozy is easy to use and also affordable to use. It makes property management an excellent and enjoyable task

What a wonderful software. You can also access rent collection setup buy sharing documents more so with a renters insurance. Nice work! because you just need to invite your tenants, by sending them an email of an invoice that guides them on how to pay rent.
That's It, thank you Cozy for solving my problems.

  ### 7. Cozy Review

**Rating:** 2.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Business Supplies and Equipment | Enterprise (> 1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** March 07, 2019

**What do you like best about Apartments.com Rental Manager?**

I like cozy because it is very convenient and affordable to use. You can receive payments effectively and its a great and reliable tool to use when it comes to managing money. I also like that they offer credit and background checks through their service for a pretty good price. 

**What do you dislike about Apartments.com Rental Manager?**

What I dislike about cozy is that the customer service is not the best, I have not had any big issues but I feel like they should focus on satisfying their customers and helping them with their wants and needs. Also, Cozy doesn't have a way to create a lease through them which would be very beneficial to those who would like that service. 

**Recommendations to others considering Apartments.com Rental Manager:**

Try it out! It is definitely worth a try and it will make your life easier as a landlord or if you're working in the property management business.

**What problems is Apartments.com Rental Manager solving and how is that benefiting you?**

  ### 19. So simple, it makes me want to buy a building!

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Stef B. | Sole Proprietor, Real Estate, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** August 13, 2017

**What do you like best about Apartments.com Rental Manager?**

Cozy has really changed the game for landlords and agents alike. It's really is a one stop shop. Posting the apartment with syndication to other sites for maximum views online. Once you get a an interested applicant you can process their application online and it's connected to the unit.  Once the application is accepted, you can then add rental payments and delineate what is rent and what is security. This has proven invaluable for renting rooms. Management companies will save a fortune using Cozy. And it;s very organised and easy for your staff to learn. Almost no learning curve..

**What do you dislike about Apartments.com Rental Manager?**

These is no way to post only a room at this time. The support team is very responsive and has agreed to look into this for the future. 

**Recommendations to others considering Apartments.com Rental Manager:**

Landlords, roommates and agents should all be using this great product. The syndication is my favorite part of this product. I was surprised to see how many places leads were coming from.

**What problems is Apartments.com Rental Manager solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Marketing, screening and placing a tenant all under one roof. It makes it so easy to deal with vacancies as well as keep an eye on upcoming rentals so I can start marketing early. Dealing with rent is great. Especially with roommates. It keeps them from having to ask each other for the rent money. An email goes out, they each pay their share and the money is sent to the landlord. Simple.

  ### 20. nice tool to manage rentals

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Management Consulting | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** December 20, 2017

**What do you like best about Apartments.com Rental Manager?**

the modern design of the interface, best fit new generation

**What do you dislike about Apartments.com Rental Manager?**

it's not so easy for my elderly tenants, but after walking them thru the first time, they are totally fine with it

**Recommendations to others considering Apartments.com Rental Manager:**

best of all it's free and full of features comparing to another tool I used

**What problems is Apartments.com Rental Manager solving and how is that benefiting you?**

all rental related - like rent application, collect fees and rent, the best part is it's free to landlord/property managers

  ### 21. A good management suite for both renters and landlords

**Rating:** 3.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Andrew B. | AdTech &amp; SEO Marketing Process Manager, Enterprise (> 1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** August 04, 2016

**What do you like best about Apartments.com Rental Manager?**

I like that the suite integrates the entire process of leasing, from tenant background screening to lease signing to rent payments. Some services are free (ie. the ones that should, like rent payment) and the background + credit screening are reasonably priced.

**What do you dislike about Apartments.com Rental Manager?**

It took nearly a week to get some of my background checks back. Cozy does NOT have a customer support phone #. I tracked down a phone number, despite them making it nearly impossible - lots of companies say they have no phone support, but they still do, it's just not published - but when I called their support #, it just says 'sorry, submit an email.' Their response time was not bad, though.

**Recommendations to others considering Apartments.com Rental Manager:**

Make sure you are self-sufficient when it comes to figuring out a new API, because one thing Cozy does not have is helpful customer  service. However, they are fairly quick with responding to email inquiries.

**What problems is Apartments.com Rental Manager solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Rather than having to use different companies/applications for the different steps of a renting, I am able to use one platform for everything. It speeds up the process and means better ROI on my properties. In addition, I have decreased my vacancy rate by 10%!
