Frequently asked questions
Is iGMS or Hospitable cheaper?
Hospitable's Essentials plan is free with no monthly fee, though higher tiers and features like dynamic pricing and direct bookings carry transaction fees. iGMS has no free plan; its FLEX option charges $1 per booked night (minimum $20 per property/month), while PRO starts at $38 per property/month annually. Which is cheaper depends on your booking volume and how many paid features you need.
Which is better for a small portfolio of 2-8 properties?
iGMS is explicitly positioned for independent hosts managing 2 to 8 properties, with a pay-per-booking FLEX plan that scales down as bookings grow. Hospitable also works well at this size thanks to its free Essentials tier, but some of its most useful automation, like dynamic pricing insights and the direct booking website, sits on paid plans.
Does either platform charge commission on direct bookings?
iGMS offers a commission-free direct booking website included at no extra cost on its plans. Hospitable's direct booking website is available from the Professional plan upward and carries transaction fees, from 1% on Direct Basic up to 4% plus a 3% guest fee on Direct Premium.
What's the key difference between iGMS and Hospitable?
iGMS focuses on simplicity and flexible, pay-as-you-go pricing for smaller hosts moving beyond a single platform. Hospitable leans further into AI, with a free entry tier, bundled dynamic pricing, an AI Copilot, and an MCP endpoint that lets AI agents operate the account directly.
How do I switch from iGMS or Hospitable to another platform?
Migrating means exporting your listings, reservations, and guest data, then reconnecting your Airbnb, Vrbo, and Booking.com channels to the new system's channel manager. Providers that offer guided onboarding, such as Zeevou's free core PMS, can help shorten this transition and avoid double bookings during the switch.
