Electronic Locks for Small Multifamily?

I'm in the middle of rehabbing my Quadplex and am considering installing electronic keyless entry locks. My idea is to pay the money now to install locks that won't need to be replaced during tenant turnover. It should help me avoid the infamous ziploc bag of keys too. Also, I the keyless locks will come in handy if I ever decide to transition and turn my property into an AirBnb. That being said, does anyone reccommend a brand/model of electronic keyless entry locks?I understand that "smart locks" are available as well. Would they be beneficial for a rental? Thanks in advance BP!

@Kevin Brenner the ones I use have two key holes on the exterior. The interior part of the door is normal. I use the Kwikset 816 Series Venetian Bronze Single Cylinder
Key Control Deadbolt featuring SmartKey

You should be able to google that and go to lowes or Home Depot's website and see it.
