eZee Absolute vs Hostfully Property Management Platform: Which is a better fit?

Speaker 1: Oh, hi. My name is Harjit, and I own a hostel. We use eZee Absolute, and I give them five out of five. You can click below for more information. Now, when we started this hostel, we have 10 rooms and about 31 bed inventory. We were just using manual Excel worksheets. Very tedious. keeping track of who is coming, who is going, who has paid. It's not an easy job. And then we started looking for something more proper, like booking software. And then we talked to a few companies online and then we finally decided on eZee. It's looking good for us. It has all the features and things that we need. We're not even using, I would say, 10% of its feature, but I'm sure it's a very good software. The reason we decided on eZee is mainly not because we knew the product, because we knew the service standard. I talked to a couple of friends who are using eZee and they told about the service they're getting. And we experienced exactly the same thing anytime we had any situation. In the start, setting up or doing something that we didn't know how to do, these people are 24/7 available. Getting started with eZee, I would say it is really easy. The onboarding guide that we had, he did pretty much all the input information. They helped us with all that and the first week or so, we didn't knew what the routine was, but after a week, hardly. Every six months or so, we would call to find out a new feature, or if we need to add something or not. Other than that, I'm able to do it myself. It's really easy to get started and use it ongoing. Now that I have been using eZee for almost two years, if anyone out there looking for some sort of solution for managing their booking, the general manager or something like that, I would suggest try eZee. There are other products that you may have tried, or you may have heard recommendations for, but eZee has not let me down. And I hope they would take care of you as well.

Holbrook: Hello, my name's Holbrook. I am the owner of Casa Encanto, which is short-term rental. And Hostfully is my property management system. And I give Hostfully a five-star review. I use Hostfully for their digital guidebook, but then I have them integrate my other OTAs, the booking.com, Vrbo and Airbnb. And I'm working on Google Travel or Google Vacations. And they then send out automated automatic messages to my guests. I use it for my calendar. I have another app, PriceLabs I use for my pricing. And then I'm going to start using Hostfully's direct booking site more. And I think that's where I need help with setting up social media. The thing that has impressed me right from the get-go with Hostfully is the attention they pay to customer support. Right from the beginning, the people that I've interacted with have been both very knowledgeable, professional, courteous, and have been able to take a newcomer and a relatively old newcomer to the short-term rental business through the whole process. And anytime I have any question or issue, they get back to me in a timely manner. And so I've been very, very happy with them. Well, as a professor, long time retired professor, I've had to do hundreds of letters of recommendation or phone interviews for candidates. And the question that always stumps me is, what do I like least about a candidate or what their weaknesses are because we always tend to pay attention to the negative as opposed to the positive. And so I think with Hostfully, sometimes it gets a little complicated going through, setting up everything. But that having been said, they have a lot of videos, they've instituted a Hostfully University that has courses. And so even in that relative weakness or something that I don't like, I still find that Hostfully addresses that.
