I share this to say:
- An RV that I've had listed on ALL the typical places, I've now added to all the places noted in the subject.
- I'll have another listed in a couple of weeks.
- I am actively building a 10-acre glamping ground and would love to continue using OwnerRez.
And before you say anything about Glamping Hub, they are apparently far too cool to have a 43' Luxury RV listed on their platform, much less a sweet retro camper. So, unfortunately, they simply cannot serve us.
All that said, I would very much like to see OR get on board with supporting these platforms that are part of this billion-dollar market. The truth is, there are other PMS solutions out there that seem to do a fantastic job of integrating with these platforms AND Airbnb, Vrbo, Booking, and the like—but I very much do not want to leave OR.
Perhaps if this request got some love, the team at OR would see the value in prioritizing these integrations.

Hi Doug,
We're always open to new integrations! Thing is, it's rare that OwnerRez writes the API to a new partner from this end. The vast majority of our integrations are written on the partner's end.
That said, if any of these channels were to reach out to our Partnerships team at partnerhelp@ownerrez.com to express an interest, we'd be more than willing to have a conversation with them.
I suggest reaching out to these channels to let them know there's a demand. If they hear it from enough OwnerRez users, they're more likely to reach out to us to determine if we're a good partner fit for them.
Hey Bri,
That's an understandable response, and respectfully, I think it's the easy stance for any software developer to take.
Could you imagine if human relationships worked the same? I think there would be considerably more single people than there are.
I digress...
My point is, OR has a captive audience regularly saying: "We love your product, and we would love to see an integration with X." That's data. For you. For them. Specifics that your team has and could take to prospective integrations and say: "We've had X number of people interested in an integration with your OTA. Wanna chat?"
Furthermore, in my experience, your response falls into the "not my problem to solve" category—to a dedicated and paid subscriber—the antithesis of leaning into serving your users. If that's the come from, why even have an entire section of a forum dedicated to feature requests?
I know the written word can be easy to misinterpret, so I will reiterate, this is all said with respect—my truth, and respect.
