Pros

“Etc. - Escapia connects with VRBO seamlessly which is our largest source of bookings and very well with our website which is our second largest source or bookings. ”

Mika G.

Owner Operator

“It ties in with the all Expedia products well and new software typically picks Escapia as one of the first PM management systems that they will API with.”

Lanier M.

Partner

“Being a small business owner and having to learn the majority of the 'nuts and bolts' in Escapia in order to run the business I will outline a few that I like about Escapia.”

Mika G.

Owner Operator

Pros

“Within "All Reservations" "Check In" reports, I wish it would show what the balance is, not just "Partially Paid" and the due dates, instead of having to completely open each reservation. ”

Barbara W.

Vacation Rental Manager

“I have been in Vacation Rentals for 30+ years, worked in many softwares and Kigo is by far the quickest and easiest to learn and teach someone to navigate to get daily task completed. Once you learn the basics of where to find what, it makes the "back side" of the software more understandable.”

Barbara W.

Vacation Rental Manager

“the ease of creating a reservation and sending a quote and the link to pay”

Katty P.

Owner

Cons

“The reporting feature is slow and struggles to pull large amounts of historical data at once.”

Jessica E.

Operations Manager

“The only challenge with Escapia is occasional software updates that may affect functionality and existing data. ”

Carla A.

Vacation Property Management - Owner

“The review section, it doesnt allow me to send reminders or review requests.”

Jennifer C.

General Manager

Cons

“I was genuinely shocked at how aware they are this software doesn't work, but bill you so far above and beyond what you signed and agreed to. When you question it, expect to be hung up on.”

Matthew R.

CEO

“All the photos online are not display as original size and quality and give a very poor basic kigo website”

Katty P.

Owner

“Tracking for ads doesn't work well because we can't put a tag on the check-out page.”
