How to pick between them
- Count your listings first. Most STR property management pricing scales per-listing or per-tier. The right tool at 3 listings is often the wrong one at 30.
- Do booking fees matter to you? A 1% fee on $200k/yr of direct bookings is $2,000/yr. That can flip the math.
- List the non-negotiable integrations. Your dynamic pricing tool, cleaning platform, and smart locks all need to connect. Confirm before committing.
- Free trial or demo only? Some vendors let you touch the product. Others only show it on a sales call. If trialing matters to you, that filters fast.
