Rental Software

Like any software, they are improving things. I like this way better than Guesty, but one of my main reasons for changing was the improved API integration with Airbnb which allows the selection of who the message sender is in Airbnb when sending messages from Hostaway. This is not perfect as you cannot set a default sender, which I didn't know. However, I raised this concern and got a very nice email from the development team letting me know they will actively work on this. They are even leaving my ticket open to let me know once it has been completed. This is such a far cry above the service level of Guesty, I can't even begin to tell you.

Like any good STR PMS - this helps me manage all of my calendars, communications, and automations in one place for all my distribution channels. This software is just much easier to use than the previous one I was on (Guesty). One of my chief complaints with Guesty is that you cannot call in for support, and their software is unnecessarily complicated. Nothing is intuitive, not even setting names. Many times when I got stuck, I would spend more than an hour on instant message with support trying to resolve a problem, only for them to say they couldn't resolve it because they were on the wrong team and needed to escalate it, which meant it wouldn't get solved for several more business days, and would have to be resolved by email. Even then, many times, they didn't correctly understand my problem for whatever reason. Hostaway solves this by using intuitive user-friendly UX, and they have support members who speak great English, and are 24/7 available and ready to help solve your problems.

None so far I really love Turo it so very inconvenient for me Customer support are very helpful the platform and app is easy to use Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Turo solves the problem of limited and often expensive car rental options by connecting everyday car owners with people who need a vehicle.

Access to unique cars that might not be available at big rental companies.

More convenient pick-up and drop-off locations, sometimes even right in your neighborhood.

Flexible rental periods—from a few hours to several weeks.

Often more affordable rates with the chance to choose exactly the car that fits your needs. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The accounting aspect for service providers still lacks visibility and clarity. Cleaning agents do not have access to a summary dashboard with their completed, uncompleted tasks, and the associated amounts. As a result, they frequently send me invoices that do not always match the RentalReady schedule, which leads to unnecessary manual checks. A dedicated module or better tracking would greatly improve consistency and save everyone time. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

RentalReady allows me to solve several recurring issues in my business: managing booking flows, coordinating between owners, travelers, cleaning and maintenance teams, as well as centralizing information. I save time, avoid human errors, have a clear view of schedules, and my travelers automatically receive essential information, which greatly improves my satisfaction rate and overall rating.

Only mild issue is the phone app (on android, but I heard iphone does it as well in the townhalls) logs you out once in awhile, and you need to log back in. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Come on in, the water is fine. If you want, you can run Hospitable on top of another PMS that is API connected like I did at first, but then hospitable worked so well I just use them now. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Hosptiable solved cross platform communications for me, and cross platform booking calendars for myself and the cleaners. Automated messaging also frees up alot of time and effort and with Hospitibale the guest communications seem easy.

Hospitible is working out a few bugs with the door lock integration and so that has been going better (new feature within the last few months, so it wasn't going to be perfect).

Support is pretty great with Hospitable as well; support responds quickly and usually with a quick fix or how to. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Currently no dislikes. The platform is working as designed and easy to understand. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Not having to constantly adjust rates for seasonality is a big plus and frees up more time for other projects. The pricing suggestions are always on point and very helpful! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I think the interface of Wheelhouse could be cleaned up and simplified a little bit. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I use Wheelhouse to predict pricing for my Airbnb listing, eliminating guesswork. It provides a snapshot with data analytics, allowing me to quickly assess pricing trends and bookings. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

While Ciirus offers a variety of self-help resources, I often find that they don’t quite get me to the finish line. More often than not, I end up reaching out to a Ciirus rep for guidance—and honestly, that’s where the real value is. Their team is always helpful, knowledgeable, and quick to get me back on track. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

One of the biggest benefits for me is having all our reservation information in one place. It makes things so much easier—no more jumping between systems or digging through emails. Ciirus helps keep everything organized and accessible, which saves time and cuts down on mistakes. It’s just a smoother way to manage bookings and guest info.

It is not the cheapest PMS in the market. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Even though I have had my property on Airbnb for three years now, when I first listed it as a short-term rental, I initially wanted to list it in multiple places, such as Vrbo and Booking.com. However, managing the different calendars and platforms proved too complicated. Hostfully solves all that and more. I am pleased with Hostfully and how it will help me expose my rental through the different rental aggregators Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Like any software, there’s a bit of a learning curve at the beginning, especially if you’re setting everything up for the first time. However, the help center and support team make this much easier, and once everything is set up, day-to-day management is very smooth. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Lodgify allows me to manage my Airbnb remotely without stress. I don’t have to worry about double bookings, missed messages, or payment issues. Being able to automate and centralize everything is especially valuable since I’m managing the property from a different country. It lets me run my short-term rental professionally while keeping the workload minimal. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

So far there has not been anything to dislike or complain about. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Great bang for your buck. The features are amazing. I'm not very techy and was able to get everything set up with their guidance. If you feel overwhelmed, just be patient and take it one step at a time and don't hesitate to contact support for guidance. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Can't think of anything, really. I guess I sometimes ask for tech changes and they takes some time to implement. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I run 8 glamping sites on my property, and I am able to manage all of them with ease thanks to iGMS. All software have their issues, but whenever something comes up, iGMS support is speedy with their response. An incredible tool for str management! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I honestly haven’t run into any real downsides, it’s been reliable and does exactly what I need. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I used to track reservations on a paper spreadsheet, which was stressful and left a lot of room for error. Now everything is in one place, organized, and easy to manage. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I'm very happy with guesty. Looking forward to see future releases. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

📌 1. Fragmented Operations

Without a central system, you’d need separate tools for:

Booking calendars

Guest communication

Payments

Task assignment

Reporting

Guesty combines all of these into one dashboard, so you don’t have to switch between multiple apps or spreadsheets.

📌 2. Managing Multiple Booking Channels

If you list on Airbnb, Booking.com, Vrbo, etc., keeping calendars and availability in sync manually is time-consuming and error-prone (leading to double bookings). Guesty’s channel management automatically synchronises listings across platforms.

📌 3. Manual Communication

Responding to guest inquiries, confirmations, check-in instructions and follow-ups can take a huge amount of time. Guesty offers unified messaging and automated responses so you don’t have to manually reply to every message.

📌 4. Routine Task Overload

Preparing properties for guests involves cleaning schedules, maintenance, and coordination with teams. Guesty lets you automate and assign tasks with rules and reminders.

📌 5. Pricing & Revenue Complexity

Figuring out optimal pricing across seasons and listings manually is hard. Guesty includes tools to help dynamically adjust rates for occupancy and revenue optimisation. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Nothing so far, but we are expecting to see more automation. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

While Hosthub offers many valuable features, there are a few areas where I believe there is room for improvement:

Enhanced Integration Options: It would be beneficial if Hosthub could expand its integration capabilities with other third-party services commonly used in the short-term rental industry. This could include integrations with popular channel managers, smart home automation systems, or dynamic pricing tools. Such integrations would provide users with more flexibility and streamline their overall operations.

Customization Options: Offering more customization options within the platform would be helpful. Users may have unique branding needs or specific workflows they prefer to follow. By allowing more customization in terms of property listings, booking settings, and reporting formats, Hosthub could cater to a broader range of user preferences and business requirements.

Mobile App: While Hosthub's web interface is user-friendly, having a dedicated mobile app would further enhance convenience and accessibility. A mobile app would enable users to manage their properties and respond to guest inquiries on the go, providing greater flexibility and responsiveness.

Expanded Customer Support: While Hosthub likely offers customer support, expanding the available support channels (such as live chat or phone support) and extending support hours could improve the overall customer experience. Timely and responsive assistance can be crucial when users encounter urgent issues or have pressing questions.

These suggestions aim to enhance the already strong foundation of Hosthub and provide users with even more comprehensive and tailored solutions for their short-term rental management needs. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Smily solved the tedious problem of recreating my ads on each platform: I publish them once and they are broadcast everywhere. The integrated payment system is a real time and money saver, the integrations are simple, and the extensive catalog makes management smooth and comprehensive.

The interface can feel outdated and not very intuitive for new users. Certain workflows require multiple steps, and reporting customization can be time-consuming. Additionally, system performance can sometimes lag when working with large datasets or running detailed reports. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

so many reports and menus that if you can't remember where something is and it's not on your favorite list, it's very hard to find or use "help" to locate it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

there are a number of additional products that can be piggy-backed onto the software. The basic rentworks will do everything a small agency needs. We added EREZ to automate the online reservation system. Still forming an opinion on that. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

the ability to add notes to a car or renter has been a huge benefit. Went to rent a vehicle to a customer that had not been here for five years but had a bal due. Customer walked but it kept us out of a possible situation. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It would be better if it had the feature of informing about the customer going in and out of the property, it will help with the cleaning duty delegation. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
