Introduction

The short-term vacation rental industry is booming, and research shows that demand in this industry will continue to grow into 2030. 

Owning a vacation rental property is a great way to make extra income, but a lot goes into creating an unforgettable guest experience worthy of a five-star review. Whether you’re a property owner or manager, guests have high expectations and there’s lots of competition out there. 

But, managing properties at scale requires a large tech stack. Property and revenue managers need to build teams that are great at understanding and using the software necessary for proper management and improved growth. 

It’s a broad landscape that businesses need to know, so we created this industry software map as a guide for property and revenue owners and managers in the short-term rental and vacation rental space. Whether it’s a specialist or your entire team, you’ll want to not only know the software types but also start growing your expertise so you can take advantage of their time and cost-saving opportunities.

Whether you’re looking for dynamic pricing software, ancillary services tools, or revenue management, we’ll walk you through every aspect of the vacation rental business and show you the tools available to improve your business’ performance.

PMS (Property Management Software)

What is property management software?

Property management software (PMS) is any app, system, or program that helps manage rental properties and organize business tasks. Those business tasks could range from managing your bookings and availability, to maintaining any insurances and regulations you may have on your rental properties, and generally managing your guests’ stay and experience. 

PMS can offer extremely expansive features, including (but not limited to):

  • Inventory Management
  • Calendar Management
  • Guest Communications
  • Guide Books
  • Direct Bookings
  •  Upsells
  •  Channel management
  • Accounting
  • Integrations

Because of the many moving parts of managing a rental, this helps organize them into one singular platform.

Why they matter

PMSs are helpful for teams and individuals that want to sell their listings on multiple vacation rental sites like Airbnb, VRBO, Expedia, HomeAway, Booking, Google, and more. Instead of building a listing for each site, a PMS will help you create and manage your listings across all sites. 

PMS is the nerve center of your business and incredibly important to get right. They are the data center for your listings, the largest software category you will see on this list, and the “hub” for your business.

With the wide array of features and functionalities that are offered by property management software, there’s no question investing in one will make your life easier–and help increase revenue while reducing management costs.

Best tools to use

Before deciding on which system to use, it’s essential to identify what your business or properties need. Since so many tools are on the market, we put together a list of property owner favorites.

  • Avantio: Avantio offers an array of property management tools and services specifically for the vacation rental industry. Their features include a unified inbox for all rental inquiries, easy check-ins, a simple payment system to automate revenue, and postings on multiple websites at once. The platform works with Airbnb, Booking.com, and VRBO. Their packages include training and support, ensuring the platform best suits your needs. Plus, they don’t charge a commission on your bookings. 
  • Barefoot: Barefoot understands that each rental property is different, which is why they customize their services to your needs. Their clients include vacation rentals, corporate housing, long-term rentals, and property owners, making them a diverse platform. Their software provides a live booking engine with all the information a web visitor needs to make a renting decision.  
  • Guesty: Guesty aims to help property managers better manage their portfolio of rentals. The goal is for their clients to save time on the tasks it takes to manage a rental property. They offer a multi-calendar and task-assigning app that helps improve guest communications, manage property listings across multiple platforms, and optimize market pricing. The main selling point for Guesty is the ease of communication with guests. If you’re struggling with this, Guesty may be a good tool to add to your kit.
  • Hostaway: Hostaway’s tagline is “an end-to-end solution for the professional short-term property manager.” It automates many of your tasks and creates a centralized location to manage all your bookings on one platform. One central calendar synchronizes your listings so they all have consistent information. They also integrate with Wheelhouse, which means they take advantage of dynamic pricing strategies for their bookings.  
  • Hostfully: Hostfully offers similar services to Hostaway: a central dashboard for all your bookings, communication, and calendaring. They also offer digital guidebooks to assist you with your branding. The right branding can help elevate your listing and create more drive from web users. If you find that creating your listings is one of your more complex tasks, Hostfully can provide an easy set of tools to use.
  • LMPM: In addition to centralized booking information, LMPM also provides resources and tools to build your own WordPress site to manage all rental inquiries and move away from third-party platforms. If you feel motivated to develop your business, LMPM could have the resources you need.

Channel Management (CMs)

What they are

Channel managers help you sell your listings on the traditional channels (Airbnb, HomeAway, Booking, VRBO, etc.). But, they also help you sell on “meta” sites such as Google & Kayak, more specialized OTAs such as WhimStay, FabStayz, and many others. In fact, many CMs distribute to over 50 channels.

As teams professionalize, they may also go from selling on just a few channels to over 40 channels before eventually distributing on corporate sales channels and global distribution systems leveraged by hotels and airlines.

Why they matter

Channel managers are the distribution center for your listings, helping you sell rentals anywhere and set pricing strategies per channel. In general, selling on more sites will increase bookings and revenue. This means using a tool to help manage these bookings will help you stay consistent. 

In addition to distributing your inventory, many channel managers can help you adjust prices or create discounts across distribution channels. This can help you account for different booking fees or customer types based on the channel.

In the future, short-term rental inventory could be sold on any network or marketplace, like Facebook or Instagram. So while channel managers won’t help you with that today, they may look to add–or power–such functionality in the future.

Best tools to use:

  • Booking Pal: Booking Pal connects rental management to the top consumer travel websites in the world. They offer distribution capabilities such as myOptimize, a calculator tool that gauges listing quality and optimal channel placement, and myInquiry, providing a team of reservation experts to handle all guest communications. You can easily track your bookings while posting your listing on websites with extensive client reach. This is key if you want to publish your listings on all major booking websites simultaneously.
  • NextPax: NextPax works with over 100 booking channels, online travel agencies, meta-search engines, and more. You can connect, centralize, and synchronize all of your rental information to appear on various sites that will promote the most drive to your properties. The visibility of your rentals matters. NextPax allows you to create those listings on a diverse set of channels.
  • Octorate: Octorate is a cloud-based platform that helps manage large and small properties. This means the platform uses no computer storage and can be accessed from any device, anywhere, at any time. Features include a smart calendar assisting with your rates, availability, restrictions, reservations, and access to more than 150 online travel agencies. 

Revenue Management Software (RMS)

IWhat they are

Revenue Management Software is designed to help teams maximize revenue by harnessing AI and powerful algorithms. Larger businesses often have revenue managers oversee these functions in conjunction with revenue management tools.

 In the short-term rental world, “RMS” often refers to dynamic pricing software. Dynamic pricing software analyzes historical numbers, industry trends, and even competitor data to help hotels set prices more accurately.

Why they matter

Revenue Management is often the second or third major software system that teams will add to their technology stack. Most RMS will attach to either your PMS or CM to help you price your listings across all channels.

In addition to dynamic pricing strategies, RMSs often offer market reports, CompSets, and other analytics tools to help individuals & teams both research and analyze their ever-evolving markets.

RMSs can be rule-based, data-driven, or sometimes offer both approaches through hybrid pricing. These systems can be both automated or “on demand,” pushing prices to all of your channels based on pre-set schedules, on-demand, or only when you permit it.

Revenue management systems are the pricing center for your listings, helping you respond to local demand fluctuations instantly, which is crucial to increasing your revenue through increased occupancy.

Best tools to use

  • Wheelhouse: Wheelhouse helps you hit primary revenue goals through pricing recommendations using your region’s most recent pricing data. You have the option to customize your rates based on the season, as well as add last-minute discounts to entice guests to book your rentals. It considers your property’s unique amenities to give you the most accurate price point when posting your listing. You can earn up to 40% more revenue and scale your portfolio. 
  • Rented.com: Rented is a vacation rental revenue management tool that uses an automated rating tool for homeowners and property owners. Art was built to be simple and easy to use. It also integrates with your PMS to distribute its dynamic prices to your website and across all booking channels. 
  • PriceLabs: PriceLabs is a revenue management software designed to help property managers optimize their properties. It does this by analyzing several market factors, then generating recommendations for pricing decisions. This software connects with all major booking platforms, PMS, and channel managers. The AI then calculates all the information you need to work with as a property manager.

Operations Software

What they are

In the short-term rental space, you’re in the business of selling clean spaces & getting guests safely into their listings. In this case, logistics are hugely important but they can be challenging to manage. Operations software helps keep track of guests arriving and checking out.

Why they matter

Many teams invest in software to ensure that their cleaning teams are easy to schedule, their maintenance staff can quickly resolve issues, and their customer service teams can efficiently and effectively communicate with their guests.

Scheduling, ticketing, and team communication can be tricky, so teams invest in software that addresses these concerns. In the short-term rental space, operators can break even (or even profit) on their cleanings. Therefore, investing in effective software can increase your revenue while significantly decreasing costs and time spent.

Operations software helps you avoid any guest issues, assists with the logistics of your listings, and provides data needed to manage both the cost and profit centers for your business.

Best tools to use:

  • Breezeway: Breezeway offers property care and operations tools to help property managers with all the logistics of managing rental homes. Through their desktop or mobile application, you can schedule property management tasks, coordinate with your management team, message guests to keep them updated, and much more.
  • Resort Cleaning: Resort Cleaning works with your PMS to automate scheduling for each of your units when cleaning and in-between-guest services are needed so there are never scheduling faults or conflicts. This includes keeping all the reports in one place for you to access whenever you need them. Their services include housekeeping, inspections, and general maintenance, connecting you with people in your area.

Data & Insights Software

What they are

While sometimes mistaken for RMS, data tools provide information about how markets & listings are performing.

Multiple data providers effectively show you year-over-year (YOY) trends, upcoming demand patterns, and competitive sets.

Why they matter

Teams can leverage these tools to create their own pricing strategies, used in conjunction with pricing tools like Wheelhouse, or even used to inform investments and home purchases.

Best tools to use

You will never lose important data when working with SendSquared as they ensure they keep up to date with your guest’s interests, reservation tags, and more.

IoT Software

What they are

The Internet of Things tracks the network of physical objects that are necessary when managing your rental properties. Think lockboxes, security systems, and Wi-Fi connections. These are the tools that help increase the value of your property while allowing you to potentially manage it from a remote location.

Why they matter

Managing rentals can be a full-time job. However, the key part of a rental property is that you, as the owner, don’t live there. That means you’ll want remote systems in place, including security systems, Internet and cable connections, electricity and heat, and much more. IoT software helps keep an eye on your home and track those necessary tools when you cannot have direct eyes on them.

Best tools to use:

  • Minut: Minut helps tighten your security with its smart home alarm system. Not only does it ensure that your property is safe when unoccupied, it will also inform you when the noise levels reach a certain level in the home, but the temperature also reaches too low or too high, and more. It helps give you peace of mind when your rental is occupied and unoccupied.
  • Operto: Operto uses smart locks, thermostats, sensors, and other smart devices to manage your rental from afar any time, any day, occupied or not. It uses existing systems such as the locks you already have on your home and enables them to be Bluetooth connected, so you can easily lock and unlock the home from afar.

Ancillary & Upsell Software

What they are

Ancillary software sometimes goes by the name “ancillary management system” (AMS). It’s a type of vacation rental software that manages ancillary products or services that property managers can offer with their homes. While ancillary software often supports upsells, it also provides other management features to indirectly increase revenue.

Additional revenue streams and upsell options might include:

  • Late check-out
  • Early check-in
  • Tour guide services
  • Selling local art or goods 
  • Stocked fridge
