The short version

  • Only Sirvoy has a free tier, so it costs nothing to try first.
  • Each has a real cost: Beds24 support is helpful on how to use the product but slow and thin on genuine defects, and the ticketing system does not accept screenshots or attachments properly, which makes reporting a real bug laborious.; Sirvoy the channel manager is only on the Pro plan, so the Starter plan at €11 cannot connect to Booking.com and many buyers discover this after committing to a workflow.
  • They diverge on capability: Beds24 covers Broad channel connections, Sirvoy covers Commission-free booking engine.
  • Prices and features above were last checked on 31 August 2026.

Where each one falls short

Documented limitations, not opinions. Every one is a constraint you would hit in normal use.

Beds24

  • Support is helpful on how to use the product but slow and thin on genuine defects, and the ticketing system does not accept screenshots or attachments properly, which makes reporting a real bug laborious.
  • There is no built-in dynamic pricing engine, so revenue management means paying separately for PriceLabs or an equivalent and accepting a second system to maintain.
  • No website builder is included; the booking page is templated but a marketing site has to be built and hosted elsewhere.
  • Initial configuration is genuinely difficult and largely self-serve, and operators regularly report days rather than hours to get channel mappings and rate rules correct.
  • Housekeeping, task management, smart lock support and any hospitality CRM are absent or require third-party tools, so it is a distribution engine rather than an operations platform.

Sirvoy

  • The channel manager is only on the Pro plan, so the Starter plan at €11 cannot connect to Booking.com and many buyers discover this after committing to a workflow.
  • Each additional property costs €20 per month on top of Pro, and the multi-property view is weak, so small chains end up with several loosely linked accounts rather than one portfolio.
  • There is no revenue management or dynamic pricing, so rates must be set and adjusted by hand or through a third-party tool that Sirvoy may not integrate with.
  • Reporting is limited to basic occupancy and revenue summaries, which is not enough for a lender, an investor or a serious year on year analysis.
  • SMS is charged per message on top of the subscription, and at €0.10 per message on Starter a property sending pre-arrival and post-stay texts to a hundred bookings a month adds a meaningful and variable cost.

Answered from the vendors’ own pages

Beds24: Why is Beds24 so much cheaper than Lodgify or Uplisting?

Because it does not pay for onboarding, guided setup or a website builder. You configure it yourself from raw settings pages, and that labour is the difference.

Sirvoy: Does the cheapest paid plan connect to Booking.com?

No. Channel management starts on the Pro plan, at roughly four times the Starter price.

Beds24: Is the channel manager restricted on the cheap plan?

No. Unlike most competitors, Beds24 does not gate distribution behind a higher tier; the price scales with property and unit count rather than feature access.

Sirvoy: Does Sirvoy take commission on direct bookings?

No. Direct bookings through its engine carry no Sirvoy commission, which is the main financial argument for adopting it.

Beds24: Does it include dynamic pricing?

No. You connect PriceLabs or a similar tool, which is an additional subscription.

Sirvoy: Is there a contract?

No written contract and no setup fee. Billing is monthly or annual, with about 8% off for paying yearly.

Beds24: Is there an API?

Yes, a documented REST API, and it is one of the main reasons technical operators pick Beds24 over packaged alternatives.

Sirvoy: What is the practical size limit?

It works well up to roughly thirty rooms. Beyond that the lack of revenue management and group handling starts to bite.
