What PointCentral does

PointCentral is the leading enterprise smart property automation platform for residential property managers. It’s a subsidiary of Alarm.com — one of the largest smart home and security platforms in the world — and brings that infrastructure specifically to rental property management at scale.

The platform combines hardware (hub, smart lock, thermostat) with software that manages every aspect of property access and automation from a single app — for property managers and for residents. Integrates with major property management systems including Yardi, RealPage and others.

Who it’s for: property management companies, multifamily owners, short-term rental operators with 10+ units, and build-to-rent portfolio investors. Not designed for individual self-managing owners with 1–2 properties.
