- They diverge on capability: Boostly covers Custom WordPress site, Revinate covers Guest profile resolution.

Where each one falls short
Documented limitations, not opinions. Every one is a constraint you would hit in normal use.
Boostly
- The dominant cost is the one-off build fee, which is quoted rather than published and typically runs into the thousands, so the monthly figure hosts quote to each other badly understates the commitment.
- It is a website and a marketing programme, not a property management system; you still need and still pay for a PMS underneath it.
- Results depend entirely on your own effort producing content and email, and a site with no traffic strategy produces no direct bookings regardless of how well it is built.
- The build is WordPress, which means plugin updates, hosting decisions and the security exposure that comes with the platform, all of which land on you or on a paid maintenance arrangement.
- Coaching and community are a large share of what you pay for, which is poor value for an operator who already has marketing capability and only wants the booking site.
Revinate
- Pricing is not published and is quoted per property scaled by room count with a monthly floor, so small properties often find the minimum higher than the campaign revenue they can realistically generate.
- Value depends on database size and quality; a hotel with a few thousand contacts and mostly OTA business will not recover the licence cost through email revenue.
- The platform is sold as several products including marketing, messaging and reservation sales, so the quoted figure often covers less than a buyer assumes and the full stack costs considerably more.
- Profile resolution quality depends on how the PMS was operated, and a property with poor data capture at check-in gets a cleaner database that is still missing email addresses for most guests.
- It is hotel-specific, so a group with mixed accommodation including serviced apartments or vacation rentals will find parts of the model and integrations do not fit those units.

Answered from the vendors’ own pages
Boostly: Is Boostly a property management system?
No. It builds direct booking websites and teaches marketing. Your PMS stays where it is and Boostly plugs into it.
Revinate: What does Revinate cost?
It is not published. Expect a per property monthly figure scaled by room count with a minimum, and confirm which products are inside that number.
Boostly: What does it actually cost?
Pricing is not published. The structure is a substantial one-off build fee, commonly quoted in the low thousands of US dollars, plus a smaller ongoing subscription.
Revinate: Does it replace my email tool?
Yes for guest marketing, because it is built on merged PMS profiles rather than a contact list you upload.
Boostly: Do I own the website?
It is built on WordPress, so unlike a closed platform site you retain something transferable, though moving it off Boostly means taking on hosting and maintenance yourself.
Revinate: Will it work with a small database?
Poorly. The economics depend on having enough guest records with usable email addresses to generate attributable revenue.
Boostly: Will it replace Airbnb bookings?
Only to the extent you drive traffic to it. The site converts demand you generate; it does not create demand on its own.
Revinate: Is Ivy included?
Not necessarily. Messaging is priced separately from the marketing platform; confirm in writing.
