With BananaDesk, you can connect your front desk to your sales channels and let your receptionists manage your day-to-day operations easily. That way everything doesn't depend on you, the owner. And you can get back to focusing on growing your business, not managing the day-to-day.

It's great software administrated by a friendly company. I wouldn't dream of looking elsewhere for property management software.

Pros

It's very straightforward software and therefore it's very easy to teach new users all the functions and features in a short period of time.

Cons

It's built-in channel manager only connects to Booking.com and Hostelworld. But, since those are the main booking sites, it's not a huge inconvenience.

Since we ate using bananadesk we do not have any problem with our reservations or with overbooking, this also helps us to manage the guests payment. So and many other things that we do not need to lose much time using this channel.

Pros

This a very good channel to manage you company, we are using for more then one year and this is helping us alot about: Reservation, payment, manage our rooms, incoming, outgoing...

Cons

I like so much becouse i can see all incoming and all outgoing everytime that i want, check in and check out of our guest,

BD is easy to use, and reliable all the times. We seldom have problem of receiving booking or overbook. Overall experience is great.

Pros

Customer Service team, always fast response and solve my problems quickly

Cons

The operation part is amazing, but if they can improve the Guest Analysis and Marketing Analysis that will be great. Now is too simple and not very indicative.

great! good service and always helpful. the product is easy to understand

Pros

It is so easy simple and fast to use. It is really clear and not complicated and easy to explian to new staff members.

Cons

the last change that have been made is really not great. We really have put an effort in getting to change our mentality about it but nobody of our teams it great and it is just more hassle checking people in where it was so easy and fast before. it cost more time and it makes the ppl in our team annoyed. especially if we have a lot of checkins at the same time.
