Compare property management software for daily work — Hostaway vs Hostfully Property Management Platform vs Lodgify

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.

Hostaway: what to consider

Ask for a quote with the modules and links you need. Check direct-booking fees; the published details conflict. To cancel a Booking.com or calendar-link booking, start on the original booking site. Read the Hostaway profile for its plans and requirements.

Hostfully Property Management Platform: what to consider

Ask which extras your quote includes. Open API, Digital Guidebooks and smart-device services cost extra. InboxAI drafts replies for review. Do not treat those drafts as messages sent on their own. Read the Hostfully Property Management Platform profile for its plans and requirements.

Lodgify: what to consider

Choose the tier for your work. Professional adds custom message rules. Ultimate adds tasks, photo checklists and owner statements. Check payment and refund rules for each booking channel. Read the Lodgify 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 Hostaway, Hostfully Property Management Platform 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.

Will a Hostaway custom iCal link update my nightly rates?

No. That calendar link syncs open and blocked dates. It does not send rate changes, listing text or amenities. The booking details it brings in depend on the source. These limits are for custom iCal links. Hostaway’s direct software links to booking sites work differently.

Does Hostfully’s base software include Digital Guidebooks and smart-device tools?

Do not assume both are in the base plan. Hostfully lists Digital Guidebooks and smart-device tools as add-ons. Ask for a quote that names the services you need. Check their setup costs and scope apart from the main property software.

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.
