Boutique Hotel PMS

PROS

The software is well designed for small-medium sized hotels, the cost is low compared to other PMS relooked at. Lots of great functions such as Group Reservations, Add-ons to upsell on booking engine, Built-in booking engine, integrations with various POS and other software. The Forum is a great place to suggest improvements. The reason we picked it is because our city of operation loses electricity and internet often, and the Smart Files allows us to do check-ins and check-outs regardless. Offers all the great upgrades for hotels that need it to grow.

CONS

Very few cons, but if I had to state a couple: Takes a long time to get a Mac version developed, only Windows. Integrations are pricey but there is a vast array to choose from. Antiquated MS-DOs looking platform, could use some updating. Just small things

Reasons for switching to RoomKeyPMS

MSI was going cloud-based only and getting rid of its desktop-based software. Also half the cost

Vendor Response

Thank you very much for the review. We strive to be a affordable PMS that is high-value. Please make sure to update free to RoomKeyPMS 10 for the updated modern look. Thanks for the feedback. Please don't hesitate to reach out if you need anything.

Roomkey is easy to grasp most general areas. the finite idosyncrinicities can be a little difficult for a less computer literate person to understand but it can be trained into them.

PROS

Katie Mclane with roomkey has been outstanding in her ability to help with any issues I have encountered.

CONS

Elearn needs to be kept current with the versions of roomkey so that we can accuratly train new employees. whenever a new version comes out a complete list of all the changes made should be provided before the version comes out so that policies that may be affected by the changes can be reviewed and adjusted accordingly. the tokenization of CC#'s has created some issues. Having the "settle" button on the authorized transaction window is almost a nessesity for our property. there are issues with authorizations becomeing confusing for our guests and they think we have double charged them. Iknow that better training in this area does solve most issues but when new employees are just learning roomkey they make mistakes and the settle button can solve this.

Vendor Response

eLearn - we are currently working on making our online training library more user friendly by merging documents. This will make it much easier to find what you¿¿¿re looking for. As an example, if you were looking for a document on how to change your rates, you would go to the Rates Module Document and the table of contents will direct you to the section on how to change rates. Documents for new versions - We have started this process as of our most recent release. On all future upgrades we plan to send updated docs out a few weeks before the release date so that clients can learn about new features in advance and be better prepared to get the most out of RoomKey Settle button for Shift 4 ¿¿¿ This has been added in our new release.

Great Customer Service and Functionality

I have compared products over the last 3-4 years. While there are some enticing features offered by competitors, I have not been able to find another company which can deliver everything RoomKeyPMS can offer, nor can they do so at the same price point.

PROS

Fully integrated with OTA's and our website Ease of use Excellent support staff Integrated Housekeeping scheduler

CONS

I'd like the capability to schedule housekeeping the day before. Minor frustrations with glitches which require front desk agent to log out and log back in

Vendor Response

Thank you for your feedback! This information will be passed along to our Product team. We are thrilled to hear about the level of support received from our team and the integration capabilities for online presence via your website and OTA's!

Excellent Tech Agent- [sensitive content hidden]

My experience is always fantastic because of your agent [sensitive content hidden], always there to complete any errors or support needed

PROS

The support! [sensitive content hidden] is great asset to your team. Due to the fact that he knows your system and can easily fix an issues when prompt to. You should promote him, but he needs to be our tech agent forever.....

CONS

Takes to long to load and you cannot put a reservation in for more than 3 months without it glitching

Reason for choosing RoomKeyPMS

It was the number one brand at that time

Customer service

PROS

We are an independent boutique hotel that has been using Roomkey PMS since 2014. This cloud based system is very easy to use and for new Front Desk Agents easy to learn. The customer service is top notch, especially Adam who is always very patient and responsive.

CONS

Would be nice if the system can work on Apple computers and Ipads

Reason for choosing RoomKeyPMS

It was cloud based and easy to learn and set-up.

Vendor Response

Thank you for your comments on our cloud-based system and customer service. RoomKeyPMS does have compatibility to run on MAC only.

It helped us grow

They were the right change for us when we switched. I didn't feel like they developed much for our use. Their development seemed to focus on products that cost money to implement.

PROS

For the most part easy to use. There were several reports I liked a lot.

CONS

no mobility to use the product. Groups sales had some issues. The product seemed slow compared to other systems.

Great product to get started

PROS

It is a strong and neat system that is easy to navigate, the information layout is clean and clear and the menu is great. The fact it is cloud-based is great as it can be navigated from anywhere.

CONS

Some of the reporting could be advanced, saying that they need to work on the customer service as it is not very effective.

Great PMS for Independent Hotels & Property Management

A solid PMS system for a new hotel with mixed use inventory, a robust rate strategy and many amenities.

PROS

RoomKey has robust features built into the basic package with affordable add-ons for numerous property types. The customer service and a support team that lives up to the sales pitch (which isn't always the case). It is a solid choice of PMS systems for independent hotels and small hotel companies not tied into proprietary PMS systems.

CONS

I honestly have not come across any real cons. Perhaps the information provided, pre-installation, could have been more robust. The client I was working with to choose and implement was not very knowledgeable and likely could not have done the installation without our help.

Outstanding Customer Service

From start to finish, the company was helpful, friendly and knowledgeable. They listened to what we needed and because we are a non-profit and not the usual type of client to use PMS software, they showed us how to use the system to our advantage and worked with us on customizing some reports that we found necessary.

PROS

As a non-profit organization, the combination of features and affordability made this product a winner. The platform is easy to navigate, the dashboard is very user friendly and if you don't know how to do something, there are hundreds of FAQs and How to articles with step by step instructions and screen shots to guide you. If you still need help, the customer service is exceptional. They are prompt, polite, knowledgeable and very friendly.

CONS

I have not found anything that I haven't liked.

Reasons for switching to RoomKeyPMS

Needed a software system that would communicate with our bookkeeping system.

Vendor Response

Hi Charles. Thank you for the review. You and your team a pleasure to work with.

Room Key Pays for Itself!

Overall recommendation, looking into RSI would be a benefit to any hotel looking to maximize their revenue, save time, use state of art technology for GDS, key cards, credit card processing, etc. It's truly a magnificent system and the favorite aspect of our front desk

PROS

As a General Manager of 20 years in the hospitality industry I can confidently say our hotels performance is directly linked to Room Key. The technology is affordable; the staff at RSI is extremely cutting edge. Within the first six months of using RSI our occupancy went up 10%. Our staff honestly loves the system, front desk can be trained to take reservations and oversee check-ins within a few hours. The accessibility of having an online system allows us to work from anywhere at anytime. RSI allows us the maximize presence with the GDS by offering a two-way interface that is so easy to use and gives maximum control. We are a mid size property of 70 rooms that operates a year round occupancy of 93-95% with an average stay of less than 3 days. We operate extremely efficiently because of RSI. We feel passionate about PMS provider and the team that supports us.

CONS

Well, in regards to the cons of the software, I guess there are a couple of things that I would like to see in future upgrades. We'd like to see the tape chart show a few additional days and we would like to enhance the logo imaging on the confirmations that we email out along with the fonts and overall design. We'd also like to add a function that drops held reservations with out guarantees after a preset time.

A good product for our type of hotel - versatile and some very good components.

Their system has been deployed across all our hotels in Thailand, Philippines, Indonesia and Japan and one of the nifty functionalities is our ability to select a repeat guest profile irregardless of which country they are booking. It also allows us to be more flexible in pricing (tiering of rates), tracking of production numbers for corporate and wholesale accounts; able to customize reports and export to excel for further mining; a very good maintenance module enabling us to track works (and costs) being done in rooms and throughout the hotel. Able to merge duplicate customer profiles. Responsive customer service section and great trainers. Their BI Reports section continues to grow in scope and in-depth reporting - enabling us to better understand our customers and demand. The only major downside of this software is that it doesn't support multi-language - however in saying that their new version (web & cloud based) will have that ability. Can't wait!
