Most license prices not listed PMS integrations Not published; ask which PMS marketplaces list it. Property types and portfolio fit Institutional Multifamily, Student Housing, Commercial Facilities Also known as Verkada Command Website [https://www.verkada.com/](https://www.verkada.com/) Verkada is a cloud-managed physical security company, and its multifamily offering puts cameras, access control, intercoms, visitor management, alarms, air quality sensors and a mailroom tool in one console called Command. For apartments the access pieces are Bluetooth unlock that turns a smartphone into a keycard, control of elevators and unit entries, and credential management automated with SCIM and access groups. The cameras store footage on the device, up to 365 days on some models, so there is no NVR or DVR to maintain. Verkada’s multifamily brochure also promises a dedicated A&E team that works with developers, consultants, builders and property managers on design, pricing, installation, integration, onboarding and training. In the [multifamily access control guide](/property-management-software/multifamily-access-control/) Verkada is the vendor that comes at the category from video security, and the facts panel below is rendered from our vendor database with a source and verification date on each entry. ## Who it fits The database tags institutional multifamily, student housing and commercial facilities. The student housing tag comes from Verkada’s residence hall page, which describes intercoms that double as card readers, smartphone and student ID unlock, guest logs screened against deny lists, wireless locks, and credentials issued at move-in and revoked at move-out. The customer stories on the multifamily brochure are real estate firms: Dal Realty, BNE Real Estate Group and DeMatei & Co. The buyer it fits is an owner whose security team wants cameras and doors on one system, who is comfortable with enterprise-style licensing, and who has the staff or the integrator to run it. A portfolio with offices, retail and apartments can manage all of them from one dashboard. One detail on the pricing page shows where the product started: Verkada supports corporate badges in Apple Wallet but says it cannot issue resident cards for multifamily units. It fits less well for an operator who wants resident credentials driven by the lease from the PMS, since Verkada names no PMS integration. ## Pricing Verkada publishes hardware list prices, which few vendors in this category do. A sample from its pricing page: the AD34 door reader is $349 and the AD64 with PIN is $599; the AC12 one-door controller is $899, the AC43 four-door controller $1,999 with a one-year licence included, and the AC62 sixteen-door controller $5,999; the TD33 video intercom is $1,699; mobile NFC credentials are $199 per 20 users per year. Indoor dome cameras start at $799. The controllers, the intercom and the cameras carry the note “additional license required” (the AC43 and mobile NFC prices include a one-year licence, and the door readers are listed as hardware only), and the licence prices themselves are not on the page. The total cost is hardware plus a licence per device for each year of the term, so ask for the licence price per controller, reader, intercom and camera at one, three, five and ten years. Verkada advertises predictable renewal costs and up to a ten-year warranty, so ask for both in the contract. Ask what stops working if a licence lapses. ## Integrations The database records no PMS integration and Verkada’s multifamily material names none. Its credential automation runs through SCIM and access groups, the standard way identity systems push users into other software. Verkada announced an integration with Schlage Control series wireless locks in August 2023, and its pricing page also lists its own AL54 wireless locks at $1,399. For a property team, the gap is the rent roll. Ask how a new resident gets into Command, whether by CSV import, SCIM from another system, or a connector to your PMS, and how a move-out revokes access at every door. ## Limitations and questions to ask Ask what happens to doors when the internet is down and how long cached credentials stay valid. Ask about resident privacy with cameras in common areas and who can view footage. Ask how residents without smartphones enter; Washington’s ESSB 5937 requires a non-app key on request from January 2027, and the encrypted and proximity card options on the pricing page answer part of that. Ask who installs and services the hardware in your market, and what the 24/7 support covers. Ask whether the intercom calls residents’ phones without a separate app subscription. ## Alternatives All the category’s vendors are on the [multifamily access control vendor list](/property-management-software/multifamily-access-control/vendors/).
