### "Great Product and Service!"

February 7, 2022

5.0

Exceptional, and the increase in revenue from the features that were set up and explained by Newbook has been great! Not only are the features easy to use and profitable, but the assistance to point out these new features and set up the new features are unheard of in the PMS we came from. Also the confidence and efficiency from staff at New book we dealt with made us very confident of implementing these new features.

Pros

Integration was surprisingly easy, and also easy to learn. It feels like someone is and has continually improved the program to for the users benefit. Support at time of switching was incredible and is still great! Dynamic pricing, the gateway and \[SENSITIVE CONTENT\] input was priceless

Cons

The only small con I can think of, is at time of integration we had a large amount of money in client accounts due to covid, and they did not move across ( I understand the complexities of integrating 2 different systems and bringing all data across.) We eventually manually added a credit note to client accounts, and in hind sight should have done this straight away, which would have allowed us to stop our subscription with RMS a month or so earlier

February 23, 2022

5.0

Pros

NewBook is pleasant to use as the support team are always willing to assist and the knowledge base and support wiki is at your fingertips for answers. The booking system is easy to use and teach, ease of rates change and accounting is a very important for reports. Newbook has many other features.

Cons

We did have issues with integration from our previous software but this was very minor.

Alternatives considered

Reason for choosing Newbook

Switched from

This software did not have our caravan sites on it and the old system was not being used in the correct capacity for accounting etc. prior to my employment.

### "Amazing!"

November 15, 2017

5.0

Pros

A very easy to use system that was very easy to implement and is great value for money. I love the fact that there are always updates, which means that Newbook are always ahead of the game when it comes to features. The support team are very friendly and know their stuff and the Wiki and support request features are all great. My favourite features that other systems do not offer is the read receipt of emails sent through the system and the feature suggestions. Once up and running, the direct connection with Airbnb will be

Cons

Direct connections are that are offered are very Australian based and do not fit into the London Hotel & Apartment sector.

### "I have been using Newbook for last three and half years. "

November 14, 2017

4.0

Better control, good reporting tailored to our needs.

Pros

Ease of use Flexible Modern Outstanding support from Chris, Lauren & Hannah Regular updates.

Cons

Booking engine not converting. Not up to date. Can't use modern widgets such as "Triptease" etc. Most other PMS providers offer this service. Limited direct OTA connectivity. Only channel manager available is "Siteminder". Need to have others. Most updated geared towards caravans and holiday parks rather than independent London hotels. Review/ guest feedback page extremely outdated.

We have added several OTA direct connections this year, including Airbnb and are looking forward to adding more next year.

January 7, 2022

Pros

Extensive reporting ability, always adding new features. API allows custom integrations which is great.

Cons

I find configuring rates etc for channel manager connections is a bit fiddly and not especially well optimised for mobile devices

### "Customer service at it's best"

May 4, 2022

5.0

Pros

Newbook is a fantastic way to manage bookings for my accommodation business. Although we are a small concern and use the basic features, we have explored the many tutorials which clarify features for bigger hotels with a large inventory of extra items and activities. Newbook even caters for long stay clients. Our travel agent bookings are well managed and the customer service is faultless. The training team are well versed in all aspects of the booking system and are friendly and professional. I would highly recommend Newbook to any hotel, irrespective of the size. It's money well spent for ease of mind.

Cons

The knowledge base was quite hard to navigate initially, but has been upgraded over the past month.

### "Newbook at Lakes Main Holiday Park"

September 29, 2022

5.0

We love it. The program is perfect for us to manage 20 plus cabins and camping sites. The support staff are always helpful and in a good mood. That's important because you feel like you can ask for help.

Pros

Newbook is very user friendly. Unlike some other programs, technical issues are minimal to none. I can train a new staff member how to use it very quickly. All your favourite functions are displayed and you can drop and drag to arrange the screen very simply anyway you like. Also - they offer ongoing training and new feature webinars.

Cons

I have not used it for Marketing to customer base as yet and this would be awesome if it's there.

Reason for choosing Newbook

I spoke to existing customers using RMS and even they suggested Newbook was the superior product. A fellow Holiday Park owner was moving from RMS to Newbook.

### "NewBook simplifies and automates daily tasks, allowing us more time to focus on our guests."

November 20, 2017

5.0

Pros

It's a user friendly system with multiple features we were able to instantly implement to help grow our business, in both revenue earned and customer retention. It's simplicity means our staff training can focus more on the customer experience than the tools we use. The support team are available when we need them, are prompt, efficient and friendly.

Cons

NewBook offers so much, it is a challenge to find time to implement every feature. To be picky, a more intuitive revenue management system would be fantastic, though what it does have still beats anything we've used in the past. The accounting side can also be tricky if not set up correctly from the outset.

Excited to work on marketing strategies and customer feedback via the platform.

Pros

Newbook has an impressive amount of features. It's quite exciting to know you can do so much on this platform.

Uploading of properties is quite time consuming. It would be great to learn more about this and how we can reduce the time it takes.

Coming in-build with a channel manager, direct messaging, invoice forwarding, group booking/management, survey template and analysis and accounting functions made this software handy. It encompasses a whole lot of functions that aid managing properties.

Increased accuracy of reporting, concise categories, increased ability to communicate with maintenance staff & residents

Pros

Ease of use, accuracy of data, ability to manage all areas from financial to maintenance improving communication between maintenance & office staff, increased communication to residents.

Cons

Lack of ability to 'drill in' from some reports , lack of customisation in some reports, cannot always go back & forth between original list (eg arrears) and bookings.

April 15, 2019

Initially they were good, but later sales people sold me expensive version but it was totally not value for money. Support system is very bad specially when you have issues.It is not supported by lot of websites.

Pros

Payment system integration, and taking payment is very easy

Cons

Support very poor , very complex to use , do not provide connection to lot of websites

Hi Prasad, It is disappointing to see that you are posting this incorrect review of NewBook on Capterra. Our team provided solutions to all of your needs and complex requirements. Our system can be either easy or complex depending on how complex your individual property/rate setup is. As a property management system NewBook has a large number of OTA's directly connected such as Expedia Group, Hotels.com, Booking.com, AirBnB, HomeAway, TripAdvisor, Trip.com Agoda, Lido and many others but we never promoted to have hundreds like a separate channel manager would, i.e Siteminder (which we also support). If posting a bad review is an attempt to avoid paying your outstanding bills I can assure you we do not operate that way and are confident potential clients will see the large number of positive reviews and know we really do take care of our clients and offer top notch service and support.

Pros

As a new manager within the accomodation sector, the support and guidance received from all New Book staff has been outstanding. The system is easy to navigate and has reduced much administration stress so that our focus can be aimed at the customer experience!

Cons

Streamlined bookings compared to our old system. Reasonable reporting system, updates as a result of consumer feedback

Pros

Easy to use for ourselves and the customer, constantly being updated as a result of feedback, no double accounting any more! Great developers, very approachable.

Cons

Some features are a bit hard to use and understand, e.g. gift certificates. Specials have to have their own tariff e.g. Pay/Stay deals

Newbook staff are fabulous, prompt & reliable. They are always chirpy & very bubbly on the phone. They know their stuff & if they can't help with a question, they will find out & get back to you.

Pros

What I like most about the software is the dashboard & having favourites to click on.

Cons

I least like, there is so much we can do in the program, it gets a bit overwhelming to find everything.

Reason for choosing Newbook

Because we used Newbook in our previous holiday park & we loved it.

### "After spending a LOT of time choosing and two awful experiences prior to Newbook -It's been a dream!"

November 20, 2017

5.0

So much time saved! The automatization is amazing; takes time to set up, but the fact that you can set criteria for it to either do or not do something based on what you have told it is fab.

Pros

It's so easy to use. I love that you can build your own "screen views" with all of the elements you want to see as an individual.

Cons

I would prefer the calendar to be aligned (the dates look like they are in different places depending on the length of the property / apartment name) and it would be great if all one bedroom apartments were together despite locations.....

Easy to store our customers, taking away our old outdated system.

Pros

Easy search tools allowing us to quickly look up clients on the database, allowing us to maximise our customer service. love how you are able to personalise the whole system to make it yours.

Cons

when a task ends, it would be easier if a button came up allowing you to reset tasks with the click of a button for the upcoming week. when you change the lead to a customer, it would be better if you could change it back.
