Manager Hospitality ### "Terrible PMS" 1.0 Overall Rating 1.0 1.0 Ease of Use 1.0 1.0 Features 1.0 1.0 Customer Service 1.0 1.0 Likelihood to Recommend 0/10 April 4, 2024 Visual Matrix is awful. It is very clear to me that Visual Matrix staff is writing the fake reviews for this PMS. Pros When it works, there are few issues with room inventory and 2 way communication. Cons System will go down. They will blame Azure "outage". Okay, so why are all the other countless services that rely on MS Azure not down? Anyway, there are so many other problems with Visual Matrix. The desktop version is effectively dead. They don't update it much. The cloud version has little errors and mistakes, including spelling errors for warning messages. I don't think VM hires the best web developers and their cloud PMS makes that obvious. Simple things like deleting inactive rate codes, that haven't been used in almost a decade, is impossible. The system for whatever reason lets you add room types, rate codes, employees, etc., but doesn't let you remove anything. This makes it an administrative nightmare to organize things. Only 1 person in their tech support team seems to be knowledgeable about the product. The rest of them are clueless and send incorrect replies to close tickets. Reasons for choosing Visual Matrix PMS Familiarity with product and difficulty in changing other aspects of our business to implement a new PMS Review source Non-incentivized review: any software user can leave a review for any product listed on our site.

General Manager Hospitality ### "Reliable Property Management System" 5.0 Overall Rating 5.0 5.0 Ease of Use 5.0 5.0 Features 5.0 5.0 Customer Service 5.0 5.0 Likelihood to Recommend 10/10 February 12, 2021 I am very satisfied with Visual Matrix because they listen to the customers feedback and are open to adding new features within their program to make it a "one stop shop" for staff. Pros Visual Matrix is very dependable and they seek to provide features that are important to their customers for instance they offer Point of Sale, Revenue Management, and important interfaces to streamline operation. Cons One thing I don't like is that they have yet to develop an integrated Contact Relations Management feature although they have acknowledged they are open to eventually developing this within their PMS.

JZ Jesse Z. general manager Hospitality ### "Overall happy" 4.0 Overall Rating 4.0 4.0 Ease of Use 4.0 4.0 Features 4.0 4.0 Customer Service 0.0 0.0 Likelihood to Recommend 7/10 January 28, 2021 Overall a positive experience. We have had a dsc exception for a year that hasn't been fixed. Pretty frustrating at times. Overall it is user friendly and reliable. Pros I find the day to day operations to be easy. i thought the software was slow when first using it, but after a hardware upgrade it runs quickly and consistently. Cons Small things...like being able to search for multiple characters on some screen and being able to only search by first letter on others. Also...the inability to click and drag the length of maintenance blocks. an easy win to fix this I would think?

Pros Visual Matrix is easy to learn with the video training provided. Training new staff members is a simple process. I have implemented this property management software at two properties now and our teams adapted quickly. Technical support is friendly and easy to contact. Cons Revenue management tools are not efficient when not a member of Best Western. having worked with Best Western and independent properties; there is a missed opportunity for independent properties to manage their rates and make the most of the tools provided.

Pros It's very userfriendly, almost everything on the main page. Cons In our hotel we have a sundry market and its a little difficult compare to opera. You have to do more steps in this software.

Hotel Manager Hospitality ### "Easy To Use Software - Great Customer Service!" 4.0 Overall Rating 4.0 4.0 Ease of Use 5.0 5.0 Features 4.0 4.0 Customer Service 5.0 5.0 Likelihood to Recommend 10/10 January 26, 2021 Overall, Visual Matrix is an easy to use program (compared to the others I have used in the past; Micros Fidelio, Opera). It is also a robust software in my opinion and provides the necessary functions in an easy to use format. We went from 'zero' to 'hero' in no time using this software for the first time back when we opened our first Best Western Plus property in 2019. I was in touch with \[SENSITIVE CONTENT HIDDEN\] the Implementation Coordinator over at Visual Matrix who helped us set up the software for our new property just a couple of months back. \[SENSITIVE CONTENT HIDDEN\] is courteous and very knowledgeable about the product he offers. He always took the time to answer my numerous questions and was always willing to explain the set up procedure every step of the way. He also helped coordinate other stakeholders. He really did go above and beyond and made the sign up process very easy. I must also applaud the Visual Matrix Technical Support team. They are also very responsive and willing to help each time we call in with any query. If an agent doesn't quite have the right answers to your questions, they politely ask if they can put you on hold and go in search of someone else who can help out. Keep up the good work guys! Pros It is quite easy to get around Visual Matrix. Each function is also easy to locate. The most impactful for me is the Front Office/Reservations function. I just like the way all the options are laid out at the top of the screen making navigation very easy and seamless. We take calls each day from guests wanting to book rooms and find out availability. You'll agree with me that there is the need to have a program that gives you the power to move from one screen to the other with the smallest number of mouse clicks. Visual Matrix integration with our existing business processes has been quite easy I must say. For instance, I have the power to work off two instances of the program simultaneously. This comes in pretty handy if I ever need to provide a guest with information without interrupting what I was doing on the first page. Now this is flexibility! Cons Lately, there has been the need for us to post voucher pre-payments for guests who haven't quite booked their stays yet on Visual Matrix. It has been quite a challenge handling such pre-payments on Visual Matrix and the question for me has been where to post such payments given that there is no booking to attach it to. I would appreciate it very much if the necessary function that would allow us to do this could be introduced. There also seems to be an integration issue between Visual Matrix and Intello our Guest WiFi provider that should be looked into. Our guests are still unable to connect to the hotel wiFi using their check in credentials (Last Name & Room Number).

I agree, the coordinator assigned to your account is a rockstar! I will have someone from our support team reach out to you regarding your interface and posting questions. Thanks again! AD Ashley D. General Manager Hospitality ### "A year into VM Cloud" 4.0 Overall Rating 4.0 4.0 Ease of Use 4.0 4.0 Features 3.0 3.0 Customer Service 4.0 4.0 Likelihood to Recommend 7/10 January 26, 2021 Cloud base is amazing and I love being able to log in from anywhere. Programing rates is very labour intensive and discounts are not as flexible as we would like. Pros Accessibility, love being able it from anywhere. Cons Training was very confusing at first even with the videos. I found that the demo was difficult because it was not reflective of how we would use our system. Our old PMS was great for training because it would let you practice with the system in real time without effecting it.

Pros It is easy to learn the basics, making it easy for new staff to catch on to simple daily tasks. Good visual set up, good short cut options. Basic problems are usually taken care of promptly by support. Cons There are areas of the reporting that are weak. Weather it is the timeframe that data can be accessed or the variation of information available in the reporting.

Cons I believe Visual Matrix could do more to update the program on a regular basis with suggestions from their users. I know this is something they are working on now more than ever.
