The Verdict
DoorLoop is built for small landlords and property managers, with a focus on rent-collection and tenant-screening. Paylocity targets mid size businesses and hr teams and leads with payroll and benefits-administration.
Paylocity uses custom enterprise pricing, while DoorLoop starts at $59/mo — a tangible advantage for teams with a fixed budget.
Neither tool offers a free plan, so factor the subscription cost into your decision from the start.
This is a genuinely close comparison. If you can, sign up for both free trials (where available) and run a one-week test with your actual team tasks before deciding.
