Pros

  • No setup fees.
  • A great value with a robust set of features that will work for users with only a couple of properties up to those who manage an extensive portfolio.
  • No extra fees for additional users.
  • OwnerRez websites practically build themselves and are great for folks who don’t have the time or inclination to have a stand-alone custom site built.
  • There is an Unofficial OwnerRez Facebook page full of helpful people who are happy to answer questions.  Sometimes this is faster than utilizing customer support.

Cons

  • There is a fairly steep learning curve to setting up and learning OwnerRez that intimidates some people and it isn't as intuitive as other platforms.  Once users become familiar with the software this is typically no longer an issue.  If you are easily overwhelmed by technology consider taking advantage of the ProConnect service.
  • Some may consider that it doesn’t have a dedicated mobile app as a disadvantage. Others would say that’s not an issue since the site is responsive and can be saved to your screen like an app.
  • As with all direct booking websites built through property management software templates, if you use the OwnerRez website feature, you will lose your site if you switch to a different PMS.
  • Currently, the telephone support number goes to voicemail and directs you to leave a message or send an email.  It can take 24 hours to receive a reply, but the support is very thorough and will check back to be sure your issue has been resolved.
