There is no shortage of apps claiming to be built for PG owners, but many are generic property tools with a PG label added on. Here is what to actually check before you pick one.
Features that actually matter
Before comparing pricing, check that the app genuinely covers:
- Bed-level occupancy, not just room-level
- Both cash and UPI rent collection
- Automatic rent reminders
- Tenant KYC storage attached to their profile
- Complaint logging with status tracking
- Expense tracking and month-end reports
- Support for more than one building, if you plan to grow
Questions to ask before you subscribe
Ask whether the app works properly on mobile, not just as a desktop tool with a phone-shaped wrapper. Ask how it handles a mix of cash and UPI, since most Indian PGs use both. And ask what happens to your data if you stop paying — you should be able to export your tenant and rent history at any time.
Why India-specific design matters
A PG owner app built for the US or Europe assumes card payments, long fixed leases, and none of the local realities that shape Indian PGs — KYC via Aadhaar, mid-month joining dates, cash-heavy collection, rupee amounts. Our PG management software was built specifically around these, rather than adapted from a generic property tool.
