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.
Rezdy
- Rezdy, Checkfront and Regiondo have shared an owner since 2023, so an operator running a three-way comparison is choosing between products from one company with one roadmap.
- Every tier carries a percentage booking fee on top of the subscription, so the cheapest plan is the most expensive per booking and the true cost rises with success rather than staying fixed.
- The marketplace is the main reason to be there, and its reseller depth varies sharply by destination; in a market with few connected agents you are paying a distribution premium for nothing.
- Setting up complex products with shared resources across sessions is fiddly, and operators regularly need vendor assistance rather than configuring it unaided.
- Payment processing is layered on top of the booking fee, so the effective take on each reservation is materially higher than the advertised percentage suggests.

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.
Rezdy: Who owns Rezdy?
Expedition Software Holding, backed by Vertica Capital Partners, which also owns Checkfront and Regiondo following a 2023 rollup.
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.
Rezdy: Does Rezdy charge on direct website bookings?
Yes. The booking fee applies to bookings processed through the platform, including those from your own site, on top of card processing.
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.
Rezdy: What is the marketplace worth?
It depends entirely on your destination. Where agent and concierge traffic is significant it is the main reason to buy Rezdy; where it is not, the value collapses.
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.
Rezdy: How much does it really cost per booking?
Add the tier booking fee, roughly 1.75 to 2 per cent, to your card processing rate, then add the monthly subscription spread across your volume.
