The short version

  • Only Sirvoy has a free tier, so it costs nothing to try first.
  • 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.; Sirvoy the channel manager is only on the Pro plan, so the Starter plan at €11 cannot connect to Booking.com and many buyers discover this after committing to a workflow.
  • They diverge on capability: Redeam covers Reseller connectivity, Sirvoy covers Commission-free booking engine.

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.

Sirvoy

  • The channel manager is only on the Pro plan, so the Starter plan at €11 cannot connect to Booking.com and many buyers discover this after committing to a workflow.
  • Each additional property costs €20 per month on top of Pro, and the multi-property view is weak, so small chains end up with several loosely linked accounts rather than one portfolio.
  • There is no revenue management or dynamic pricing, so rates must be set and adjusted by hand or through a third-party tool that Sirvoy may not integrate with.
  • Reporting is limited to basic occupancy and revenue summaries, which is not enough for a lender, an investor or a serious year on year analysis.
  • SMS is charged per message on top of the subscription, and at €0.10 per message on Starter a property sending pre-arrival and post-stay texts to a hundred bookings a month adds a meaningful and variable cost.

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.

Sirvoy: Does the cheapest paid plan connect to Booking.com?

No. Channel management starts on the Pro plan, at roughly four times the Starter price.

Redeam: What does it cost?

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

Sirvoy: Does Sirvoy take commission on direct bookings?

No. Direct bookings through its engine carry no Sirvoy commission, which is the main financial argument for adopting it.

Redeam: Do I still need a booking platform?

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

Sirvoy: Is there a contract?

No written contract and no setup fee. Billing is monthly or annual, with about 8% off for paying yearly.

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.

Sirvoy: What is the practical size limit?

It works well up to roughly thirty rooms. Beyond that the lack of revenue management and group handling starts to bite.
