| Properties | Pro is aimed at 10–50 listings, Scale at 50–200 and Enterprise at 200+. These are target ranges, not confirmed property limits. | Core lists unlimited listings and users. Paid Channel Manager is not included. Your bill depends on selected modules and licences for units and rooms. |
| Overview | Rentals United sends property data through channel connections and can work with PMS adapters. Our view: consider it if you know which gap in booking-site coverage you need to fill and have a PMS process that works with it. Avoid adding the same channels your tools already handle. Pro advertises 10-50 listings. This puts it near the larger end of our audience. We could not confirm a 1-9-listing offer. That does not prove smaller accounts are banned. We read guides and have not tested the product. | Zeevou offers API Channel Manager as a paid extra with its rental software. Free Core uses iCal calendar feeds. It does not include full API channel management for free. |

List your booking sites and the jobs each link must do. Rates, open dates, bookings and cancellations can follow different rules. Check those rules before adding a tool. Check whether the offer is a full suite, extra channel links or managed help.
Check that it fills a gap in your current tools. The listed offers target larger groups of rentals. An offer for a few properties was not confirmed. Ask about fit and extras before switching. Read the Rentals United profile for its plans and requirements.
The paid Channel Manager is separate from free Core calendar links. Check rooms, units, modules and channel setup. OpenAPI guides do not prove that every plan lets you build custom software links. Read the Zeevou profile for its plans and requirements.
Explore all booking-site management tools, what booking-site connections can cover, booking-site services and channel managers to continue your shortlist.
Decide which system controls rates, open dates and listing text. Check the sync mode before editing both sides. One system may own prices while another owns photos. Write down where your team should make each change.
Match each home to the right listing. Check future bookings and manual blocks, then look at dates and prices on each booking site. Go far enough to inspect the offer, but do not complete a test booking unless you intend to buy it.
Rentals United says Airbnb can show that label even when Limited Sync is still in use. Check the actual mode in Rentals United’s Airbnb Property Settings. Do not change your workflow based only on the label in Airbnb.
One cause can be missing or invalid listing content. Zeevou says Check notifications shows what needs fixing. Photos may be too large, or text too short. Fix the listed issues before the next sync attempt. Do not assume every failed link has the same cause.
