“Buildium is the industry standard.”
Buildium is built for property management companies juggling rentals and HOAs. If you're a standalone gated community, you're paying for rental features you don't need and missing gate features you do. GateKeeper was built specifically for communities like yours — with gate access, QR guest passes, and RFID vehicle tracking included — at a fraction of the cost.
