GetApp offers objective, independent research and verified user reviews. We may earn a referral fee when you visit a vendor through our links.
Our commitment
Independent research methodology
Our researchers use a mix of verified reviews, independent research, and objective methodologies to bring you selection and ranking information you can trust. While we may earn a referral fee when you visit a provider through our links or speak to an advisor, this has no influence on our research or methodology.
Verified user reviews
GetApp maintains a proprietary database of millions of in-depth, verified user reviews across thousands of products in hundreds of software categories. Our data scientists apply advanced modeling techniques to identify key insights about products based on those reviews. We may also share aggregated ratings and select excerpts from those reviews throughout our site.
Our human moderators verify that reviewers are real people and that reviews are authentic. They use leading tech to analyze text quality and to detect plagiarism and generative AI.
How GetApp ensures transparency
GetApp lists all providers across its website—not just those that pay us—so that users can make informed purchase decisions. GetApp is free for users. Software providers pay us for sponsored profiles to receive web traffic and sales opportunities. Sponsored profiles include a link-out icon that takes users to the provider’s website.

“She took the time to walk us through the entire setup process for our property listings and made sure everything was connected properly across all major booking platforms, including Airbnb, VRBO, and Booking.com.”
HH
Hans H.
Owner
“It helps prevent double bookings, keeps calendars updated automatically, and simplifies the entire management process.”
HH
Hans H.
Owner
“Unlike many other platforms that provide instant access, Hostaway requires you to move through several stages: an initial call with a sales representative, signing the paperwork, and then scheduling onboarding sessions. Because each step involves booking time with different teams, the full process took about two weeks.”
PS
Philip S.
Partner
Pros
“The software lets me create and customize leases from templates, which feels much more official than making something up myself. AND it saves the lease in my account with my edits, so that when I want to renew it I can just copy what I had last year.”
AE
Alyssa E.
Landlord
“The features are practical and save me time from screening tenants to tracking expenses, I feel like I have real control over the details.”
DD
Danielle D.
Owner
“The thing I liked least about Avail was that some of the leases did not seem to be as thorough as having a certified lease, but avail allows you to upload your own lease if you don't like the free options they provide.”
LT
Loan T.
Project Manager
Cons
“There were some integration issues with our current online booking platform that created some discrepancies which was troubling, although their tech support was quick in responding to the issue.”
Robin S.
Owner
“Some clunky features, some info not clear on what exports to which fields in the platforms, and some api limitations”
PH
Peter H.
Owner
“During our initial implementation, the system was not configured correctly, which caused availability to be displayed when the homes were actually unavailable.”
AH
Ashley H.
Property Manager
Cons
“It can get expensive if you are managing multiple properties because there is a fee for each unit managed, and if you don't cover the fee then the tenant will have to.”
MH
Michael H.
Owner
“Not ideal for managing a single property with people who are not great at jumping through multi-stage online processes.”
MM
Marc M.
scientist
“Emails receive no reply, and talking to someone is not an option.”
