About Guesty Lite

Guesty Lite is a property management platform built for short-term rental hosts with one to three listings. It simplifies the day-to-day tasks of managing your properties across multiple booking channels, helping you stay organized, maximize revenue, and deliver a better guest experience.

You can manage bookings, guest messages, calendars, and task assignments from a single dashboard. Guesty Lite connects directly with Airbnb, Vrbo, Booking.com, and your own direct booking site, so your availability and pricing stay up-to-date everywhere. Features like automated messaging, a shared inbox, and a unified calendar help keep things running smoothly without the need for extra tools.

Hosts who switch to Guesty Lite have seen, on average, +9% revenue growth within their first year.

If you want to add more functionality, Guesty Lite also offers Guesty PriceOptimizer for dynamic pricing based on local market trends and seasonality, and Guesty Shield for damage protection, liability coverage, and guest screening. The Guesty Marketplace has more integrations for cleaning coordination, upsells, and workflow automation.

Trusted in more than 100 countries, Guesty Lite gives independent hosts...

YourPorter App

It is a good software that will save me lots of time and headaches from double bookings and logging into to multiple OTA's. It is great to be able to do things from one place.

Ease of use

Customer support

Functionality

Pros:

The messaging and calendar integration have been huge for us to have one place to get everything done.

Cons:

Customer service and on-boarding has been difficult. Having a FAQ sheet to learn how to use the software versus a person or videos to see how its done.

Reasons for choosing Guesty Lite

Your Porter seemed like the best value of all the products that we looked at. Guesty has more features and is more user friendly but the cost is simply to much for my business when compared to Your Porter. Your Porter has most all of the same features just scaled down and without as much customization for a great price point. Also not charging me a for months that I do not have bookings is a massive bonus for me as I manage in a seasonal market where the rentals are closed half the year.

Pros:

Channel management features. I have booked on AirBNB, VRBO, Booking and my Website and it keeps everything organized.

Cons:

Some new features on Booking.com makes me have to go to both websites. The service is defintely focused on AirBNB of all the different websites that it supports.

Reasons for choosing Guesty Lite

It was the best fit for my business and came highly recommended with youtube influencers.

Pros:

That it pulled my Airbnb listings into one place

Cons:

It often doesn't load, it doesn't tie my listings into the right place sometimes, notifications to the cleaners don't go out more than they do go out, the support is atrocious takes week and sometimes months to get back to you (3 months is my record for a reply)

Best in Class everything for a reasonable price

Functionality

Pros:

Automated Messaging is killer. Truly flexible in so many ways. For the price this is the only app where you can sms guests and your team.

Cons:

Improved website templates and booking widget would seal the deal

Reasons for switching to Guesty Lite

Lodgify advertised everything but lacked the depth of Lodgify. For example, with YourPorter, you can schedule automated messages any day, any time. With Lodgify, you're set to their schedule. YourPorter also exports full details to iCal so I can integrate with Zapier and my Rental Lock Automator. Lodgify's iCal export has so little data, it's basically useless.

Nothing positive to say. Customer service was non-existant. They’re trying to use AI to respond.

Great onboarding and responsive customer service with real live people.

Pros:

Guesty for Hosts does the minimum well, but there are other better products out there for less money.

Cons:

Guesty for Hosts has poor customer support. They treat Guesty for Hosts very badly and seem to have little regard for Hosts users compared to Guesty for Pros. They focus all of their time and energy on the Pros. Why even have a Hosts level if they don't support the users or update the product. They do false advertising to draw you in only to discover that most of the integrations with other products are only for the Pros subscription and the Hosts level.

Reasons for choosing Guesty Lite
