Yardi runs the lease, but the construction half is missing.
Yardi Voyager is the dominant real-estate ERP for developers and institutional owners. Leases, tenants, AR / AP, fund accounting — the "own and operate" side is mature. But Yardi treats construction as an external feed: pay apps come in by email, vendor compliance lives in a spreadsheet, and the GC's record is something you copy from. AOS fills the construction half on the same record as your portfolio.
Yardi Voyager runs at the majority of mid-to-large U.S. developers, REITs, and institutional owners. Breeze is the lighter SKU for smaller portfolios.
What Yardi does well.
- Lease administration, tenant ledgers, and fund accounting — deep and battle-tested.
- Investor reporting and waterfall calculations native to the platform.
- Integration ecosystem for property management adjacent tools (utility, insurance, valuation).
What AOS does that Yardi doesn't.
- Construction-side record: pay app review with two-click approval, vendor compliance auto-gated, RFI / CO / drawings visible to your asset team.
- The GC and the sub fill the same row that your Yardi pay-app workflow reads from — not an email attachment.
- Building-level capex / opex split, warranty timelines, latent-defect SLAs — on the same record as the construction draws.
- Subcontractor compliance (lien waivers across 51 jurisdictions, COIs, certs) gated before pay-app approval. Yardi treats this as an external feed.
Honest call.
Stay on Yardi if…
- …you have a stabilized portfolio with minimal active construction and Yardi handles 95% of your needs.
- …your construction pipeline is small enough that a spreadsheet + email is still acceptable.
Switch to AOS if…
- …you're building as much as you own — you need the construction record to live where the asset record does.
- …your asset team gets pay apps as PDF email attachments and you want a real workflow.
- …you want to see schedule slip, FAC overrun, and CO-aging across every active project the day they happen, not three Fridays later.
