iApartments Self-Guided Tours vs Latch Viewing Management

iApartments Self-Guided Tours helps multifamily and student-housing properties arrange visits that prospective residents can take on their own schedules. Leasing teams select available units and schedule them for prospects, then manage visits from a customized dashboard. The described flow covers scheduling, identity verification, temporary access, guided touring, and follow-up; one prospect flow does not require an app download. Identity checks require a valid government ID and a biometric selfie scan. Tour schedules, prospect profiles, and desired lease terms synchronize with a central leasing platform and CRM. Listed property-management integrations include Yardi, Entrata, Resman, RealPage, RentCafe, and Union. ButterflyMX supports virtual keys, building entry, and elevator controls; Avigilon/Openpath are also listed as access integrations. The product is available on Android, iOS, and the web. iApartments says its infrastructure is hosted on Amazon Web Services, is SOC 2 Type II compliant, and undergoes regular third-party penetration testing. The product page directs prospective customers to schedule a demo and does not state a price.

Latch Viewing Management is a web workflow for scheduling property viewings, sending reminders, and recording outcomes. Applicants choose a slot through a shared booking flow, with availability synchronizing in real time with Google or Outlook calendars. Latch describes automated reminders 24 and two hours before a viewing, with confirmations sent by email and SMS. Teams can collect structured feedback and track outcomes such as attended, no-show, applied, and declined. Reporting covers booked, attended, and applied rates by property, as well as pipeline activity across properties. Viewings can be assigned to team members or external agents, and applicant communications can be logged on a timeline. Latch says viewing data is encrypted at rest and in transit, with role-based access, consent-aware communication history, and an audit trail. Basic is free forever and includes three leases, 20 documents, five standard reports monthly, and one user. Pro is £20 per month with eight leases included and £1 per extra lease. The site's App Store and Google Play offerings are labeled coming soon.
