...native that best fitted my requirements
1. Speed - It is lightning-fast to use and makes a huge difference in your visitors' engagement and stickiness when a search feature is integrated on a page. 2. The way it integrates Wordpress websites is ideal for my needs and is unmatched by its competitors who have not at all thought things this way. 3. They thought about everything. It is difficult to f...
Customer Service is unbeatable
I discovered that we had accidentally signed up for 2 subscriptions and OwnerRez was able to mend the situation in less than 2 days. I love it!
I wish we could send mass emails to previous guests instead of exporting guest lists and manually emailing

Dear Legacy Users,
The time has come to talk about pricing. Yes that pricing - the price youpay OwnerRez to use our awesomesoftware.
Back when we started OwnerRez in 2009, per-booking pricing made a lot of sense for us and for you. You generally did all of your bookings yourselves, through OwnerRez, and blocked off times were typic...

Don't just take our word for it. iGMS users continue to switch to OwnerRez for unmatched support and industry-leading, lightning-fast connections with over 20 vacation rental channels. Here's what a few real users have to say about iGMS:

...e on Google. I have my own website with widgets being used and have no plans to go to OR Hosted.
Am I understanding this correctly:
1. If I pay for hosted site, I can be part of the Beta.
2. I pay for it but I do not have to set up anything or use a OR hosted site....or are you saying I have to have a separate website (OR hosted) just for reservations?
Thanks

...als only apply to certain months of the year (our off season April-Dec.)
I see where I can seet prioritization in the back end, but I don't understand what number to plug in there. Would I plug in a 2, for instance, if a monthly rate takes priority over a weekly rate?

I've been dabbling with FB ads for a month or so. Here's my experience:
1 - Mondays produce the most traffic to my website
2 - One should be very specific in their post to generate traffic
3 - I've found that my cost per website click was about .50
4 - Make sure you "target" your audience by selecting interests, age groups and geography.
5 - Create an instagram acct for your page and link the 2 t...

So there is a theory that offering my 5 bedroom townhome also as a 2-3 bedroom during the offseason, expands your reach I would be happy to rent it at less just to not have it empty. Like $150 instead of $250 or so a night. you can always lock 2-3 bedrooms so they d...
