Homebase vs Dwelo

Which is a better fit for your community?

When you choose a proptech partner, you know that your choice will impact your community for years to come. While Homebase and Dwelo both offer a wide variety of smart building features, they have important differences.

Though Dwelo and Homebase are both smart building platforms, they have important differences.
  • Requires a hub to connect all smart devices in the unit to WiFi.
  • May be more expensive than other options on the market, with added costs for the hub and limited return on investment.
  • If a resident unplugs or breaks the hub, all smart devices in the unit will be out of commission, leading to significant downtime and lost revenue.
  • Limited evidence of substantial NOI increases without raising the rent.
  • The new and unproven WiFi solution may not be as reliable as other options on the market.
  • Limited in-unit services, like Walmart+ InHome.
  • Does not bundle package rooms with Access and WiFi, missing opportunities to streamline security.
  • Does not offer a Parking Access Control solution, reducing opportunities to consolidate operations. 
  • Does not support smart appliances, limiting the range of smart devices that can be offered in the unit.
  • Does not require a hub for smart devices in the unit to function.
  • Offers an affordable pricing model that makes high-quality smart technology accessible for most companies.
  • Smart devices in the unit connect directly to WiFi, removing an unnecessary middleman and reducing risk.
  • Proven to boost NOI without raising rent by giving properties ownership of their Managed WiFi revenue.
  • The WiFi solution is tested and proven to be high-speed and secure, with private networks in units and public networks in community spaces.
  • A marketplace of in-unit services, through partners like Walmart+ InHome, adds value for both residents and property managers.
  • Offers an integrated Package Room solution that is affordable and secure.
  • Offers a parking access control solution that is managed on the same platform as building access.
  • Supports smart appliances, like washing machines, along with smart thermostats, leak detectors, and light switches.
