Pivott is a very helpful and user-friendly tool for managing contracts. It makes it easy to keep track of contract details, important deadlines, and upcoming expirations all in one place — and to monitor them proactively so renewals and expiration dates don't get missed.
Contract Management ComparisonContractWorks was built for legal teams.
ContractWorks was built for legal teams.
Pivott was built for property managers.
ContractWorks handles general contract storage and alerts well. But it lacks property management (PMS) integrations and property-level organization, leaving multifamily teams to bridge the gap manually.

Where Pivott Wins
Organized by property
Pivott structures every contract around properties from day one, so leases and vendor agreements stay tied to the right asset — no manual folder setup.
Native PMS integrations
Pivott connects to Yardi, AppFolio, Entrata, and MRI. ContractWorks has none, so teams reconcile contract data with their PMS by hand.
Portfolio compliance tracking
Pivott tracks insurance, contract terms, and renewal deadlines by property — not generic alerts — so nothing slips across a large portfolio.
What multifamily teams say
Pivott has been incredibly user-friendly, especially with regard to the initial setup. Being able to drag and drop all existing contracts saved me hours. Furthermore, live customer support has been very nice.
