Avis clients sur OwnerRez

By far the best channel manager and PMS for the money!

Commentaires : Excellent! I'm so glad I found it, it has really solved all my problems and for the price, it is comparable in cost to many of the other sites and less expensive than quite a few of them.

Avantages :

OwnerRez works really great. It's SO robust and has so many features! I'm very pleased with it - I've looked at a dozen different systems and did a test run of about 4 of them. None could do what OwnerRez does - it allowed me to do several functions I was unable to do in the other systems. And a HUGE PLUS: the customer support is amazing. They reply very quickly (business hours) and are extremely helpful.

Inconvénients :

It takes quite a bit of time to get set up in the beginning - but that is going to be the case with EVERY good PMS or channel manager. Once you get it set up, it's a breeze to use. Just know and expect to put some time at the beginning.

Unprecedented Efficiency with OwnerRez Property Management Software

Commentaires : I can't help but gush about the incredible functionality and effectiveness of the OwnerRez Property Management software. As an avid user, I have found the software to be extremely user-friendly and easy to set up, even for those who may not be very tech-savvy. OwnerRez truly simplifies property management by automating and streamlining a vast array of necessary tasks, making it a one-stop solution for all property management needs.What truly sets OwnerRez apart from its competitors is the company's constant drive to improve. They have displayed an unwavering commitment to listening to user feedback and continually refining the software based on their customer's needs and preferences. On multiple occasions, they've reached out to me, offering ways to enhance my user experience or to adjust settings to fit my unique needs better.The technical support offered by OwnerRez is exceptional. Every time there's been an issue or concern, their team has responded promptly, helping me resolve the problem with minimal downtime. This attentiveness and dedication to client satisfaction truly speak volumes about their commitment to their customers.However, what truly solidifies my trust in OwnerRez is their stellar communication and transparency. A prime example of this was the unfortunate program crash that occurred during the recent Christmas/New Year holiday. Despite the challenging circumstances, OwnerRez kept users up-to-date with the situation, reassured us of their efforts, and

Avantages :

User-Friendly: The OwnerRez software is extremely user-friendly and straightforward to set up, making it accessible to all, regardless of their technological know-how.Continual Improvements: OwnerRez's commitment to regular updates and enhancements based on user feedback ensures that the software stays relevant and continues to meet the needs of its users effectively.Proactive Communication: They are proactive in reaching out to users with suggestions for improvement or adjustments, demonstrating a genuine interest in providing a better user experience.

Inconvénients :

Limited Color Coding: One drawback of OwnerRez is the limited options for color-coding properties. For users managing multiple properties, enhanced color segmentation could provide a more intuitive and efficient visual organization system.Pricing: Over time, the pricing model for OwnerRez has seen an increase, which may be a deterrent for some users. Despite the extensive functionality and quality service it offers, the increased cost may be a concern for those operating within a tighter budget.

OR- great software, a lot to learn!

Commentaires : great for channel management... experience is good... wish I had someone to call when I cant find things even using the help feature... sometimes trying to find things I cant seem to come up with the correct verbiage...

Avantages :

features are good... functionality is good for what I need...

Inconvénients :

I find it hard to adjust things... there are so many layers to the system, I cant always find what I am looking for... there is no one to call when that happens... getting an email response can take quite some time...

it works but needs a lot of improvement

Avantages :

The system works that it is important and their pricing it is competitive something that I appreciate but the system needs a lot of improvement

Inconvénients :

I would love to get hear by OwnerRez. We have problems because we can't get response from customer support. They are telling us that the problem is our something that it is not and every time we need something we got no answer. I would like to SPEAK with them but they don't even provide a phone number to users ( you can imagine) , also many promised things are not complete . I would like to tell all of this directly to them but it is impossible. Maybe once you put this kind of " reviews" they can hear you

Peace of Mind at Dragonhead Retreat

Commentaires : Just wish I had found OwnerRez in my first year of having vacation rentals. Their common sense, timely tools and communiques to inquiries, booked guests, etc means I can tend to my other work, home, family... life.

Avantages :

I tried other products, wasting time, energy & $. Finding OwnerRez was such a relief. I can tell it was designed & implemented by professionals who had "been there/done that" as it is so logical. The sample tools, policies, communiques, etc were well thought out and easy to adjust to my use.

Inconvénients :

Not yet. I ask for help when I can't figure something out and OR reps reply quickly. They follow-up, to ensure any issue is ironed out.

Best One I found

Avantages :

East of use. I came from another program that was not user friendly

Inconvénients :

No maintenance features. No customer service number

Robust system with amazing support

Commentaires : I recommend OwnerRez to every property manager I meet. Enough said.

Avantages :

It covers everything I need it to do. They're always adding more features. Customer service is timely and knowledgable.

Inconvénients :

Because it's so robust, it can be overwhelming to get started. But their videos, and more importantly, customer service is second to none. A rep spent hours with me getting things set up in the beginning, and I will never forget how much I appreciated and valued that help.

Back to business!

Commentaires : Nirvana! I honestly was so relieved the day we went live with 43 listings. The support, functionality of the software, the website ….. all above an beyond. I literally lost 2 years of my life with GUESTY trying to make their solution work.

Avantages :

We spent 2 PAINFUL years trying to make the MYVR to GUESTY transition work until we finally found OwnerRez and transitioned in 2 months with their amazing support team and I am overwhelmed with how EVERYTHING WORKS and now we can stop spending endless hours on our technology solutions and get back to the business of managing our properties and serving our guests and owners.

Inconvénients :

Such a minor issue but we need owner generated reservations to be passed to Breezeway as a reservation and not just a block of time.

Easy and Intuitive

Commentaires : The experience has been excellent. I am very happy that I moved to OwnerRez.

Avantages :

I find OwnerRez to be very intuitive for me to use. After a couple weeks, I really felt like I could navigate and accomplish everything necessary to run my business.

Inconvénients :

I wish there was a unified mailbox so that I can see all messages in the same place. I also need better messaging integration and notifications with Vrbo communications.

OwnerRez is Great!

Avantages :

It's easy to use and the customer service is top notch.

Inconvénients :

I really can't think of anything bad to say.

Dont Sleep on OwnerRez. Highly recommend.

Commentaires : I couldn't be happier. It's a great product with great customer support at a fair price. To me, this is a must-have as a vacation rental operator.

Avantages :

I have yet to find a feature that's "missing" from OwnerRez. Everyday it feels like I find a new feature and/or use for the software. It really does everything I need it to with other features that I didn't even know I'd want until I discovered and used them. Their customer service is absolutely wonderful. Every question asked is responded to quickly and in detail.

Inconvénients :

It's ugly. Truly this is a non-issue as a user, and one that shouldn't stop anyone from selecting OwnerRez to manage their vacation rentals. But the marketer in me knows that if this software was a little more aesthetically pleasing and intuitive, they'd secure more new users.

Incredibly Powerful

Commentaires : OwnerRez support has been amazing--I've clogged their inbox many times while setting up and they not only get back to me lightening fast, but they look at my account and suggest other things I can do next.

Avantages :

Starting out I went with a very simple property management software to avoid overwhelm, but quickly outgrew the simplistic platform and wanted more robust features and functionality. OwnerRez has that in spades--but it's not complex, just robust and extremely thoughtful.

Inconvénients :

Waiting for VRBO messaging integration but other than that, zero complaints.

Perfect software for a Vacation Rental Owner Manager

Commentaires : A little over a year before VRBO was purchased by Expedia I had ventured into the vacation rental market with just one property. At that time 95% of my bookings came via VRBO, with the remaining 5% coming from Airbnb. The first year was very good. When ownership of VRBO transferred, my business dropped by nearly 70% and customer support became essentially non-existent. In my frustration with being subject to the whim of large corporations, I was determined to create a simple way for guests to book directly with me. I knew this would mean I needed a way to manage my calendar, present rates and allow online booking. For nearly a week I researched various vacation rental management platforms before deciding OwnerRez was the best fit. OwnerRez was fantastic, they gave me all kinds of tips on how to build my website, how to set-up a merchant account and how to configure OwnerRez to accurately reflect my intentions. Since onboarding with them I have watched them continually improve their platform, adding more capabilities, simplifying processes and generally adapting to the evolving vacation rental marketplace. Through it all, their interface has remained about the same and their amazing customer support hasn't changed a bit. Thanks to OwnerRez, my vacation rental is no longer dependent on large booking sites, though I do still take bookings via Airbnb and VRBO. More than 50% of my business comes directly through my website. I cannot recommend OwnerRez highly enough!

Avantages :

OwnerRez software is incredibly easy it is to integrate with a website. Thanks to this software, my guests can check availability, get quotes, book, and check reviews collected from several sights and right on my website. I've never had an issue with my website not performing correctly or with incorrect information being presented to my guests. For those who are curious about what the guest interface looks like on a self-built website take a look at TheRedwoodRetreat.com. All dynamic information on this website is provided through and controlled by my OwnerRez account. I have only the most basic layman's knowledge of web design, software interface and computer technology in general, yet I was able to build my own website through which guests can book directly with me. Beyond supporting website integration, OwnerRez has flexibility in almost all aspects of control, from rates and length of stay to seasonality and custom integrations with commercial booking sites such as Airbnb and VRBO. Their custom e-mail templates offer endless possibilities for creating great guest interactions, notifying third parties. I even use them to send myself reminders to give guests special offers when there are short gaps in my calendar. OwnerRez is constantly making improvements to adapt to the ever-changing vacation rental marketplace. Their help articles and customer support are insightful and provide step-by-step processes for some of the more complicated aspects of set-up.

Inconvénients :

There are still more features on OwnerRez than I actually use. This is not a 'con', but it is critically important to take the time to understand how you are supposed to do what you are trying to do when using OwnerRez. The vast flexibility of the program means there is plenty of room for user error. In most cases a warning will present if you create a clear conflict. But if you make an error in your rates and don't catch it, you may be giving a lucky guest a great deal without knowing it. OwnerRez has done a great job of providing well written, easy to follow help articles. My technique for making sure I don't create problems for myself is to search the help archive for articles regarding what-ever it is I want to do and read them carefully before diving into my project. There is one area I'd like to see improved: Currently the financial reports provide great information and flexibility. However, they have no way to capture the credit card processing fee's I pay through my merchant account. Providing an integration with merchant accounts which allows credit card processing fees to be captured would bring this area of reporting up to the outstanding standard OwnerRez has already set.

The most valuable resource I have in vacation rental management

Commentaires : Exceptional - the videos and tutorials were helpful in setting up and becoming initially familiar with the software. The customer support team filled in the blanks anywhere I got stuck or lost. I became well versed in how to work all aspects of the software fairly quickly which is a testament to its user-friendly interfact.

Avantages :

It is nearly impossible to list all the features about Owner Rez that I feel I could not (and certainly would not want to) live without. It is the single most important tool that I use in managing my two properties plus the five additional properties I manage for friends. I utilize about 80% of the software so it is exceptionally cost-effective for me considering all it does to save me time and to provide excellent communications and customer service to my guests. I have recommended it to hundreds of other owners and have personally set up many who wanted to use it but were daunted by the idea of getting started. It is logical, fast, thorough and the customer service I receive in the few instances I've gotten "stuck" trying to do something has been incredibly fast.

Inconvénients :

I wish there was a way to send automated texts to guests using my own cell phone number for replies rather than having to use a 3rd number that populates back to the software only. It's impractical for me to have to check the software for replies vs the replies coming into my phone. So I still handle my texts to guests manually.

Best customer support ever!

Commentaires : My biggest business problem is, what's going on right now, today? The different screens I have at my fingertips helps me keep my pulse on what is happening today, tomorrow and next week.

Avantages :

I love what this software does for me. The daily tracking and the ease of having the information I need right at my fingertips. The customer support is second to none. I'm learning more and more as I dive into it and there are so many things that OwnerRez anticipated and already have in the software. The customer service has been awesome and very responsive. I'm not techy but they help me through each little road block I hit.

Inconvénients :

Granted, there is a learning curve as with any software. So, my own frustration was my biggest enemy. I quickly asked for help when I was lost and always quickly received a response.

If you're an Owner/Host, this is by far the best property management product on the market

Avantages :

The most important first step in managing the Guest experience is removing the "middle man", and that's hard to do in the short-term rental business. Yet that seems to be exactly what has been driving the OwnerRez team as they have developed their software (and service). OwnerRez enables you, the Owner/Host, to take greater control of the Guest Experience from beginning to end. There's still a lot for you to do beyond that to ensure a great Guest experience, but this particular aspect of the the OwnerRez value proposition is pure gold to Owner/Hosts looking to deliver a great experience for their Guests.

Inconvénients :

The feature set is so extensive and so robust that I have yet to find anything lacking.

The absolutely best software for vacation rental owners to manage bookings, emails, etc.

Commentaires : My experience has been better than I expected. Because I am not very computer savvy, I really appreciate their suggestions and links to where I need to go.

Avantages :

Anytime I have a question and contact OwnerRez I hear back from them very quickly. They always answer my question, but also make suggestions for things they notice on my site with them that could use some tweaking. I love that because I am with OwnerRez I am able to require accidental damage insurance for all bookings, regardless of where they originate from. Without OwnerRez I would not have been able to do that since Inhave only 2 vacation rentals.

Inconvénients :

There is nothing.in I don’t like. It has done everything and much more than I expected.

Vacation Rental - Customer Service

Commentaires : We recommend OwnerRez to other vacation rental hosts who use multiple booking platforms.

Avantages :

It can grow with us a vacation rental business. We currently do not accept direct payments or have our own website, but we can expand to those when we are ready. We can post and coordinate multiple channels. We can share several calendars with our cleaners and maintenance contractors in an easy calendar format.

Inconvénients :

The initial setup is cumbersome. OwnerRez is a powerful software that must be set up correctly from the initial posting of your vacation rental. We decided to pay OwnerRez for additional support. We recommend that step for new users. It helped us to understand the full capabilities and scope of the software. The customer service is quick, responsive, and informative, and will work with you to get creative solutions. However, you cannot speak with someone on the phone. It must be done via email which is slower for quick questions.

Concierge Support Team is Amazing!

Commentaires : A bit on the stressful side - initially, I started with a focus to only launch a direct-booking website and somehow got off track with API integrations and experienced a serious problem with the PM API set up with VRBO, had that reversed, and then my VRBO listing was "broken" for almost a week. As of today, so far it seems we're back on track so I'm happy about that.

Avantages :

Simplifying my listings into one dashboard and most importantly the option for direct bookings that are as professional, if not more, than OTA's. Working with the concierge team, particularly [SENSITIVE CONTENT HIDDEN] has been incredible.

Inconvénients :

I'm still learning and getting familiar with all OwnerRez has to offer; at first I thought it was a bit clunky but as I said I'm still learning. I wish there were a feature to allow for messaging, e.g. similar to Smartbnb that pushes communication to guests in a reservation messaging thread via an app. This seems to be an industry standard, so I hope this functionality will be a future implementation. For now, I will maintain Airbnb guest communication primarily pushed through Smartbnb as all of my autoresponders are currently set up there and it works well. Plus, Airbnb "grades" hosts on their response times to guest communication via their messaging app / messaging thread.

Owner Rez has made my life much easier

Commentaires : I am trying to manage 4 short term rental properties and being able to see them all on one page makes my life much easier. Often clients will want 1-2 of my properties - now I can look in one place and answer them. Also, now I'm able to take direct bookings on my own website easily.

Avantages :

The most amazing thing about this software is the excellent, helpful and friendly (and fast!) customer support. I have four properties on Airbnb, Homeaway and VRBO, so getting all those calendars synched, templates written and triggers set up was daunting, but they were always there sometime instantly to help me. Having their app on my phone is a great new improvement too. I highly recommend this product.

Inconvénients :

The only thing missing is that I wish that my cleaners could log in and mark whether or not they can do a cleaning. However, the folks at Owner Rez said they are working on it! When that happens, it will be even better.

I am one of a family of 3 that uses OwnerRez to rent our 5 houses

Commentaires : OwnerRez makes the process of presenting a property to the potential customer in an easy way. And, we have our own site for presenting our houses, showing availability, pricing and so on and, if a customer fills in their information, it goes to to OwnerRez.

Avantages :

OwnerRez was very easy to use. Also, when I had a problem or question, someone from OwnerRez contacted me quickly and solved the problem.

Inconvénients :

I like everything about OwnerRez software.

OwnerRez is great

Commentaires : There are just a ton of software options out there for vacation rental management (and it seems more all the time). I solidly and unabashedly recommend this software to any and all who ask my opinion, not just because the software works well and saves me time, but their responsiveness is fantastic. It feels more like a real partnership working with them.

Avantages :

Great value, especially for smaller operators like me. Customer service is immediate, personal, and helpful.

Inconvénients :

There are some integrations that are not yet implemented, but some also require a user to manage more than 5 properties (not an OwnerRez limit - an industry-wide threshold).

Exceptional support!!!

Commentaires : SUPER HAPPY!! Coming from Guesty, it has been a great experience overall!!

Avantages :

The impressive, timely support team. SO HELPFUL and inquisitive!! Their "How to" checklist is DO detailed, their online help feature, step by step, videos, SO detailed - I created my own website (ZERO experience) >>corporatecondocollection.com<< EASY EASY!!

Inconvénients :

Still within first few months and learning... Nothing yet I can give as a con...

Could not live with out this software! And literally the best customer service!

Commentaires : Overall nothing but positive experience, would highly recommend it to anyone with vacation rentals!

Avantages :

It's functionality is so thorough, they have literally thought of everything we need and it works so well. No glitches, no issues ever. I've been using it for almost 12 months and it's literally worked perfectly the whole time. It's also very cost effective. Considering how much functionality and the direct API's with the platforms and quickbooks and pricing tools etc it's very very cost effective!

Inconvénients :

There was a little bit of a learning curve in setting it up but their customer service is so incredibly helpful and responsive!

A real godsend!

Commentaires : I found this amazing system and I have been one happy camper ever since! OwnerRez has really streamlined my Scrapbooking Rental Property business in so many ways. I love the reports and the ease of use. Their customer service is out of this world! They helped me make the program work for my business by tweaking things on their back end. In a matter of just ONE DAY at that!!! They give you a true 30 day trial to use all aspects of the program too.

Avantages :

Ease of use, customer service, price and reports

Inconvénients :

I would like to be able to have more control and design options in the email templates. I'd like to put multiple photos in my welcome email.
