History

Yardi Systems was founded by IIT Delhi alumnus, Anant Yardi[2] [3] in Santa Barbara, California.[4] In 2010, Yardi Systems launched Yardi CRM, as part of the company's suite of property management software and integrated it with its own product, Yardi Voyager, a platform designed for real estate management.[5] The year also marked the acquisition of online real estate database, PropertyShark.[6] [7]

By 2017, Yardi Systems would expand to 35 offices worldwide, keeping its headquarters in the United States.[8]

In 2021, Yardi Systems acquired and redesigned listing service 42Floors.com adding it to its marketplace network, CommercialEdge.[9] The year also marked the launch of a new product suite, Yardi Corom, which offers lease management, occupancy tracking and desk hoteling for flexible workplaces.[10]

In 2022, Yardi Systems launched RentCafe CRM IQ, which enabled Yardi clients to manage prospects, applicants and residents through the leasing process.[11] Yardi Systems also partnered with Canadian digital insurance provider, APOLLO Insurance, to offer tenant insurance embedded into Yardi's software for Canadian tenants.[12]

In 2024, following a partnership between Yardi Systems and Xfinity Communities, Xfinity Wi-Fi became available to users of Yardi product, RentCafe.[13] The same year, Yardi Systems would acquire a 60% equity stake in WeWork.[14] [15] [16] [17] [18]
