The Quarters vs a spreadsheet

This is the real incumbent. Nearly every operator we speak to has a PMS for the bookings and a spreadsheet for everything the PMS cannot represent. The spreadsheet is the one they actually open.

Keep the spreadsheet if…

Where they are the right answer.

  • It costs nothing and you already know how to use it.

  • It will model anything. No software can match a blank grid for expressing a situation nobody anticipated.

  • There is no migration, no procurement and nobody to ask.

  • For a portfolio you can hold in your head, three or four units, it is genuinely the right tool, and we will tell you so.

The difference

What you get here instead.

The spreadsheet does not lose because it is primitive. It loses at exactly the point where it stops being a record you keep and becomes the record: authoritative, edited by several people at once, and impossible to check. Most operators can name the week that happened. If you cannot yet, stay where you are. You will know.

  • One version. Not four tabs, three editors and whichever copy was open longest.
  • The rota is derived from the reservations, so a booking that moves takes its cleaning with it.
  • An attributed history of who changed what, which a shared sheet cannot give you.
  • The lease, the deposit and the signing evidence attached to the tenancy rather than in an inbox.

Guesty is the one most operators are actually leaving, and it gets the long version.
