Hi! I thought this was very informative, but would have loved to see a chart indicating what PMS offers what in comparison. You are clearly knowledgeable about all the resources, a consolidated view and recommendation would have made this video really valuable.
Great suggestion!
I second that. I was hoping that you would do a comparison in this video but hope to have that at some point in time.
@@luvmitSame I was hoping it would help me pic which one to use.
I've seen that Tom at Host Tools makes many comparisons to their competitors. I once saw a complete chart with all the PMS' but it was a few years back. I tried and liked Host Tools for many reasons, but decided to move away from PMS to avoid the Host-Only Fee at that time. I am currently looking again now that Airbnb's Price Total is how their search more fairly ranks listings.
Looking forward to some great content 👌! 😁
More to come!
Hello, I just wanted to say I really appreciated the value this video brought to point out key components to look for, I was wondering which PMS software you would recommend if I collect commission per rental but I also manage the properties so the tools for managers are important but I also need something cost efficient as opposed to the high fee some of them charge per rental listing. I would really appreciate any feedback or recommendations on this scenario, love your videos. Thanks anyways :)
Thanks for the comment, I don't think there's a clear winner here
what do you use for automated messages for cleaners? great video!
What do you mean?
Hello! I have a 2 unit str. Some do book the whole house. Currently only booking through airbnb. I have guests looking to book the whole house just book both listings. Considering adding a third listing for the whole house and listing on vrbo, etc. I'd like to have a dedicated direct booking site for this property only. Not managing a bunch of properties but may acquire more properties in the future. I'd want each property to have it's own site and branding. What is the best way to do this?
You may looking into Booklee, 15% off with the code: OPTIMIZE bit.ly/45JzeB6
Thanks for the info. Do you have any suggestions for a way or app so that I can keep my commission as a manager and the owner gets paid automatically without having to do it manually every time?
I'll have to look into it
What would you recommend for a property manager currently with 3, with direct booking integration on website, and we are growing. We are between Hostfully & Hostaway. Having a hard time choosing.
What direct booking platform are you using?
I have a question about pricing. I am about to open two units along the C&O Canal bike trail. There are two separate floors in a 3 story old building. The 2nd floor has 4 bedrooms. I want to price based upon how many bedrooms will be used. This is becuase there is much more laundry and higher cleaning fees based upon how many beds must be washed and cleaned. Can you recommend a paltform with a pricing model I can use?
I always recommend PriceLabs, I have plenty of tutorials on how use their customizations, have a look!
Hey, you mentioned that you are looking for a PMS that has better reporting. We use guesty with advanced analytics that seems to have a fair bit. I was wondering, what is missing in your opinion for reoting on PMS software? Are you able to share that manual sheet with me at all? We are building our own PMS so would love to add some features you think are lacking
Cheers
Josh
On the top of my mind I really dislike companies with bad customer service, that’s not a feature but definitely something to excel at
Loved this video
Where is the simplified pricing video ?
I also missed the recommend lock link
I’ll be contacting you tomorrow about it anyway,because I think you will be lots of value to my listings. Can’t wait !
Search 'simplief pricing' on my channel page
Hey enjoyed your video and signed up for your news letter. One thing that I missed. You said you would share your recommendation for a door lock. I did not see anything about that. Look forward to seeing your recommendation. @@OptimizeMyAirbnb
@@OptimizeMyAirbnb Do you have any updated details on the search ranking results of the Host Only Fee, I am not finding anything concrete.
Hello, I hope you are well.
I'm looking for a PMS.
A couple of questions to know which one is best for me to choose. I have approximately 15 units and I hope to increase it to 50 in the short term.
The properties are in Argentina.
1 I need messages to also be sent via WhatsApp
2 for the booking made from the website can it process payment by credit card even if you are not in the USA. With Guesty it seems that it is not possible.
I wait your answer.
Greetings and thanks
hI mam i accidentaly saw your comment, I'm just wondering if you need a virtual assistant for your AIRBNB property coz i am looking for a job, pls let me know thank you
Thanks for the tips. I've been working as a software engineer for Lodgix PMS. Have you heard about it from hosts you talk to?
We have a small team and we don't do enough marketing, but we're planning to work on this soon.
Lodgify?
@@OptimizeMyAirbnbHah, ok. No. It wasn't a typo. The product is Lodgix. It was founded more than 10 years ago. We have a small team and don't market aggressively at this point. That's why it's less popular than other tools.
@@denisorehovskyI’m a new property manager and I’ll be starting out managing one property for my client. Is your tool good for people with only one property like myself?
@@TunaToona Yep should work well for any number of properties.
@@denisorehovsky thanks for responding, I’ll check it out!
Great video Snowden, but the recommended lock (7:15), please?
Thanks! Link's in the description above table of contents.
What would you recommend for 4 properties?
Hostfully or Guesty
Is hospitable considered a PMS?
I have one STR and can't decide between Guesty and Lodigfy. I have done the trial with Guesty the only thing is I like to communicate with a live person. Not an email. Which do you prefer between the two?
I prefer Guesty
Greetings!
I am the operational manager of a dive resort with 17 bungalows divided to 4 different types. Any suggestion on which software to use?
Thanks in advance 🙏
Have you used any PMS before?
Is Hospitable a PMS? Your opinion on it ? I own and manage 3 properties.
Yes it is, I would recommend you try one mentioned in this video
Hi, I really love your videos. I'm a Short Term Rental Virtual Assistant and Airbnb Co-Host and your videos have helped me so much. Please can you do a review for Beds24.
Thank!
What would you recommend for only 1 property? Or would not recommend any?
I recommend hostfully
Could you give me a recommendation for a booking and payment receiving platform that preferably has an app. I want to "list" my personal vacation home to my friends and family only. So do don't want use an AirBnb or VRBO because then it will show up publicly. It is basically a private owner listing that only have 6-10 weeks available out of the year.
I recommend booklee
What’s the best from 1-3 properties?
Guesty for hosts
What do you think about Eviivo?
Haven't used it yet, but will check it out!
Have you used Hostex pms ?
Not yet
Do hostfully offer automated messaging?
yes
how do you track guests remotely as a co-host to see how many people got in the house? are you asking homeowner to give you security cameras password?
Or you could use Party Squasher which tracks the number of devices connected to the WiFi
@@OptimizeMyAirbnb thanks
Hospitable should be in this list
Perhaps in a future one!
It would be much better if you switch off the background noises 👍
Background music has been considerably lowered in my last video and will continue that way.
@@OptimizeMyAirbnb I had to stop watching because of the music just saying.
Where is the recommended lock?
What?
@@OptimizeMyAirbnb you recommended a lock you've used for years
This is my go to: amzn.to/2kfW66E
You don't use a smart lock?@@OptimizeMyAirbnb
Thank you for sharing your your works with us. The best way to successfully succeed in the long run is to help others succeed.
I am a registered nurse and I have a great 6 bedroom 4 bathrooms home in a gated community and I wish to turn it into a rental property. I’d love your support to list and rent it to quality tenants .
I’m in the process of creating a website with UENI but I’m not sure if that’s a good idea or if it’s necessary,
I’ll pay for the service
You have all my support! Best of luck with your property!
Can I be honest? The music with the clapping element, it was annoying and worked against your fast cuts, creating a noisy, slightly disjointed presentation....sorry.
i know i know I've stopped doing that on my recent videos. ty for the feedback
@@OptimizeMyAirbnb I just read through all the comments and see my feeling was shared, sorry for the re-iteration AND I noticed a tough crowd, sheesh. What PMS do you use?
Lodgify info, pls
They're not too popular of a tool with my audience so I don't have access to their system. I do reviews when I get access to a live account. If you are using them and willing to share account access, please reach out.
I'm in the process of ditching Lodgify and looking for a new tool. Their sync across multiple channels is not great.
There seems to be a really annoying 'click-track' running through this video which actually stops you concentrating on what is being said. Either that or there is something wrong with my PC. I dont see how this helps at all? Please enlighten me
Thank you for your feedback! Will keep it in mind for future videos.
What’s the best when you have 10 units
Hostfully or OwnerRez (very powerful, but high learning curve; I will do a review on them soon)
Why are you ad free? You know UA-cam puts ads before and after videos even if you don’t. ….. you don’t want an extra thousand dollars a month? Make the money hunny!
no they don't......................😳😳😳
I want to hear this , and am trying, but that background clicky music thing is unbearable. I can't seem to focus on your words.
Thanks for the feedback I think the audio has improved in the newest videos
Awesome! I'll check those out, thank you.@@OptimizeMyAirbnb
Waste of time, just advert for selling stuff… I came away not knowing anything about different direct booking options
This is not a video about direct bookings...
Click bait 😢
😂
I find that this video provides very little guidance on which PMS software to pick. It does not really compare the different providers. Which one is the best? Not really mentioned here. So you still have to do your own research. 15 minutes wasted.
Sorry to hear that, I'll keep in mind to do a more detailed video in the future
ship to half way dude talks too much. half the video is filler
*skip....but UA-cam tells me you watched only the first 4 seconds before leaving the comment..
@@OptimizeMyAirbnbfunny 😂.. I enjoyed the content
it's already 12 minutes gone and still no useful info, closing the video, thanks for nothing.
thousands would disagree, but thanks anyways for the comment
This video is Waste of time to be honest
I’ll try to do a deeper dive in the future
Remove this f background music .
Yessir. Refer to my recent videos
annoying video, cutting is over the top
Thanks for the feedback, I think my videos have improved since this one
bla bla . zero content.
