It is a good software. Very Comprehensive
Search from the Internet
PROSIt Integrates with the Channel Manager for seamless bookings. It has a Calender availability and Rooms Plan Availability which allows to check for Status
CONSI need to ADD In Booking Channel Type (e.g. AGODA, or Expedia or Booking.com) in the Guest Registration Card. I also need to place the Stay dates and the Room number on the Top lines of the Guest Registration Cards, but I cannot do so easily. Please allow for easier Drafting software for such cards. I also need the Housekeeping Report to not have so tiny Fonts. The Font versus empty space ratio should be bigger, because my Housekeepers are senior folk, and the current FONT sizes make it difficult to put the Report on 1 Page (40 rooms only), and even on 2 pages, the Text is much smaller compared to the empty spaces. Please help to allow more options in Text sizes

Best Property Management System that I have used.
Despite the cons I have listed, I really like CLOCK. It has bookmarks for easy access to functions. I love the maintenance feature that allows us to see which rooms have issues and what they are. I don't use the rate features because we use Room Price Genie, so I cannot comment on it.
PROSReliability! It rarely has a problem and when it does they fix it quickly. I have used several other PMS programs and they often crashed and had bugs that were not fixed for weeks. Their customer support team is very responsive and helpful. AND the TO DO LIST. It is a huge help not just with the reservations but other things we do in the office. We use it all the time!
CONSSome of the functions require more clicks than is optimal. I wish that charging to saved credit cards for companies were streamlined. We charge for the fist night at time of booking and it is annoying that CLOCK only tells us the average price of one night instead of the actual price of the first night. CLOCK offers several color flags for reservations, which is helpful, but I wish it allowed for multiple color flags like a different PMS that I have used. It could be accomplished by adding a header and a footer stripe to reservations. And it would be very helpful to be able to place several rooms down at once.
Reasons for switching to Clock PMS
we were planning on switching because Rezovations (Rezo) was horrible! It had so many bugs and was unreliable. While we were testing replacements, Rezo announced that they were selling out to a competitor and being absorbed.

Looks pretty good, but slow to update. Good customer service, when you can reach them
I gave it a trial and it looked promising, until I needed to add extra children at a reduced rate. Some of my room hold 6 people, so they wanted me to set up a rate type for each scenario. ie. 2 adults, 1 child, 2 adults, 2 kids, 2 adults 3 kids, 2 adults 4 kids, 3 adults 1 child, 3 adults 2 children...etc. you get the picture. Very cumbersome, then the for each season there was no default, so I had to spend 45 minutes per season updating the extended rates. They use Amazon servers so they say, so uptime and response time should be fairly good, but I found it a bit slow. Might be my net speed tho'. Good price . Bulgarian product so everyone has a strong accent. Support is Europe based so you have to account for the time difference.
Vendor Response
Thank you for your feedback! We admit that Clock PMS was initially developed for traditional high-category hotels rather than for shared-type accommodation properties. Though our rate management system already provides a simple and handy solution that would have solved your problems - the derived rates, based on feedback from you and a few other customers, we are currently working on the closer adaptation of the Clock PMS's functionality to the needs of properties that offer such type of accommodation. We kindly invite you to stay in touch so that we can keep you informed on the new features. Our support team is indeed based in Bulgaria, an emerging IT market chosen for outsourcing by companies like HP or IBM and with good IT specialists that, as you noted, provide excellent service. Finally, as the American market is a top priority for us, we gladly inform you that we have just introduced our new support hours: 2am - 9pm EST and a new North American telephone number.

With Clock PMS Suite, so much has changed
We had up to 8 years ago been using pen and paper. The business was a lot smaller back then. As the business grew busier, we needed a system that comprised a channel manager and a PMS. We wanted to try to eliminate most of the human error involved in data input of the large volumes of bookings we were now getting. Another aspect we wanted was the increased data protection which has even improved in Clock further since we signed up.
PROSSo much has changed! We've saved at least the hours of 1 full time member of staff just by removing most of the manual data entry involved in the day-to-day bookings, alterations and cancellations. We barely ever get a double booking now. Another key reason why we chose Clock was the Guest mailer. We didnt see such a flexible and well-made tool for automatically mailing guests in any of the other systems we looked at.
CONSA multi room availability search function would be nice too, so for instance you can put in 9 people and the system will pick out multiple rooms for them.

As operations are expanding, using a pen and paper is no longer an option
We survived on pen and paper management for a few years. As operations expanded, using a physical pen and paper based system (while affordable) was getting too slow, prone to errors and could not serve our needs. Clock has streamlined our processes and workflows; not to mention finally having a Property Management System that integrated the different departments. Also, it finally let us integrate our reservations systems and allow us a vastly expanded market via online bookings.
PROSClock PMS won our trust with its: a) Functionality - It has everything we need without the excess bloat b) Lightweight/Compatibility/Mobility - It can run on any device (no matter the age of the device) which is extremely useful, as our property sprawls over several hectares. It even allows us to check and edit while mobile! c) Simplicity - Training our staff, even those with no prior experience with a PMS, has been easy!
CONSAs an advice: An improved UI and switching between cross-function menus will be a great addition to the platform.

Clock PMS allows us to take advantage of the latest hospitality technology. Easy & friendly setup.
We wanted a web based solution because it can be accessed easily from anywhere. The Clock PMS has a friendly interface and it can be used on mobile devices. A fully integrated channel manager, automated guest emails, API for connection to external systems, F&B POS.
CONSClock PMS works great on any device, saving time and improving customer satisfaction. The team behind are open to ideas for improving the system. There are regular updates and improving the system and usability. Just one thing - it could be an easier process for a suggestion for improvement.

Clock PMS is easy to use and straightforward
Clock PMS is our first property management system. It is really very easy to use and straightforward.
PROSClock PMS has all the necessary integrations, including with the webpage, so that we can manage the daily running of the Inn quickly and efficiently. The interface is simple, and the customer support is great, always available to help implement the program and customize it to our unique situation.
CONSJust as a suggestion - summary invoices, so that they can be sent to customers instead of the multipage detailed ones.

Good PMS platform and easy to use
The platform is a nice and clean, easy to use the software. It allows you to effectively manage your hotel in all areas and is very effective in the data it provides.
CONSThe reporting is a little less, the PMS has many data points and the reporting can be more advanced. At the moment they work on a voting function but i think they could really benefit from thinking out of the box and just adding more reports.

Clock PMS is awesome
Having long relied on a pen and paper, we needed a cloud-based system that can be accessed from everywhere.
PROSWhat I like the most about Clock PMS are the Guest Service portal options and the wide range of add-on features. The biggest change for us came with the options for the online guest check-in and checkout which was accepted by our guests very well.
CONSI would appreciate it very much if the accounting functionalities of Clock PMS are further simplified.

Adoption of Clock Software
We are an independent collection of 4 hotels, who identified a need to replace a legacy PMS. After asking for RFP submissions from a list of hotel software providers, Clock was chosen as a partner who were willing to work with us in getting the software to work for our business needs. These were our system requirements: Easy to use software Allow central management of guest/company profiles Allow yield management of room rates/packages Integrated channel manager Transparent software pricing Interfaces to 3rd party systems Integrated web booking engine The adoption of this cloud based software, requiring only an internet browser and connection, eased the pressure on our IT budget. The management of Clock have proven their commitment to the partnership in working closely with us and addressing our concerns by understanding several software enhancements and integrating the booking engine into our website. The project was further escalated with the adoption of their POS and other modules into our hotels. The backup and support from them has been invaluable and we wish to continue in working with them in the further enhancement and development of the software.
