Guesty ranks first because it covers the full range from a host with one listing to a company with hundreds on one platform. Lite is aimed at 1 to 3 listings and includes the channel manager for Airbnb, Booking.com and Vrbo, a multi-calendar, a unified inbox and a direct booking site from $9 per listing a month. Pro, for 4 to 199 listings, adds sync with 60+ channels, an owners portal and revenue management, and Enterprise adds security, tailored onboarding and advanced reporting for 200+ listings. Every plan includes automation that creates cleaning tasks after checkout and sends guest messages on a schedule, and ReplyAI drafts replies you can review before sending. The weak spot is cost visibility above Lite. Pro is quoted, and tools such as PriceOptimizer, Trust Accounting, GuestyPay and LocksManager are add-ons, so the final bill depends on what you switch on.
