Rentalize vs Fixflo

Rentalize covers the same repairs workflow inside one platform that also holds the tenancy, the client account and the Irish housing schemes. One is a specialist tool, the other is the system of record.

FAQ
Common questions
For agents who want repairs inside their management system, yes. Fixflo is a specialist repairs and maintenance product that sits alongside a property management system; it does not hold tenancies, collect rent or run client accounting. Rentalize covers repairs, the tenancy, rent collection and client money to SI 199 in one record. If you only want a repairs front door and your management system is already settled, Fixflo remains a strong and very widely used choice.
Most customers replace it, because the repairs workflow is already part of Rentalize and running two systems means duplicate property and tenant records. Rentalize handles tenant reported issues from the tenant portal and mobile apps, triages them, raises works orders to your contractor register, tracks planned maintenance and compliance certificates, and posts contractor invoices to the right ledger.
Fixflo publishes a GBP 75 per month software fee with a 50 property minimum and four tiers (Basic, Essentials, Pro and Manager) on unlimited users, with the actual per property price quoted on request, the Contractor Marketplace from GBP 0.30 per unit per month and professional services from GBP 300 plus VAT. Rentalize publishes its plans and a free pricing calculator, and repairs are included rather than charged as a separate product, so the fair comparison is Fixflo plus your existing management system against Rentalize alone.
No. Fixflo is UK led and has no support for HAP, RAS, Cost Rental, Part V or council differential rent, and it does not file with the RTB. Those are native to Rentalize, which is why Irish councils and Approved Housing Bodies use it as the system of record.
Fixflo has real depth in planned preventative maintenance and Fire Risk Assessment processing, and its Contractor Marketplace is genuinely useful for sourcing trades at volume. Rentalize covers planned maintenance, certificate expiry, Awaab's Law hazard clocks and Decent Homes audits, and connects them to the tenancy and the money. For a pure block or CAFM portfolio with no lettings or client accounting need, Fixflo is the more focused fit.
Yes. Rentalize migrates properties, tenancies, contractors, open works orders and repair history, and will map your Fixflo issue categories to the Rentalize triage tree so reporting stays continuous. Ask for a migration scope and timeline.
