List the jobs you want to handle in one place. Check booking sites, guest messages, payments and staff access first. Then compare the plan and extras needed for those jobs. A long feature list will not show whether your booking sites and work rules are covered.

Guesty Pro: what to consider

Ask for a full quote for the work you need. It should list setup, paid extras and booking-related charges. Check access terms before planning a custom software link. Read the Guesty Pro profile for its plans and requirements.

Lodgify: what to consider

Common questions

What should I test before switching to one of these tools?

Check future bookings, blocked dates and rate plans before the new system takes control. Then look at rates and fees on each booking site. A link marked connected does not prove that every booking or price rule moved across.

How should I compare the full setup for Guesty Pro and Lodgify?

List the main software and any extras on their own. Extras can include lock tools, guidebooks, paid modules and a team to answer guests. Ask which tasks your quote covers. Name the person who will do the work that remains. An inbox or task list does not do it all for you.

Does Guesty Pro’s inbox include a team to answer guests?

Do not assume so. The inbox is a tool for messages. Guest Communication Services is a separate add-on with a team to handle guest contact. Ask whether that service is in your quote and what work the team will cover.

Can I edit a reply suggested by Lodgify’s AI Messaging Assistant?

Yes. The assistant uses property details and the guest’s message to suggest a reply. You review it, make changes and send it. This differs from scheduled message templates, which can send at the times you set.
