Ayillo Tenant Screening vs FrontLobby

Ayillo Tenant Screening is a screening workflow within property-management software for landlords and property managers. Before applications open, each property must publish screening criteria that include a credit floor, income multiple and criminal-history policy. Checks can cover credit reports and scores, eviction and civil-judgment history, criminal history where allowed, income verification and prior landlord references. Ayillo says criminal screening follows jurisdictional rules, including ban-the-box requirements. If a report contributes to a denial, the system prepares an adverse-action notice naming the screening company and explaining the applicant's dispute rights. The landlord or property manager who ran the check can see the underlying report; applicants receive a summary decision and, if adverse, the notice. Screening connects with applications, lease generation, e-signatures and renewals. The Core workspace costs $49 a month, billed monthly per workspace, and includes the first 5 units. New professional workspaces receive a 30-day free trial, which requires a payment card to start.

FrontLobby provides landlords and property managers with tenant screening, rent reporting, and debt reporting tools. Its screening combines credit data, background information, and verified Tenant Records from Landlord Credit Bureau; the US screening page identifies TransUnion as the credit screening provider. Most screening reports are said to be available within five minutes, though package choice and identity verification or consent steps can affect timing. Landlords submit applicant information and obtain required consent before reviewing results online. Screening can be paid for by the landlord or applicant, and does not require a subscription. The free Basic Membership includes property and lease management, Tenant Records, tools and resources, marketplace access, and pay-as-you-go screening and debt reporting. One-time screening options are listed from $14.99 to $39.99, while debt reporting is listed at $99.99 or $199.99 per once. Premium Membership costs $19.92 per year and includes rent reporting for 20 leases, discounts on screening and debt reporting, and one-on-one setup and support.
