Lodgify vs Elioplus PRM: Which is a better fit?

Sophie S.: So my name is Sophie. I am the owner of Shiny Blue Apartments, and I am giving Lodgify a five star review. So before Lodgify, I was manually using the different channels, Airbnb and Booking.com, to create reservations for my apartment. The biggest reason that I looked into a consolidated software to help me automate a lot of the tasks, primarily my calendar, my pricing, which was very difficult in managing between the different marketplaces. And then finally the biggest thing that I wanted to do was to create my own website, and Lodgify made it very easy for me to do so. I switched to Lodgify because I wanted an easy to use tool. I was able to get into the product and kind of play around with it and understand how easy it was. The onboarding process was wonderful. The person who I worked with was fantastic. She helped me set up everything, and once she explained a few things to me, it was easy for me to make any changes after that. And then building my website was great. Everything was integrated. I didn't have to create any code or anything like that. It was just a WYSIWYG type of interface that was easy to use. It was very easy to integrate into Lodgify with Airbnb and Booking. VRBO was a little bit of a challenge, but that was not really Lodgify's challenge. It's more of VRBO making it difficult for people to go through it. I have a little bit of a complicated situation with specific prices, actually not prices, but currencies that I use. The apartment is in Cyprus, so I needed to use Euros, so that presented a little bit of a challenge, but again, Maria, who was my onboarding specialist, explained everything to me. She spent more than an hour with me explaining everything and going inside the tool and showing me, not just doing it herself, but showing me and explaining to me why things are done in certain way. And once I did that and kind of understood the way it was built, it was just easy for me to make any changes. I would say make sure that you've got your listings first on your marketplaces. Understand the needs that you have. Make a determination Of you are looking to automate, whether it's your calendar, whether it's your pricing, or whether it's having your direct website. It could also be property management, which I'm currently not using from Lodgify. So I have a list of the criteria by which you're looking at. The other nice thing for Lodgify was, for me, it was pretty affordable, so it wasn't breaking the bank in having the software, so that made it even better for me.
