Switching guide
Switching from Livly, now that Livly is part of Bilt.
Your resident app became a feature inside a bigger company's roadmap. ElevateOS is independent, bootstrapped and built for the building, with 50+ hardware integrations and a services marketplace Livly never had.
What stays. What changes.
The cutover keeps the systems and equipment that still work, then replaces the resident and staff experience around them.
What stays
your hardware, your PMS, your community programming.
What changes
one app that opens the door, a staff app, a staffed services marketplace, a revenue share, and a vendor that answers to you.
Plan for this
The one thing to settle before launch.
the keys. Tell us the lock brand; ElevateOS provisions credentials from the PMS so the switch doesn't touch the locks.
Four weeks, no forklift.
A typical cutover runs about a month and nothing goes dark. Your onboarding plan will be specific to your buildings; this is the shape.
Week 1, connect the PMS.
Residents and leases sync from Yardi, Entrata, RealPage, ResMan, AppFolio or Rent Manager. Residents notice nothing yet.
Week 2, connect the hardware.
Locks, intercoms, lockers and thermostats connect to ElevateOS. The old app works in parallel. No lock is reprogrammed.
Week 3, brand and configure.
The home screen, amenities, fees, services catalog and Resivents calendar are set up. Staff get Staff App and training.
Week 4, activate.
Invitation emails go out, residents activate and keys appear on phones. The old app sunsets after an overlap you choose.
You keep: the hardware, the PMS, the staff and the exported history. You change: one app, one login and one invoice.
Proof
A switch already proven in the field.
Optima Signature consolidated six resident portals into one.
Integrations
50+ integrations. Keep what's installed.
ElevateOS connects the locks, intercoms, access control, thermostats, package lockers, elevators and property management system your building already runs.
