Escapia

Escapia Overview:

### Key takeaways

Insights from verified Capterra reviews

Escapia is a property management tool used mainly by small businesses in hospitality and real estate. The tool offers reservation management and trust accounting features, supported by integrations that help reduce booking errors. Some users cite limited reporting and mobile usability as drawbacks.

### Our verdict

It works well for teams managing high-volume property rentals that need detailed control over reservations and accounting. Its integrations support multi-channel visibility, but the reporting tools can be rigid and take time to learn. However, the payoff is consistent operations across listings and departments.

You’ll find Escapia’s layout practical for managing bookings and financials, especially with its searchable calendar and reservation grid. However, expect a learning curve when navigating backend settings or customizing reports, particularly for newer staff.

I was super appreciative of our interactions with the staff at Escapia. Top notch, good people, who really went above and beyond.

Pros

The onboarding process was very thorough, it has all the features I needed and wanted, and support was responsive and helpful at every turn. They improved the product continually and made it easier to communicate with guests, manage our operations, and overall were the software we thought was the best bang for the buck on the market currently.

Cons

The interface is still growing and they are transitioning from an older system to a newer system, which makes some aspects of the software a little harder to navigate.

Escapia is an excellent product and provides exceptional value for the cost. The technical support team are efficient, knowledgable and very professional.

Pros

Feature rich and stable platform. Phone technical support is excellent. Escapia provides excellent value for the cost.

Cons

Various platforms and add ons are not as tightly integrated as we would like, including integration with Airbnb and other platforms outside of the Expedia group. Integrations should be seamless and not problematic for users.

Escapia is an excellent product, it's complete vacation rental management software with great trust accounting. We get good support, we feel the product is continually being improved, and we trust in its accuracy. We also value the many integrations available to help us take advantage of as many OTA's as possible.

Pros

Escapia's robust trust accounting is the best we've found. Reports continue to improve. We are confident in our ability to accurately account for all funds under our control.

Cons

Correspondence is the weakest aspect. The templates aren't the most beautiful things and we don't have enough flexibility or control. Does the job but does it without much wasted effort on style.

Holly is probably my favorite part and her help and availibilty is phenomal. Excited about the road map and where things are headed.

Pros

The ease of use and familiarity with it. They are iterating again which is great. It ties in with the all Expedia products well and new software typically picks Escapia as one of the first PM management systems that they will API with.

Cons

Like a lot of legacy software it has some bolt on feel to it, but they are starting to iterate and the road map looks great.

We rely on it for vacation rental management. Uptime and mission critical functions are reliable.

Pros

It's a good fit for our business. Features are getting deeper over time. Dependable database.

Cons

New coding is clunky. Some UI upgrades seem to benefit their coding skill set rather than keeping the best function.

Excellent. We have had very positive experiences with the support team and company in general.

Pros

The dashboards and customer interaction on the site are great tools. We are working to fully integrate Escapia into our business.

Cons

No real complaints. We are still learning the system. All issues we have had, are usually resolved quickly by the support team.

We have worked with Escapia for over 10 years and have been pleased with our decision to stay with Escapia over that time. Occasionally we have reviewed other software options and still come back to staying with Escapia for their trust accounting, distribution networks, support team, and ease of function.

Pros

We have always maintained a great working relationship with Escapia, their support team, and integration partners. As the industry evolves, we have been pleased with product updates and also use third-party companies who align with Escapia to meet our individual business needs.

Cons

It would be nice to have a few more basic functions included in Escapia. We currently have to use third-party companies for housekeeping, maintenance and guest communication functionality as the version offered in Escapia does not meet our current needs.

Our overall experience has been great. Ease in working with them to learn the programs, ease in curing any problems which have been minor ones, very responsive to a call for assistance and fair pricing.

Pros

Escapia is extremely user friendly. If a question occurs it is easily researched in the tutorials and always a quick answer if we need to call in for assistance. We also appreciate the willingness of Escapia in listening to the customer and trying to blend in our needs to the programs. We are very satisfied.

Cons

We do not have much to add here as over all we are quite happy.

Excellent product, we have an expert that has learned the product and we rely on her for most of our support but the help feature allows us to look up how to do things without relying too heavily on our expert.

There are so many features it takes time to learn it.
