Pricing is way better and it offers a lot more features with super easy to use interface.

Peace of Mind at Dragonhead Retreat

Just wish I had found OwnerRez in my first year of having vacation rentals. Their common sense, timely tools and communiques to inquiries, booked guests, etc means I can tend to my other work, home, family... life.

PROS

I tried other products, wasting time, energy & $. Finding OwnerRez was such a relief. I can tell it was designed & implemented by professionals who had "been there/done that" as it is so logical. The sample tools, policies, communiques, etc were well thought out and easy to adjust to my use.

CONS

Not yet. I ask for help when I can't figure something out and OR reps reply quickly. They follow-up, to ensure any issue is ironed out.

Reason for choosing OwnerRez

I needed a product designed by mission-driven vacation rental owners. I joined OwerRez Facebook groups and learned a lot from them, prior to deciding on OwnerRez. Best decision I ever made.

Reasons for switching to OwnerRez

The worst experience ever. It was impossible to get any assistance in a timely manner. Their policy was to reply, via email, within 48 hours. I'd ask for help, in writing on Saturday AM and Lodgify would reply by email on Tuesday, sending me to the Encyclopedio of Logdify. FINALLY, in a chat I mentioned I had 2 one minute question, would someone call me. The rep said they NEVER call as they dont even have a phone to call out. Worse than useless. Waste of time, energy and over priced.

Difficult onboarding

Not good. It appears to be a powerful system but zero training and support make it a nightmare. I had to plead for help for a 30 minute call because of problems. Both sessions lasted longer because it even took staff that long to help with 1 or 2 things, Not getting to all my questions. The person was helpful but this stuff takes time to implement. I started w 2 houses and have 2 more. One would think they would want to make sure i have a good experience to get more sales.

PROS

Still new but using OR to manage multiple properties in 1 platform

CONS

Onboarding is pretty much non existent. Would have eliminated 5 double bookings and days of waiting for answers if only they took 1 or 2 30 minute sessions for a call. Most of time, you email with a problem and wait. Sometimes for 24 hours before getting a response.

Amazing Property Management Software for Short Term Rentals- It's Useful Even if You Only Have 1 STR

My overall experience with Ownerrez has been phenomenal. Even though it was a steep learning curve, the customer support, the help articles, and the help videos have been more than supportive in ensuring I had a smooth onboarding process. The features & integrations OR provides (security deposit, rental agreement, etc.) really help me to start my Airbnb last year.

PROS

I enjoy the fact that ownerrez helps me manage my Airbnb listing like a business and helps me to automate things I didn't realize could be automated. Even though Airbnb does have similar features, I love how OR allows me to pivot onto other platforms and with direct bookings if needed.

CONS

I don't like the fact that there isn't an app to download from the app store. I also wish there was more customization features on the rental agreement in terms of text boxes that are mandatory. For example, I wish I could have a separate textbox that the requires the name for each guest rather than typing a bunch of names in 1 textbox

Unprecedented Efficiency with OwnerRez Property Management Software

I can't help but gush about the incredible functionality and effectiveness of the OwnerRez Property Management software. As an avid user, I have found the software to be extremely user-friendly and easy to set up, even for those who may not be very tech-savvy. OwnerRez truly simplifies property management by automating and streamlining a vast array of necessary tasks, making it a one-stop solution for all property management needs.What truly sets OwnerRez apart from its competitors is the company's constant drive to improve. They have displayed an unwavering commitment to listening to user feedback and continually refining the software based on their customer's needs and preferences. On multiple occasions, they've reached out to me, offering ways to enhance my user experience or to adjust settings to fit my unique needs better.The technical support offered by OwnerRez is exceptional. Every time there's been an issue or concern, their team has responded promptly, helping me resolve the problem with minimal downtime. This attentiveness and dedication to client satisfaction truly speak volumes about their commitment to their customers.However, what truly solidifies my trust in OwnerRez is their stellar communication and transparency. A prime example of this was the unfortunate program crash that occurred during the recent Christmas/New Year holiday. Despite the challenging circumstances, OwnerRez kept users up-to-date with the situation, reassured us of their efforts, and

PROS

User-Friendly: The OwnerRez software is extremely user-friendly and straightforward to set up, making it accessible to all, regardless of their technological know-how.Continual Improvements: OwnerRez's commitment to regular updates and enhancements based on user feedback ensures that the software stays relevant and continues to meet the needs of its users effectively.Proactive Communication: They are proactive in reaching out to users with suggestions for improvement or adjustments, demonstrating a genuine interest in providing a better user experience.

CONS

Limited Color Coding: One drawback of OwnerRez is the limited options for color-coding properties. For users managing multiple properties, enhanced color segmentation could provide a more intuitive and efficient visual organization system.Pricing: Over time, the pricing model for OwnerRez has seen an increase, which may be a deterrent for some users. Despite the extensive functionality and quality service it offers, the increased cost may be a concern for those operating within a tighter budget.

Reason for choosing OwnerRez

Comprehensive Functionality: OwnerRez offers an exhaustive suite of property management tools that address all aspects of managing vacation rentals, which I found lacking in other software on the market.

Reasons for switching to OwnerRez

I decided to switch because, despite escalating prices, the software was not evolving to accommodate the expanding needs of my burgeoning business.

Happy customer

OwnerRez is amazing! I own a small rental and I have extra challenges due to living with a disability, and I have always received the most helpful support. A lot of other companies would place me on a low tier for support due to the volume of our business. But I have a high standard for my business, no matter how small (we’re rated the Most Hospitable Host in our province), and they’ve helped me keep it up. They have a ton of support articles, always keep us in the loop with their planned updates, listen to all our ideas for future development, and they make us feel like part of the team. I rave about them all the time to my fellow hosts.

PROS

A loooong list of pros. - Their system is thorough & detailed (do give yourself time for the learning curve) - Everything can be customized and even overridden for specific bookings if you want- Reliable, top of the line API connections with pretty much any booking platform- Couldn’t have been easier to add their widget to my wordpress site for direct bookings- Easy to share the calendar with my cleaners & manage booking windows- Best customer service. Seriously.

CONS

My cons list gets smaller every month with every update OwnerRez puts out. But here are the challenging parts of the software at this point in time:- Messaging is a bit tricky to master, as system messages & custom templates are in different sections. No ability to customize message templates ahead of time for individual guests, so if I want to add a personal note to a scheduled message I have to set myself an alarm to do it manually right before it’s scheduled. - No ability to create single-use discount codesYou do have to pay close attention when setting things up, as there are a LOT of settings and it’s easy to get one wrong. But this isn’t a con, just a heads up. A huge part of OwnerRez’s magic is how much customization they can handle.

Reason for choosing OwnerRez

Competitive & customizable price based on what add-ons I wanted. Reputation of excellence around bookings - no double booking with multiple booking platforms. Customer service reputation.

Robust system with amazing support

I recommend OwnerRez to every property manager I meet. Enough said.

PROS

It covers everything I need it to do. They're always adding more features. Customer service is timely and knowledgable.

CONS

Because it's so robust, it can be overwhelming to get started. But their videos, and more importantly, customer service is second to none. A rep spent hours with me getting things set up in the beginning, and I will never forget how much I appreciated and valued that help.

Best business decision we have made so far: choose OwnerRez

The best decision we have made in getting our company to a higher level of automation.

PROS

Customer service is exceptional. When we email a question, we get a comprehensive reply within 2-3 hours, always with screenshots and very clear guidance on what to do in the system. The system was very easy to set up, because there are recorded short videos that explain everything. The UI is extremely intuitive and the polar opposite of the vendor we pulled the plug on.

CONS

The reason we felt we owe OR this review is because there is nothing they could have done better. Anyone looking for property management or vacation rental software should know about OR.

Reason for choosing OwnerRez

We were 4 weeks into implementing Lodgify when we decided to pull the plug. OwnerRez allows us to text guests, Lodgify does not have that capability.

Reasons for switching to OwnerRez

Lodgify is HQd in Barcelona - customer service is extremely slow and basically unreachable. Trying to set up the system proved impossible, even with the help of a very skilled PM from their side. We wasted a lot of time trying to get this up and running and eventually pulled the plug. We were not eligible for a refund at that time, but we are very happy we moved to OR.

Incredibly Powerful

OwnerRez support has been amazing--I've clogged their inbox many times while setting up and they not only get back to me lightening fast, but they look at my account and suggest other things I can do next.

PROS

Starting out I went with a very simple property management software to avoid overwhelm, but quickly outgrew the simplistic platform and wanted more robust features and functionality. OwnerRez has that in spades--but it's not complex, just robust and extremely thoughtful.

CONS

Waiting for VRBO messaging integration but other than that, zero complaints.

Reason for choosing OwnerRez

To be honest, I had that day to implement and I had a call with Hostaway and they blew off the call, so I signed up for OwnerRez and never looked back. Zero regrets.

User-friendly, intuitive, and the BEST customer support

When I started in this business, I managed 10 properties and did everything by hand with spreadsheets. I communicated with [SENSITIVE CONTENT HIDDEN] for weeks before making the leap to purchase the software and web hosting. I remember being so afraid to leave what I knew and start with something unfamiliar, even though creating month-end statements were taking up a whole day and organizing each day took way more time than it should. I definitely lost sleep over how to move forward. I also remember telling [SENSITIVE CONTENT HIDDEN] that if this works, I'll yell my satisfaction from the rooftops! Here I am, on the rooftops.

PROS

The biggest positive is the quick and responsive customer support. I often don't have time to go through the forum to see if the answer already exists and will shoot an email over to the help desk. I usually get a reply within an hour or two. If there is an article that will help, they send that too. My second favorite is the ribbon calendar that I can color code as I need. It is easy to read in the fly which is how I operate on most days. The third favorite thing I use is the daily report so I can easily print the report on the way out the door and have all I need at a glance. Add to these the other helpful components that are really TNTM ("too numerous to mention") such as charts, comparisons, easy listing adjustments, and other tools I will probably never learn to use.... this software is really packed full of what each user needs for their own purposes.

CONS

There isn't anything I like least - although there are tasks of my job that are less appealing than others, such as assigning rates. I am learning how to grasp some of the larger concepts in this area but the software "makes sense" in how the different components of pricing is deployed - rates, seasons, discounts, etc.... Once one creates the greater goals, implementation becomes intuitive. As mentioned before, I have been very fortunate to have help from the developers on how to implement pricing despite the tediousness of the task.

Reason for choosing OwnerRez

One reason I chose Owner Rez over some of the larger companies out there was because the price was more affordable. I also felt like the developers were interested in helping small businesses like mine even though they are poised to support the larger ones. I felt they were personally more aware of the real issues "on the ground" and could empathize with what people in my position need. The reality is that with empathy has come understanding of needs and changes in the software. I also never felt pressured, was not contacted a bunch of times to push me into making my decision. The really just let me come to my own conclusion. I couldn't be more thrilled with every aspect of my decision.

Awesome Product

Before retiring and managing my rental property I was in the IT department of a large hospital for 40 years, involved in application development, vendor application management and a technical systems engineer, MCSE, CNE, CCNA, VCP. So I have had a lot of experience with software and systems. I had been using another property management product for a year that was absolutely horrible and had zero enhancements to the product while I was with them. The main reason that I chose this product to begin with was that it offered me the ability to offer my guests property damage protection and trip cancellation insurance for a property owner that has only one property, all the other products required the owner to have/manage at least 5 properties. After test driving the product for the free trial period I quickly found that this product was for me and dumped my prior vendor like a hot potato. The system is rich in all the major features that a property owner could ask for like a large number of payment methods, legal agreement integration including guest online signing, email templates, triggers and tracking, listing site integration, travel insurance, property damage protection and a host of others. The owners/developers of this product actually do listen to their customers, I have been with them for a short 5 months and have seen a number of enhancements in that short time. Their response time for questions is very quick and they have answered all my questions. I highly recommend this product.

PROS

The setup process was straight forward and includes a Setup Interview to make sure that you configure the minimum configuration to get things going. After you have configured the system they also include an import feature so that you can import all your information from excel to make the transition a breeze. You are able to modify an invoice on the fly before sending the quote to the guest to include additional line items like a Special Discount, change a charge, delete a line item, etc. You have complete control over the invoice and how it will be presented to the guest, absolutely fantastic.

CONS

The rates database is separate from the seasons database and I feel if the rates were included in the seasons database it would make the setup process a little easier.

Vendor Response

Thanks, Chester! We appreciate having you as a customer! Lot of great new features just around the corner.

Best customer support ever!

My biggest business problem is, what's going on right now, today? The different screens I have at my fingertips helps me keep my pulse on what is happening today, tomorrow and next week.

PROS

I love what this software does for me. The daily tracking and the ease of having the information I need right at my fingertips. The customer support is second to none. I'm learning more and more as I dive into it and there are so many things that OwnerRez anticipated and already have in the software. The customer service has been awesome and very responsive. I'm not techy but they help me through each little road block I hit.

If you're an Owner/Host, this is by far the best property management product on the market

PROS

The most important first step in managing the Guest experience is removing the "middle man", and that's hard to do in the short-term rental business. Yet that seems to be exactly what has been driving the OwnerRez team as they have developed their software (and service). OwnerRez enables you, the Owner/Host, to take greater control of the Guest Experience from beginning to end. There's still a lot for you to do beyond that to ensure a great Guest experience, but this particular aspect of the the OwnerRez value proposition is pure gold to Owner/Hosts looking to deliver a great experience for their Guests.

CONS

The feature set is so extensive and so robust that I have yet to find anything lacking.

Reasons for switching to OwnerRez

They were recommended by my website developer, but they were recommended based on the capabilities of their large enterprise product rather than the recently-acquired SMB product that is seriously lacking most of the capabilities available in their large enterprise product. I've been in the software business for decades, and whenever I see a large-enterprise-focused software company acquire a product specifically to go after SMB at a lower price-point I know that product is ultimately doomed.

The absolutely best software for vacation rental owners to manage bookings, emails, etc.

My experience has been better than I expected. Because I am not very computer savvy, I really appreciate their suggestions and links to where I need to go.

PROS

Anytime I have a question and contact OwnerRez I hear back from them very quickly. They always answer my question, but also make suggestions for things they notice on my site with them that could use some tweaking. I love that because I am with OwnerRez I am able to require accidental damage insurance for all bookings, regardless of where they originate from. Without OwnerRez I would not have been able to do that since Inhave only 2 vacation rentals.

CONS

There is nothing.in I don’t like. It has done everything and much more than I expected.

Reason for choosing OwnerRez

OwnerRez does everything I need in a vacation rental software, and a bunch I didn't know I needed.

It makes running my business easier than I could have imagined. It's the one system I can't live without. The automation that it provides makes it so I don't hardly need to lift a finger. Many people say that Short Term Rentals are not passive income investments. OwnerRez challenges this notion.

PROS

I wish I could give 6 or 7 stars for Features and Functionality and Customer Support. The software and support team are outstanding. I've tried running booking plugins on a Wordpress site, and that gave me lots of headaches. While searching for new plugins, I found OwnerRez and a few other similar applications. After researching reviews online, I narrowed it down to two and tried the other one first. It still left me wanting in some areas. Then I tried OwnerRez and I was hooked. Since I had other issues with Wordpress overall, I jumped right in and added the OwnerRez hosted web site too. It's super easy to configure, and very reasonably priced. And did I mention the support is awesome? Every once in a while I find something new that I think would be a great addition. Some of those have already been incorporated as new features in the product.

CONS

I briefly considered giving 4 stars for Ease of Use, because there are so many options and features that sometimes it's overwhelming. But overall, I think that's a great thing, and it wouldn't be fair to rate them less than 5 stars. And anything that I have trouble with, I just send an email to the support team and get a response within a few hours. Or if I can't find a feature, they let me know exactly where it's located. The more I use it, the easier it becomes.

Vacation Rental - Customer Service

We recommend OwnerRez to other vacation rental hosts who use multiple booking platforms.

PROS

It can grow with us a vacation rental business. We currently do not accept direct payments or have our own website, but we can expand to those when we are ready. We can post and coordinate multiple channels. We can share several calendars with our cleaners and maintenance contractors in an easy calendar format.

CONS

The initial setup is cumbersome. OwnerRez is a powerful software that must be set up correctly from the initial posting of your vacation rental. We decided to pay OwnerRez for additional support. We recommend that step for new users. It helped us to understand the full capabilities and scope of the software. The customer service is quick, responsive, and informative, and will work with you to get creative solutions. However, you cannot speak with someone on the phone. It must be done via email which is slower for quick questions.

Excellent Software for short term vacation renter

My overall experience has been fantastic. I feel in control of my business and ready to grow. OwnerRez has put me in the drivers seat.

PROS

The use of OwnerRez has streamlined my business in a way I could not have imagined. I no longer have concerns of double bookings, connecting with guests or collecting payments. I have saved so much time, work and simplified my business. Their customer service is outstanding. When I have a question, they are there to lead me. Recently, used their concierge service to add my newest property. I cannot express the level of personal care, value and education I received. I highly recommend using this service when starting OwnerRez or adding a property.

I chose OwnerRez because it is an all inclusive product and they partner with other products. They are open to expanding and growing as the industry will change.

After 25 Channel Manager Demos I chose OwnerRez

I've covered a lot in the other areas, but they really are fantastic. I'm only about a month into working with them and I have an entire booking engine up and relatively smoothed out in every major way. Let me tell you... as someone who has worked in tech for a long time... that is not usually the case with something this detailed... I'm not a plug-and-play kind of operator either. I like to maximize the features available, so this is coming from a person who stress-tests systems.

PROS

Their customer service is SECOND TO NONE in my experience. They have direct API integration to all the major channels, tutorials for everything you need to build out your own site, API partnerships with tons of great 3rd party services and seem very open to integration with more if requested. Rolling out new technologies and upgrades constantly... This is the team I want to be on. Interactive and supportive.

CONS

Since their focus seems to be vigorously on functionality, 3rd party inclusion/API syncing, and constant growth within their own custom system, I would say the one issue they have is that while they focus on FUNCTION, they're less bothered by FASHION. Everything works beautifully (in my experience) but not a lot of the action behind the hood is sexy. It's like PC vs Mac. But I will take function over UI any day.

Reason for choosing OwnerRez

Price, API Sync with the major platforms, API sync with 3rd party partners for enhanced guest experience, customer service.

I am trying to manage 4 short term rental properties and being able to see them all on one page makes my life much easier. Often clients will want 1-2 of my properties - now I can look in one place and answer them. Also, now I'm able to take direct bookings on my own website easily.

PROS

The most amazing thing about this software is the excellent, helpful and friendly (and fast!) customer support. I have four properties on Airbnb, Homeaway and VRBO, so getting all those calendars synched, templates written and triggers set up was daunting, but they were always there sometime instantly to help me. Having their app on my phone is a great new improvement too. I highly recommend this product.

CONS

The only thing missing is that I wish that my cleaners could log in and mark whether or not they can do a cleaning. However, the folks at Owner Rez said they are working on it! When that happens, it will be even better.

The Eagle Has Landed

Very supportive with gentle, tactful reminders on the implementation progress and the remaining time left to fulfill the Client's portion of the implementation obligation. Always felt like we had a 'lifeline' we could call while migrating our data from another existing Owner Rez client.

PROS

The integration with VRBO, credit card payment management, integration with QuickBooks On-Line, integration with our housekeeping vendor's software, prospective guest inquiry management notifications

CONS

Because of the tedium required to integrate with the booking companies, there are some mind-numbing moments to get up and running when entering each specific property

I am one of a family of 3 that uses OwnerRez to rent our 5 houses

OwnerRez makes the process of presenting a property to the potential customer in an easy way. And, we have our own site for presenting our houses, showing availability, pricing and so on and, if a customer fills in their information, it goes to to OwnerRez.

PROS

OwnerRez was very easy to use. Also, when I had a problem or question, someone from OwnerRez contacted me quickly and solved the problem.

CONS

I like everything about OwnerRez software.

Reason for choosing OwnerRez

They were recommended by my friends who were retiring.

Reasons for switching to OwnerRez

Once my friends retired, I told them about OwnerRez and the two companies worked together to create a even better side for me and my family. We are very pleased

OwnerRez is great

There are just a ton of software options out there for vacation rental management (and it seems more all the time). I solidly and unabashedly recommend this software to any and all who ask my opinion, not just because the software works well and saves me time, but their responsiveness is fantastic. It feels more like a real partnership working with them.

PROS

Great value, especially for smaller operators like me. Customer service is immediate, personal, and helpful.

CONS

There are some integrations that are not yet implemented, but some also require a user to manage more than 5 properties (not an OwnerRez limit - an industry-wide threshold).
