Free Apartment Building Software in Vietnam
Yes, Unitify has a Free plan for a chung cư: $0 per apartment per month, no card, no expiry, and no cap on users or buildings. It is a plan, not a trial. It has the core features and one news post a month for residents, and no AI features. Below: what "free" can mean in apartment building management software, what the Free plan includes, what it does not and how to start with one building.
What "free chung cư management software" can be
The same keyword can stand for very different offers. Check five points with each one:
- Plan or trial? A permanent plan has no end date. A trial expires, and only then does the charging start.
- Is there a cap on buildings or users? An operating unit with several buildings, or a management board (Ban quản trị) that wants to add an accountant and a technician, hits this cap early.
- Do residents get their own account? If only the management side uses the software, every resident question still arrives by phone or message.
- What does the free part include? Ask about resident requests, news posts and meter readings, not just the feature list in the price table.
- Is it accounting software? Accounting and communication with residents are two different tools. It helps to know which one you are looking for.
What Unitify's Free plan includes
The Free plan is $0 per apartment per month. On Free you get:
- No card and no expiry.
- Unlimited users and properties, as on every plan.
- The core features, including the resident app: sending requests and meter readings are on every plan.
- One news post for residents per month. That is the limit to plan around.
- No AI features.
Base ($1 per apartment per month) adds unlimited news posts, the AI request classifier, digital passes and booking of shared spaces. Pro ($3) includes everything in Base plus the AI concierge, AI reports, billing and invoicing included, API access and smart building integrations.
Billing, meaning the charges for each apartment, is an add-on: $0.5 per invoice, which you can switch on in any plan, Free included, and which is included in Pro. Video and intercom are $1 per apartment, only if you switch them on. AI features are billed per operation in AI credits on top of the plan price; Pro includes 500 credits a month, and you set the spending limit. All plans and prices are on the pricing page.
The daily work of a Ban quản trị and a ban quản lý
For a management board or an operating unit, the daily work is the charges for each apartment, notices and resident reports. In the app, residents see what they owe, send meter readings and open requests with a status; in the billing module, the management side sees the balance of each apartment. See also billing and invoices and resident voting.
What Free does not include, and what Unitify does not do
- Unitify is not accounting software. The building's books stay where they are today.
- It is not for managing rentals: Unitify is for apartment buildings and their owners.
- The resident app and the management panel are in English today; there is no Vietnamese interface yet. The texts you write (news posts, messages to residents) stay in Vietnamese.
- In-app surveys and polls record residents' views; they do not replace the building conference. Unitify has no video conferencing of its own.
- Payments: residents pay by bank transfer or by VietQR from their own banking app; this is not a Unitify integration.
- Free has one news post a month and no AI features; digital passes and booking of shared spaces start on Base.
How to start with one building
- Sign up on the Free plan. You need no card and no call.
- Add your first building.
- Send us the list of apartments and owners as an Excel file or an export from your current system. We move the data over and set everything up with you.
- Each resident adds their own apartment in the app, and the management side confirms each one.
If you are moving from another system, we complete the move within a week once you give us access. You do not have to move every building at once.

How do I start free with one building?
Sign up on the Free plan, with no card and no call, and add your first building. The list of apartments and owners moves over from an Excel file or an export of your current system. Residents then add their own apartment in the app, and the management side confirms each one.

Free is $0, Base is $1 and Pro is $3 per apartment per month, with unlimited users and properties on every plan. The pricing page lists what each plan includes.

No. Unitify is built for apartment buildings and their owners, not for landlords and tenants.
