Where each one falls short

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

Hotelogix

  • The advertised per-room rate covers the PMS only; the channel manager and accounting connector are separate per-room subscriptions with their own monthly minimums, so a small hotel budgeting from the headline number will underestimate the bill.
  • Each additional third-party interface, such as a door lock or a payment terminal, is billed as its own monthly fee, which makes an integrated stack expensive to assemble at a property that wants several connections.
  • Multi-property and enterprise pricing is not published, so a growing group cannot compare Hotelogix against alternatives without entering a sales process.
  • The user interface is dated next to Mews or Cloudbeds, and staff coming from a modern consumer app typically need more training time on the tape chart and folio screens.
  • Support quality varies by region and depends heavily on the local reseller rather than on the vendor directly, so response times in markets without a partner presence are inconsistent.

Stayntouch

  • Quote-only pricing scaled by rooms, with no published rates
  • Mobile-first depends on property-wide wireless coverage that many older hotels do not have
  • A smaller vendor than the major PMS providers, with a narrower integration ecosystem
  • Strongest in North America, with less coverage elsewhere

Answered from the vendors’ own pages

Hotelogix: What does Hotelogix actually cost for a thirty-room hotel?

The core PMS at the entry tier is around 240 US dollars a month at 7.99 per room, but adding the channel manager at about 1 dollar per room with a 25 dollar floor and any interface fees typically pushes the real figure past 300 dollars.

Stayntouch: What does Stayntouch cost?

Quoted per property by room count; not published.

Hotelogix: Is the channel manager included?

No. Distribution is a paid add-on charged per room per month on top of whichever PMS tier you are on.

Stayntouch: What does mobile-first actually change?

Check-in happens on a tablet anywhere in the property or on the guest's own phone, rather than at a fixed counter, which changes both queuing and front-desk staffing.

Hotelogix: Does Hotelogix take commission on direct bookings?

No. The booking engine does not charge a per-reservation commission; you pay only the subscription and your own payment processing.

Stayntouch: What does it need to work well?

Reliable property-wide wireless. A mobile-first PMS is only as good as the network it runs on.

Hotelogix: Is it suitable for a hotel group?

It has a multi-property dashboard, but group pricing is quoted rather than published and larger chains generally shortlist Opera or Mews instead.
