The number one business problem I’m solving with Hotelkey is consistency in the department of avoiding invalid credit cards. Hotelkey has a method where they will check the card IN ADVANCE for you and then mark the card invalid accordingly. You won’t even have to check back on the extranet to see if the card was updated or needs to be canceled, Hotelkey will do that for you.

I like the ease of using the product. It is smooth and efficient. I also enjoy how the product is cloud based so there is no concern about hardware crash and losing data. I also like the manager’s app on my smartphone because I am able to see all the information I need in the palm of my hand. Closing rooms and updating the rates are all but a few taps away on the mobile phone. My FAVORITE part is the front desk is always able to (24/7) contact the support hotline and get help.

I’ll have to admit, in the beginning I was a bit skeptical because we could not get the basics started for the app. Let me clarify, we had a certain way of processing our check-ins and check-outs from our older PMS that we preferred to continue using our new one. Never the less, they were able to make some changes and improvements the way I wanted them and now its smooth sailing. Allow them to hear your opinions and suggestions and they will always do their best to make the changes needed.

Overall experience with HOTELKEY is like a family. When you call customer service or reach out to them they know you as with a name first and then HOTEL CODE. Whereas I have used Choice Advantage software and other softwares and they only recognize you with number or hotel code. HOTELKEY knows you by name and that’s the biggest part of customer service as able to recognize the people with real name and not number . Obviously the 24-7 customer service is excellent. Once you experience this software you will find other softwares as more disorganized and abundant with steps to guidelines and features.

The best part about this software is the End User interface. It is so easy to use and the software itself guides to step by step whenever you check in a guest. Also, I have admin access of it and it is also user friendly and easy to change rates and make changes remotely if not at property. They provide 24-7 customer service if you want to reach them. The best part of this software is that you can access via MOBILE APP.

There is always room for improvement if they allow full capabilities on the MOBILE APP. Also, the feature where customer can check in without the Live front Desk.

There is support but they are not always able to help such as the tax exempts. They have to escalate isssues if they can't help which sometimes takes a couple of days for them to get back to you.

The product is fairly easy to use if you have the knowledge, such as making reservations, finding past reservations or future reservations.

It saves everything instantly so if you make a mistake it shows. When there is updates, nothing is sent to us to explain the updates. There is a lot of functions that it doesn't let you do. ex: it won't let you make any changes for groups such as date change, rate change. Unable to remove or add taxes back on if guest has already checked out. Can not add any additional information to a reservation once checked out such as email address.

HotelKey PMS is great for multiple booking channel management at one place and it has been so easy to train our staff about its usage.

HotelKey PMS is by far with the best user interface among the PMS alternatives I have used so far. Its user friendly and full of explanations interface enabled us to spend less time to train our related staff to use the program and our staff uses the program without any mistake now.

Hotelkey is overall great platform, I have no objections to claim about Hotelkey.

Very positive, being able to be paperless is also very handy

Very ideal for a limited service/budget property, ipad made training very easy. Corresponding accounting reports for more than acceptable. Support staff is very engaging and can assist my staff with questions as needed.

There could be some more dynamic reports, such as daily report that can be run in excel showing rooms sold, revenue and occ.
