The short version
- Each has a real cost: Clock PMS+ pricing on annual net revenue means a high-ADR boutique pays materially more than a budget property with the same room count, which is a bad deal for exactly the operators with the strongest performance.; Shiji chinese ownership and a Shenzhen listing raise data residency and supply chain questions that must be settled during procurement, and in United States government or defence-adjacent accounts they can end the evaluation outright.
- They diverge on capability: Clock PMS+ covers All-inclusive modules, Shiji covers Daylight PMS.

Where each one falls short
Documented limitations, not opinions. Every one is a constraint you would hit in normal use.
Clock PMS+
- Pricing on annual net revenue means a high-ADR boutique pays materially more than a budget property with the same room count, which is a bad deal for exactly the operators with the strongest performance.
- The onboarding fee of 1,650 to 3,900 euros is a real first-year cost that the monthly figure hides, and it applies before the system is producing any value.
- The all-inclusive claim has exceptions: OTA channel connections, extra rate mappings and private analytics are all charged separately on top.
- Contracts are annual with tier reassessment at year end, so a good trading year raises next year subscription automatically unless renegotiated.
- Market presence is concentrated in Europe and the vendor is small relative to Oracle or Mews, which means a thinner integration ecosystem and more dependence on the vendor for anything bespoke.
Shiji
- Chinese ownership and a Shenzhen listing raise data residency and supply chain questions that must be settled during procurement, and in United States government or defence-adjacent accounts they can end the evaluation outright.
- Pricing is entirely quoted with no published figures at any product level, so comparing Shiji against Oracle or Mews on cost requires a full sales engagement.
- The portfolio is partly assembled from acquisitions, and the degree of integration between products varies, so a group buying several Shiji modules should test the joins rather than assume them.
- Implementation timelines at enterprise scale run to many months and require interface development that is charged on top of licence, which is a substantial hidden budget line.
- It is not a realistic option below roughly the mid-scale group level; a single independent hotel will not get sensible pricing or attention.

Answered from the vendors’ own pages
Clock PMS+: How is Clock PMS+ priced?
By tier, set from annual net revenue and room count. A 40 room hotel with 1.9 million euros of revenue sits around 517 euros a month.
Shiji: What do you actually buy from Shiji?
Most commonly Daylight PMS, Infrasys point of sale, or both, plus payments. The group name covers a wider portfolio than any one hotel purchases.
Clock PMS+: Is there a setup fee?
Yes, onboarding runs roughly 1,650 to 3,900 euros depending on plan.
Shiji: Does Chinese ownership matter?
It can. For United States government-adjacent business and some corporate accounts it triggers data residency and supply chain review, so raise it at the start of procurement rather than at contract stage.
Clock PMS+: Is the channel manager included?
No. OTA connections come through RoomCloud at 10 euros per channel per month, up to ten channels.
Shiji: Is Shiji an alternative to Oracle Hospitality?
Yes, and that is largely its positioning at the enterprise end, particularly in international luxury groups where Infrasys already has deployment.
Clock PMS+: Does it include point of sale?
Yes, POS posting to the guest folio is in the base subscription, which is unusual at this price point.
Shiji: Can a single hotel buy it?
In principle, but the commercial model, implementation cost and support structure assume a group, and small properties are better served elsewhere.
