Ploxit vs Landlord Vision: Which Delivers RRA 2025 Compliance?
Landlord Vision handles accounting well, but Ploxit specialises in Renters' Rights Act compliance with official GOV.UK PDFs and tribunal-ready audit logs.
18 December 2025 · 5 min read · Ploxit Team
The Renters' Rights Act 2025 introduces new obligations for landlords, including the requirement to provide tenants with the official GOV.UK Information Sheet 2026. With the 31 May 2026 deadline approaching, many landlords are evaluating their software options.
Landlord Vision is an established property management platform that excels at accounting, tax reporting, and general property administration. However, when it comes to the specific compliance requirements of the Renters' Rights Act, you need a tool purpose-built for the job.
Ploxit is a modern SaaS platform designed specifically to help landlords comply with the Information Sheet delivery requirement whilst maintaining tribunal-ready evidence of compliance.
What Landlord Vision does well
Landlord Vision has served UK landlords for over a decade as a comprehensive property management solution. Their strengths include:
- Established accounting features for rental income, expenses, and tax reporting
- Comprehensive property management covering maintenance, inspections, and tenant records
- Integration capabilities with banking and accounting systems
- Mature platform with extensive property administration tools
For landlords who need a full-featured property management suite, Landlord Vision offers solid functionality in their core domain of accounts and administration.
The compliance gap
However, when it comes to the specific requirements of the Renters' Rights Act 2025, general property management platforms face significant limitations:
- Document integrity: No guarantee that the Information Sheet PDF remains unaltered from the official GOV.UK version
- Audit trail weaknesses: Limited tracking of whether tenants actually opened and acknowledged the document
- Tribunal preparation: Lack of specialised export functions for compliance evidence
- Setup complexity: General platforms often require extensive configuration for new compliance requirements
"The wrong tool isn't necessarily a bad tool – it's just not designed for the specific job at hand."

Choosing the right tool for the job
The decision ultimately depends on what you need:
Choose Landlord Vision if:
- You need comprehensive property management and accounting
- You're willing to manage RRA 2025 compliance manually or with basic tools

Choose Ploxit if:
- You need bulletproof compliance with the Information Sheet requirement
- You want tribunal-ready evidence without manual documentation

Why modern SaaS matters for 2026 compliance
The Renters' Rights Act 2025 represents a new era of landlord obligations with potentially significant penalties for non-compliance. Legacy property management platforms, whilst excellent in their original domain, weren't designed with these forensic compliance requirements in mind.
Ploxit represents a new generation of compliance-first tools: purpose-built for the regulatory environment landlords face today, with the technical precision needed to withstand tribunal scrutiny.
Frequently asked questions
Can I use both Landlord Vision and Ploxit together?
Absolutely. Many landlords use Landlord Vision for accounts and property management whilst using Ploxit specifically for Information Sheet compliance. Each tool excels in its domain, and there's no technical conflict between using both.
Does Ploxit replace property management software?
No. Ploxit is a specialist compliance tool focused solely on delivering the official GOV.UK Information Sheet with tribunal-ready audit trails. You'll still need separate solutions for accounts, maintenance tracking, and general property administration.
How quickly can I set up Ploxit compared to configuring Landlord Vision for compliance?
Ploxit is designed for immediate compliance use – from signup to sending your first Information Sheet typically takes under 2 minutes. Configuring general property management platforms for new compliance requirements usually involves much more extensive setup.
Will Ploxit's audit trail actually help in a tribunal?
Ploxit's audit trail is specifically designed for tribunal presentation, with PDF exports that document the complete chain from delivery through acknowledgement. Whilst we can't guarantee outcomes (every case is different), the evidence format is designed to support your compliance arguments effectively.
What happens to my compliance records if I cancel?
Ploxit provides export functionality so you can download your complete compliance records before cancellation. Given the 6-year default retention period, most customers maintain their subscription throughout this period for ongoing access to tribunal-ready exports.
Does Ploxit give legal advice about compliance?
No. Ploxit provides the technical infrastructure to deliver official documents with comprehensive audit trails, but doesn't offer legal advice. For specific legal guidance on your obligations under the Renters' Rights Act 2025, consult a qualified legal professional.
