Which one is for you
Pick Lodgify if
- Fits if you rent out a few homes and want bookings through your own website
- Works for hosts who handle reservations and guest replies from a phone
Look elsewhere if
- Watch out: we couldn't read Lodgify's prices, and figures on other sites disagree, so check before you commit
- Tight if you list beyond Airbnb, Vrbo and Booking.com, the only booking sites its app listings name
- Watch out: cleaning and maintenance tasks need the Ultimate plan, according to the app listing
- Not for you if you report to owners or want a built-in pricing tool, as neither is on record
- Skip it if you want a free plan, as there's only a 7-day trial
Pick Zeevou if
- Fits if you want a free booking system and website before paying for channels
- Works for small managers who can start on iCal sync and upgrade later
Look elsewhere if
- Skip it if you need channel sync from day one, because that starts on paid Growth
- Pricey if your portfolio is large, since per-unit prices fall only with volume discounts we can't see
- Watch out: prices are in pounds and the page shows both a list price and a lower figure
- Tight if you want a trial, since there's none, only a 30-day money-back guarantee
- Watch out: annual plans are a 12-month commitment, and guided onboarding starts at 100 pounds
How we grade them
| 2.2GPALodgifyFair | 2.6GPAZeevouGood | |
|---|---|---|
| Value for money | CNo price is on record. Lodgify's pricing page turned our reader away with a bot check and third-party figures disagree, so we can't set it against this category's $25.52 middle. Check the price on its site before you sign up. | CThe paid Growth plan is 30 pounds per unit a month at list price, which is roughly the $30 where the category's dearer quarter begins. The free core stands apart from that. |
| Free plan and trial | CA 7-day free trial with no card needed. There's no free plan, and a week is short for connecting channels and building a website. | BA free plan for unlimited properties, listings and seats, with a booking system, website and owner portal. But channel sync to Airbnb and Booking.com is paid. |
| Features | CChannel sync, a direct booking website, one inbox with saved replies, bookings from your phone and a guest app. The gaps show in the listing: only Airbnb, Vrbo and Booking.com are named, cleaning tasks need Ultimate, and no owner statements or pricing tool are on record. | BBooking system, direct website, channel manager, messaging, check-in and operations, spread across plans. Nothing in the listing is missing from the core job. |
| Ease of use | CNo app-store rating on record. You connect your channel accounts and build a website before it pays off, so there's setup to do. | CNo store rating on record, and you set up properties, channels and automations yourself. |
| Platforms and integrations | BWeb, iPhone and Android, with a separate guest app. Its connections are Airbnb, Vrbo and Booking.com, no API is on record, and there's no desktop app. | BWeb, with Airbnb, Booking.com, Vrbo, 200+ sites, PriceLabs, Xero and Zapier. The listing names a mobile app for operations. |
| Best for | hosts who want their own direct booking website | a free booking system for rental homes |

More comparisons
How this page was made
- The verdict at the top follows a fixed rule. When both tools are in the same category and either is in our top three for it, the verdict follows that ranking: the higher-placed tool is our pick. The top three weigh who each tool suits as well as its grades, so a pick can go against the GPA. Otherwise the page does not pick one and says which grades higher: the higher GPA first; on a tie, the one with a free plan, then the one that starts cheaper in dollars a month, counted the same way for both; if they are still level, what the choice depends on.
- The grades are our own, from each tool’s review or report card. The GPA is their average.
- Prices, plans and platforms come from each tool’s listing. The table above says where each price was read and when.
- The differences and the answers to the questions are worked out from those listings.
