GuestTracker Software Pricing & Features

Pros
It is easy to navigate and train. The customer support is great and the manual is precise. The reservation taking process is not complex.

Cons
I think there are some features that could be better. They recently changed the discount to a percentage versus a dollar amount which was easier to use. I wish that you could merge profiles together easily as there are so many duplicates in my system it is a bit frustrating. Sometimes something could be easy but the system does not allow such as reinstating a reservation you have to go back in and do an entire other one. When you cancel a reservation you can't get back to reinstate it or to reprint the cancellation letter. Sometimes there are glitches in the system and then you can't go back and have to cancel it or check it out and start over again. There isn't to my knowledge a way to search by reservation number. I wish it was easier to search in different reports.

Pros
I like that it allows for automatic owner statement creation, tape chart functionality and that we can post charges for any billing date, even if that date has already past. This is extremely helpful if a charge was missed being posted or posted incorrect. There is no need to balance over multiple days you can just go in and correct the mistake.

Cons
The reporting features could be improved: Ex. I would be great to be able to forecast revenue per unit instead of unit type like the history displays. This would be useful to know that we are on track to provide appropriate revenue towards each unit owner. The accompanying guest function would be more helpful it when you insert an accompanying guest it registers as stay and creates a history for future return stays (even if they are not returning with the same primary guest). Having more room for Guest Notes. There is not enough room to create enough notes on the guest profile. This is important so that in the future I know if a guest has experience issues with us and the detail or if they caused issues and the details. etc.

Pros
Coming from a very old, out dated version, the advanced features on the new system are exciting. I adore things like entering the zip & it tells you the city & sending confirmations with 1 click.

Cons
Again, coming from an older version, the downside was just learning a new system. I was accustomed to all reservation being on one screen. While the new system has future reservations, current guests & past guests are on 3 different screens. Not deal breaker but just a change that took getting used to.

Pros
The ability to report on our business in the manner that we need; the ability to customize certain aspects of the software reporting features. Also, the ability to customize the property is helpful for reservations personnel.

Cons
There are a few reporting features that we are not able to customize to our operations, however, our operations are significantly different on the billing side than a standard accommodation business.
