The short version

Each has a real cost: Redeam pricing is not published, so budgeting requires a sales process and there is no way to sanity check the quote against a market rate.; 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: Redeam covers Reseller connectivity, Shiji covers Daylight PMS.

Where each one falls short

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

Redeam

Pricing is not published, so budgeting requires a sales process and there is no way to sanity check the quote against a market rate.
It is not a booking engine, so you still pay for a reservation system alongside it and Redeam is an additional line rather than a replacement.
The value is proportional to the number of reseller relationships you have, so an operator with two OTA connections gains nothing over the channel manager in their existing platform.
Onboarding involves integrating both your reservation system and each partner, which is a project with dependencies on third parties you do not control.
The vendor is small relative to the OTAs it connects to, which means limited leverage when a major channel changes its API and connections need rework.

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

Redeam: Is Redeam a booking system?

No. It is connectivity, redemption and reconciliation between your reservation system and your resellers.

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.

Redeam: What does it cost?

Not published. Expect quoting by transaction volume or number of connections.

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.

Redeam: Do I still need a booking platform?

Yes. Redeam sits alongside FareHarbor, Bokun or your own system rather than replacing it.

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.

Redeam: Does it handle offline resellers?

Yes, including pre-issued and paper vouchers from tour desks and agencies, which is the main reason operators buy it.

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.
