Compare property management software for daily work — Hospitable vs Lodgix vs Uplisting
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.
Hospitable: what to consider
Match the plan to your guest messages and work tasks. Owner statements and the owner portal need Mogul. Check direct-booking fees and any extra charges for pricing tools or smart devices. Read the Hospitable profile for its plans and requirements.
Lodgix: what to consider
Match the property-count plan with any owner or accounting extras you need. Issue refunds in the payment gateway; Lodgix records them. Check booking imports before moving your daily work. Read the Lodgix profile for its plans and requirements.
Uplisting: what to consider
Check how bookings enter the system. Imported iCal bookings are read-only. They cannot do the same message, ID-check or payment tasks as direct links. Compare the plan with any needed extras. Read the Uplisting profile for its plans and requirements.
Explore all property management options, how to choose property management software, how to plan a software switch to continue your shortlist.
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 Hospitable, Lodgix and Uplisting?
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 a Created smart-lock code in Hospitable mean the guest can enter?
No. Created, Visible and Active are different states. A code can exist before the guest can use it. Check its status and active dates before sending entry steps. Hospitable’s smart-lock feature is for Professional, Mogul and Legacy plans with a supported lock.
Will connecting Vrbo to Lodgix bring in all my old bookings?
Do not assume so. Lodgix says to put existing Vrbo bookings on its calendar as blocks or manual bookings before you connect. Its guide says Vrbo does not offer an import for past bookings. Check the calendar before turning on the link.
Will Uplisting send my cleaning fee and promotions to Booking.com?
No. Its setup guide says to enter cleaning fees and promotions in Booking.com’s host dashboard, called the extranet. They do not sync from Uplisting through this link. Check both there before guests book; other channels can use different rules.
