Description
You've probably never heard of BrightSide. We are a small, family-run vacation rental software company based in Maryville, Tennessee...and our software is awesome.
But better yet, our customer service is unparalleled in the industry. We excel at taking care of our clients by:
1. Listening to our clients and responding to what they need.
2. Answering the phone when you call us, or returning your call if you leave a voicemail. You can get us on the phone!
3. We build custom reports.
4. We create new features as needed.
5. All of our features are included for one monthly subscription fee. We don't nickel and dime you.
Yes, our software does a lot; more than many of the others. Our goal is to help you get your life back. Our users say BrightSide is easy to use, but that doesn't mean it is lightweight.
We take care of our clients and we know most of them by name. Does your current software company's support team know you? Let's get to know each other. We would love to help you "Do more. Work less.™"
Description
Host Port is a cloud-based solution designed for property management and channel management, catering to short-term rental hosts, vacation rental proprietors, bed-and-breakfast operators, and smaller accommodation establishments. It effectively merges bookings from various connected platforms into a unified calendar while consolidating guest interactions within a centralized inbox. Users have the ability to establish a direct booking page, process card transactions via their own Stripe accounts, and oversee property specifics, availability, and pricing. The complimentary plan does not impose any time restrictions or listing limits, and it facilitates calendar-link connections to major platforms such as Airbnb, Booking.com, and Vrbo; the Pro version enhances this with two-way synchronization for availability and rate adjustments across integrated channels. Additionally, Host Port allows for listing imports from Airbnb or Booking.com URLs, automates guest messaging, and enables shared access for co-hosts and cleaning staff. Users can also link their PriceLabs accounts and access the platform through both web and mobile applications, ensuring flexibility and convenience in managing their properties. This comprehensive approach makes Host Port a versatile tool for optimizing rental management.
