Rental portal to collect rent2.

We've found it has superior reporting features, integration features, and is overall more efficient to work within than other REI-specific software.And, our clients who self-manage use a PM software to handle all property-specific tasks (tenant portal, requests, rent payments, etc etc).

We use Streamline which is a legacy provider but it is cumbersome and designed for larger scale PM operations (trust accounting, owner portals, etc etc).Just a few integrations we use: Lynx (locks), BookingPal (channel manager), EZCare (HK/Maint Ops), RevMax (Pricing) - There are more, thats off the top of my head.
