There are no mapping programs to transfer data. All you get is what you can export/import via CSV file:(

We use Propertyware, have experience with Buildium and have played with Appfolio and RentManager.

Buildium is for smaller companies.

The other three are tied, the differences being how much automation & customization you want to do.

If you don't see yourself growing beyond 150 units, go with Buildium.

If you're not very techy and plan to grow over 150 units, we'd recommend Appfolio.

If you're techy and plan to grow over 150 units, we'd recommend Propertyware or RentManager.

Of course, schedule some demos, take GREAT notes and them make your decision.

FYI - there are MANY new options on the market, RentRedi, TenantCloud, Apartments.com, Hemlane, Rentec. The unknown is, will they survive?
