We found that with other platforms, customer service was not always available (half-way around the world!), or not easily accessible. With FDA our personal contact is always available and helps solve issues practically immediately. FDA nearly eliminated repetitive and duplicate tasks across many platforms, freeing up literally hours of time for more important tasks. We love it!

Pros

Front Desk Anywhere (FDA) is simple, easy to use, and has all the pro features you are looking for to manage a vacation rental business of any size or shape. Features are extensive; reports will give you everything you are looking for and then some. FDA seamlessly and easily integrates with other booking platforms. Access can be granted in various capacities for employees, etc. FDA simply revolutionized our business, pulling everything together in a single platform. Customer service is impeccable, reliable and relatively immediate. Highly recommended!

Cons

Set up can be a little cumbersome, but that was simply due to now knowing what to ask. Our personal contact was available to assist with every step of setup, and any questions ongoing. There is a bit of a learning curve with all the features, but lots of resources are provided.

Reasons for choosing Frontdesk Anywhere

Pros

We've been using Frontdesk Anywhere for several years and we are extremely satisfied. We've made our choice after trying several alternatives and FDA was the best option. The ease of use is very important and reduces the training time for new recruits and the possibility of mistakes.

Cons

Truly, all the features we need are there and easy to find and use.

Pros

The software works well, was relatively easy to integrate with our website for online bookings and also with Expedia for direct bookings from them and Tripadvisor. It's easy to make multiple prices for various dates, Christmas, summer, rainy season, etc.

Cons

It would be nice to have different language support in the admin section. We operate in Costa Rica where the local language is Spanish, and some of our employees struggle with it a bit.

We are a small, seasonal mom & pops motel in northern Michigan. Frontdesk Anywhere meets all of the needs of our seasonal business; finding a good seasonal program had been a challenge. The agents from Frontdesk are always very responsive and our reservations have increased more than significantly since our partnering with them. The program is very user friendly and meets all of our needs!!

Pros

Ease of use Agents very responsive and knowledgeable Good reporting system

Cons

Does not yet integrate/require all information from guests or online travel agencies

Reasons for choosing Frontdesk Anywhere

Frontdesk is one of the few products that can accommodate our seasonal ratings. Open six months and our rates start low, climb and then then lower again, on a bell curve. We have five room types. Frontdesk manages to accommodate all of those needs easily.

I have been using FDA for 2 years. It’s super functional, user friendly and effective for us as Small hotel. Reports are well organised and helpful for analysis. Yield function in PMS is also help us with better ADR and revenue. Support team is also helpful.

Some reports are too complex for front end user.

Very good overall experience. In six years I've had maybe three issues with the program where I had to contact Support via email. Their response time was always fast, once within the hour and recently within 4 hours but they called with a report and asked for additional information on the problem..

Pros

It's very simple and intuitive to use. The reservation layout is easy to read and I like the ability to quickly look at reservations for a few days ahead or up to a month in advance. We serve cancer patients undergoing treatment, family members of critical care patients, medical students and medical staff. The program gives us the ability to distinguish different types of rooms for our various guests and quickly change schedules as needed.

Cons

There are so many options for generating reports that I sometimes have trouble deciphering the titles and finding what I need. Once I figure out what it is it's simple....

Overall I have used, Lightspeed, Cloudbeds, Maestro, and some other PMS, however FDA was the most easy to use.

Pros

What I like most about Frontdesk Anywhere is that, its cloudbased so you can litterally pull this up on your phone and check in a guest or charge them for a retail item. I also like how easy it is to learn, this will be very helpful when training as that will take up most of your time. However with FDA, its so easy to pick this up quickly, even if you havent used a PMS system before you will be able to understand this software.

Cons

I wish there was a how to guide book, not all PMS systems have it and ive had to make some for other PMS in the past, however FDA does have a vast variety of help pages for each specific function. Just saying would be nice to have a welcome to FDA guide book and start from the basics.

We have great experience with working with fda.

Pros

The best thing about FDA is how user friendly it is.

Cons

The only thing would be the loading issue on rooms that have been in the system for multiple months. Really nothing else.
