Professional operators and small-to-mid property management companies running 20–100 listings, typically with dedicated staff and systems.
Our verdict for large portfolios (20–100 listings)
Consider alternatives
Large portfolios that want native PMS-driven thermostat orchestration won't find a documented direct path — ecobee's enterprise focus is multifamily and commercial buildings.
What might bite you
- Direct developer API onboarding closed in March 2024
- SmartBuildings is positioned for multifamily and commercial buildings rather than scattered STR portfolios
- No published volume break on hardware MSRP

- Wyze Consider alternatives
At 20+ listings you'll want enterprise-grade smart-lock and monitoring vendors with APIs and SLAs — Wyze has neither.
