Sifely for mid-sized portfolios (5–20 listings)

Operators at 5–20 listings, past the solo-host stage but not yet running a full property management company.

Our verdict for mid-sized portfolios (5–20 listings)

Okay fit — consider alternatives

Automated codes scale well across 10–50 doors, but hardware reliability concerns and limited PMS integrations may pinch as your portfolio grows.

Why it fits you

  • Auto Booking Code scales code generation across multiple properties
  • Hardware-only pricing avoids compounding per-lock subscription costs

What might bite you

  • ~10% touchpad failure rate becomes a real operational burden across dozens of doors
  • WiFi gateway cost per property adds up at scale
  • Limited PMS integration list may not cover your platform

Best-for-you alternatives at this size

  • RemoteLock Great fit

    Sweet spot for RemoteLock — enough units to justify the subscription and automation pays for itself in time saved.

    From $6/listing • No free trial · Solid access control platform held back by hardware reliability and support concerns

  • Aqara Okay fit — consider alternatives

    Workable for 10–30 doors if you're willing to bridge Aqara to your PMS via a third-party lock middleware, but you'll be doing integration work Aqara doesn't ship natively.

    From $169.99 • No free trial · Affordable, ecosystem-friendly smart locks for hands-on small-portfolio hosts

  • August Home Okay fit — consider alternatives

    Workable for 6-25 units if door-modification restrictions are a real constraint, but shorter battery life adds up across a larger fleet.

    From $149.99 • No free trial · The right smart lock when you can't modify the door exterior
