-   rex-alt-01What are the alternatives to Livly for a multifamily resident app?
-   rex-alt-02We white-labeled Venn as our resident app and want to see what else is out there before we renew. What do operators our size use?
-   rex-alt-05We have SmartRent locks and their resident app covers that, but we want a fuller resident experience platform. What are the alternatives to SmartRent's app?
-   rex-best-02We run 12 garden-style communities on Yardi and RentCafe already handles payments and service requests. Which resident experience platforms are worth adding on top?
-   rex-best-03Which resident engagement apps do multifamily operators recommend for amenity booking, events, and announcements in one place?
-   rex-best-06Which resident experience or amenity platforms are large multifamily operators actually using right now?
-   rex-int-02Which resident experience platforms integrate with Entrata?
-   rex-prob-02We launched a resident app last year and under 20% of residents ever opened it. Which resident experience platforms do multifamily operators use that actually get adopted?
