  • In February, Yardi launched a new data centre in Dubai to meet the data security and infrastructure needs of a growing client base in the Middle East.
  • Yardi aided displaced Fort McMurray fire evacuees. Mobilizing teams in four different time zones, Yardi created a centralized housing registry connecting local landlords and residents in need of housing.

  • Yardi acquired Proliphix, a leading provider of energy control solutions. We welcomed its clients and staff to the Yardi family!
  • Gordon Morrell was named Executive of the Year at the South Coast Business & Technology Awards. “I’m honored to receive this award, but it really is not for me,” Morrell said. “It is for the entire global team at Yardi. The reason for our success is the exceptional collaboration of everyone at the company, rather than the efforts of one individual.”

  • Yardi welcomed two new Marketing Geniuses. Meet Mia Wentworth, Marketing Director at Monarch Investment & Management Group and Kelley Shannon, Vice President of Consumer Marketing at The Bozzuto Group.
  • In November, Yardi released Bill Pay, a new tool that automates vendor payments and saves clients time, reduces errors and decreases paper use.
  • Forbes named Yardi Systems to the 2016 Best 100 Cloud Companies List. “We’re honored that Forbes chose to recognize our efforts to provide industry-leading cloud solutions for our clients,” said Anant Yardi. “This is a tremendous acknowledgement of the work we have done over the last decade to transition our products and clients to the cloud.”
  • National Apartment Association recognized Anant Yardi with a Lifetime Achievement Award. The Award acknowledged Mr. Yardi’s nearly 40 years of work supporting the apartment industry.

It has been a pleasure to work with our clients and employees the past year. We look forward to our continued partnership and to your success in 2017.
