        Compare tools for cleaning between stays — Cleanster vs EZcare vs Keepers

        Follow one booking from checkout to the next guest arrival. Check how it creates a job, who gets the task and how you see the result. Keep software fees separate from cleaning labor. If you need a local cleaner, confirm service in your area before choosing a tool.

        Cleanster: what to consider

        Check how booking imports reach the cleaning schedule. If you need a cleaner, check for help in your area. Ask about labor, booking and cancellation fees as well as the software price. Read the Cleanster profile for its plans and requirements.

        EZcare: what to consider

        Start with the checks and repairs you need to track. Look at how the plan handles forms, work orders and bills. Check any needed extras and outside service costs. Read the EZcare profile for its plans and requirements.

        Keepers: what to consider

        Check the calendar or property-software link. Make sure the job triggers fit your checkout process. If you need staff, check for local help and its cost as well as the software plan. Read the Keepers profile for its plans and requirements.

        Common questions

        What should I check before using Cleanster, EZcare and Keepers for cleaning between stays?

        Test what happens when a guest changes, cancels or books a stay at short notice. Check that the right person sees the job. Agree who checks for missing work and adds a job when needed. Linking a calendar does not settle who will do that.

        How should I check completed work with Cleanster, EZcare and Keepers?

        Choose the photos and tasks that matter for each home. Decide who checks them and who handles a problem. A task marked done in an app is not proof that a separate inspector checked the home.

        Where should I check the full cost of a Cleanster booking?

        Marketplace bookings add a $3 fee to the cleaner’s price. Paying your own cleaner through the app costs 5% plus $3 per booking. Check the full price before you confirm. The site does not say which dollar currency applies.

        Can EZcare cleaners report a problem while working?

        Yes. Staff can send notes and photos of a property issue through the mobile app. Decide who will read each report and arrange a repair. Reporting the issue is not the same as assigning or finishing the work.

        Is Keepers’ photo review the same service as its team inspections?

        No. Keepers lists AI photo review apart from quality checks by its team in the Enterprise service. Check which service your package includes. Ask how staff handle a flagged issue. Do not assume a photo review includes a team inspection.
