We enjoy that we can access Reservation Key from our phone and be able to place a reservation anywhere. Pros Simple to use. Simple 5 minute training for new staff to be familiar with use and able to make adjustments to a reservation Cons Wish there was a texting option. to communicate with guests. Not everyone checks the email while on vacation. Review source Incentivized review: software users are invited to submit an honest review and offered a nominal incentive for their time and effort.

Reservation Key delivers exactly that at a fraction of the cost of the competition. Their property management system is modern, simple, and highly intuitive. It streamlines daily operations without introducing unnecessary complexity, allowing for better focus on the business and guests. Beyond the software itself, the customer support is exceptional. \[sensitive content hidden\] consistently provide amazing service. They are responsive, knowledgeable, and ensure questions are addressed quickly and accurately. I highly recommend Reservation Key to any hospitality operator looking for a robust, user-friendly PMS backed by outstanding support. Cons Would have liked a paid , done for me option for onboarding. Everything else so far has been wonderful Switched from [StealthSeminar](https://www.capterra.com/p/197122/StealthSeminar/) Google hotels link was not avialable with them . I was with guest room genie but that wasnt an option Alternatives considered [ThinkReservations](https://www.capterra.com/p/182891/ThinkReservations/) Reasons for choosing ReservationKey Priice and website ownership was the deciding factor Review source Non-incentivized review: any software user can leave a review for any product listed on our site.

Campground Owner, Host Hospitality ### "Greenwood Lodge and Campsites Review of Reservation Key" 5.0 Overall Rating 5.0 5.0 Ease of Use 5.0 5.0 Features 5.0 5.0 Customer Service 5.0 5.0 Likelihood to Recommend 10/10 November 10, 2024 We had looked at a few other online booking programs before making a decision to use Reservation Key as our online booking tool. Be mindful that we never used any other online booking system before. The reason why we chose Reservation Key was the ease of learning how to set up our online booking program with the helpful and patient guidance from \[sensitive content hidden\] and \[sensitive content hidden\]. We had a very successful camping season and we wish we did the online booking sooner. Reservation Key is a perfect tool for our small seasonal business. Pros The pros of Reservation Key have been convenience and efficiency after transitioning from our old way of booking through numerous phone calls, e-mails and postal service. As a small campground, Reservation Key is a right fit for us and cost effective. Cons As for cons, we can’t provide any experience in that department because glitches were too few and customer support was always responsive and helpful. Alternatives considered [Open Campground](https://www.capterra.com/p/142872/Open-Campground/) Reasons for choosing ReservationKey I like the way the software was set up and Reservation Key was a right tool for us.

TC Tracey C. President Hospitality ### "Reasonable price (but not cheap!) and easy to work with" 5.0 Overall Rating 5.0 5.0 Ease of Use 5.0 5.0 Features 5.0 5.0 Customer Service 5.0 5.0 Likelihood to Recommend 10/10 October 15, 2024 Wonderful, lots of pros and barely a con. Pros Simple system without bells and whistles that I had no need for - and the price was reasonable because of that. I moved from another, larger, reservation software system because their prices went up, they provided more bells and whistles that a small business like mine just didn't need/use. Customer service, particularly \[sensitive content hidden\], was always prompt and efficient, every single year, not just in the first year. Cons I found the Forum a bit clunky to use, that could use a lot of updating to make it a bit more user friendly. Overall, I had to think hard to find a "Con". Loved Reservation Key for many years I've been with them. Switched from [ResNexus](https://www.capterra.com/p/129392/Reservation-Nexus/) Too expensive. Deteriorating customer service.

Bed and Breakfast Owner and Operator Hospitality ### "Reservation Key is the backbone of our business" 5.0 Overall Rating 5.0 5.0 Ease of Use 5.0 5.0 Features 5.0 5.0 Customer Service 5.0 5.0 Likelihood to Recommend 10/10 October 6, 2023 Reservation Key has been the backbone of our B&B business for three years now. The system software it's self is practical, reliable and user friendly from both the back end as an administrator and the front end for guests. And, while the platform has been wonderful, it is the customer service that really keeps us on point! Our account manager, \[sensitive content hidden\], is always professional incredibly efficient with response time, and there has never been a hiccup \[sensitive content hidden\] hasn't been able to get to the bottom of. We are so grateful for Res Key from software to customer care! Pros customer service, user friendly, price point. Cons Like any new platform, there is a learning curve. This is no fault of Res Key, but just learning a new system. Reasons for choosing ReservationKey price, customer service and the trial period.

Pros I have been working with Reservationkey for 19+ years. I am in awe of how the software has been so receptive to my needs and have been able to create and integrate the software to grow with my business! Cons Flexing rates through the channel manager can be challenging although I chose to work with a more affordable channel manager. Reservationkey is compatible with more robust channel managers that cost a lot more. With channel management you get what you pay for but with Reservationkey, I get what I pay more and SO much more! Reasons for choosing ReservationKey Originally, I chose Reservationkey because it was the most affordable. Over the years I have researched and considered switching software severalties, although I have yet to find a software that has the features for vacation rental AND hotel management that Reservationkey has.

Pros We at Springer Creek RV Park & Campground are totally impressed with Reservation Key as a company. The site is user friendly. Even the senior's have commented on how easy it is to use. If there are any glitches at all (which is rare) the folks at ResKey are on it! The staff is also very friendly and respond quickly if you have an issue. Thanks ResKey!!

It does precisely what you want it to do, when you need it. Pros Ridiculously easy to use, intuitive to learn. And so many options that each individual business can be fully served. Cons So Few! And, If I encountered something I didn't particularly like, I mentioned it to the folks at Reservation Key and they found a way to tailor it to my needs. That's pretty profound. So I don't have any 'cons' to offer.

CM Chris M. owner Real Estate ### "Great customer service!" 5.0 Overall Rating 5.0 5.0 Ease of Use 4.0 4.0 Features 5.0 5.0 Customer Service 5.0 5.0 Likelihood to Recommend 9/10 August 10, 2022 Using Reservation Key has made my booking process so much easier. I no longer have to worry about keeping track of everything, it does it for me. I wish I would have done it sooner. Pros For the most part easy to set up and change things once you have everything in place. The customer service is outstanding. I have a friend who uses a different company for bookings and that is his biggest complaint. I usually have an answer within an hour to any questions I have with details and pictures showing me how to do it. I also communicate with the same person each time which makes it more personable and she knows my properties. Cons I wish it would sink with other VRBO/Airbnb as far as changing prices, pictures, etc. I know some of the other reservation platforms have this feature. Also it's hard to change just a daily price on the calendar if you just want to decrease a price or switch the minimum days required to book. If it's last minute I like to make adjustments to try to get a booking. Review source Non-incentivized review: any software user can leave a review for any product listed on our site.

The ReservationKey program was the perfect solution for managing and booking reservations at our small 20-room motel. Being able to keep an on eye on financials and daily bookings from wherever I could get an Internet connection was a game changer for me personally. Again, thank you, thank you!!
