Compare property management software for daily work — iGMS vs Lodgify 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.

iGMS: what to consider

Check PRO+ if you need owner statements. Ask which AI and translation tools your plan includes; published details differ. Calendar-link bookings can have less detail than direct links. Read the iGMS 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.

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 iGMS, Lodgify 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.

Why might an available Booking.com rate not send bookings to iGMS?

Check the rate-plan type. iGMS says only XML rate plans work with its Booking.com link. A non-XML plan may stay bookable without sending its bookings to iGMS. Ask Booking.com to confirm the mapping for every rate plan you sell.

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.

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.
