Last year, our company transitioned from MRI to Yardi Voyager, and honestly, the process would have been a nightmare without the help of Yardi consulting services .

We were dealing with 15 properties across three states, each with unique lease structures and reporting needs. Initially, we thought our internal IT team could handle the migration, but after just two weeks, it was clear we needed help.

The consultants we hired specialized in Yardi data migration, setup, and configuration. They helped map our data, clean up legacy formats, and ensure a smooth import into the new system. What impressed me most was their understanding of real-world property workflows—not just the technical side. They customized our settings, trained our staff, and created a phased rollout plan that minimized downtime.

One thing I'd advise: budget for post-migration support. Even after we went live, we ran into things like user access errors, report discrepancies, and integration lags. Thankfully, the Yardi consulting services team stuck around for 90 days to help us iron out the issues.

If you're considering a Yardi migration, don't go it alone. The upfront cost of consulting is far less than the cost of rework or downtime.
