Modern CapEx Management That Actually Integrates with Yardi

Why Teams Switch from Yardi CM
Common frustrations we hear from teams evaluating alternatives to Yardi CM.
Dated User Experience
Yardi Construction Manager's interface hasn't kept pace with modern software. Teams spend more time navigating the system than managing projects.
Complex Implementation
Getting Yardi CM fully configured requires significant IT involvement, consultant fees, and months of setup time.
Rigid Workflows
Yardi CM's workflows are hard to customize without expensive professional services. Adapting the system to your process is an ongoing project.
Siloed from Modern Tools
Despite being part of the Yardi ecosystem, Construction Manager doesn't always play well with the other tools your team uses day-to-day.

Banner vs Yardi CM: Common Questions
Answers to questions we frequently hear from teams considering switching.
Absolutely. Banner offers deep, bidirectional integration with Yardi. Your financial data syncs automatically between systems, so you keep Yardi as your system of record for property management while using Banner for a modern CapEx management experience.
Teams switch because Banner offers a dramatically better user experience, faster implementation, self-service configuration, and purpose-built draw management — all while maintaining seamless Yardi integration. You get the best of both worlds: Yardi's PMS capabilities and Banner's modern CapEx tools.
No. Banner syncs with Yardi bidirectionally but never modifies your Yardi data without explicit workflows you configure. Your Yardi instance remains your system of record, and Banner enhances it with modern CapEx management capabilities.
Our implementation team works alongside your Yardi admin to set up the integration, migrate historical project data, configure workflows, and train your team. Most teams are live within 4 weeks with zero disruption to ongoing projects.
