Pros / Cons
  • It s interface is very user friendly and that decreases the stress of operating my business
  • A couple of features missing eg Security Deposits- money is taken through stripe as opposed to stripe just holidng the card details; therefore you will always be charged a fee, even if you return the security deposit to guests.

  • The automated messaging, calendar syncing, and channel management tools work smoothly together, which makes day-to-day property management much more efficient.
  • Also, the VRBO integration had bugs and issues and did not work for about 3 weeks to connect, during that time we had a double booking and had to cancel on a guest for a reservation over the Thanksgiving Day weekend.
