Customer story
“I had multiple sessions with an onboarding specialist, [sensitive content hidden]. These sessions included setting up all of our listings across relevant channels and exploring all the features Hostaway offers. This included calendar sync, reservation management, smart locks, inbox integration with all channels, automated tasks like cleaning, Stripe setup for receiving payments, and creating our own website (which was very straightforward). Without the onboarding and walkthroughs with [sensitive content hidden], setting everything up would have been a daunting task. So far, everything syncs up well and on time!.”
Jonathan
Owner In Canada
Customer story
“I was very impressed since day 1 and how the kick off has been planned and managed. Very professional. The software is capable to do 90% of what you need and it is user friendly. The remaining 10% should be focused on what the property manager needs (based on country’s regulations).”
Jacky
Owner In Portugal
Customer story
“Hostaway offers more features and better functionality compared to other PMS programs we have used or looked at. Hostaway’s onboarding program is far better than the competition. Features that were critical for us: mobile app, ease of use, reporting, listing management.”
