What it does

It sells tiered versions of its core product, from basic bookkeeping up to plans with customer-relationship tools and fuller data access. It also sells add-on services such as electronic payments, tenant screening and risk checks. Customers are property managers, landlords, residents and the vendors who service buildings. It is based in Santa Barbara, California.
Where it sits in the stack

Who it is priced against
Closelooknet has not assigned it a peer group; the comparison the market draws is with other property-management software providers such as RealPage and Yardi Systems.
Why Closelooknet tracks it
AppFolio holds no index seat and carries no Closelooknet score yet; the diary does not currently quote it in any edition.
What the diary watches
