The short version

  • Each has a real cost: Regiondo a per-ticket fee applies on top of the subscription, so a high-volume operator selling many low-price tickets pays disproportionately compared with one selling few expensive ones.; 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: Regiondo covers Booking widget, Shiji covers Daylight PMS.
  • Prices and features above were last checked on 31 August 2026.

Where each one falls short

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

Regiondo

  • A per-ticket fee applies on top of the subscription, so a high-volume operator selling many low-price tickets pays disproportionately compared with one selling few expensive ones.
  • Regiondo now shares an owner with Rezdy and Checkfront, so evaluating the three against each other is evaluating one company presenting three faces.
  • It was owned from 2019 to 2023 by the parent of Jochen Schweizer and mydays, an experience reseller, and operators who signed during that period were running their bookings through a system owned by a distribution competitor.
  • Strength is concentrated in German-speaking Europe; OTA depth, language coverage and support quality drop noticeably for operators in other regions.
  • The product is deliberately simple, and operations with complex shared-resource constraints across many products find the scheduling model too coarse.

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

Regiondo: How much does Regiondo cost?

From about 59 euros a month for Grow and 99 euros for the higher tier, with a small per-ticket fee on confirmed bookings and 10 per cent off for annual payment.

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.

Regiondo: Who owns Regiondo?

Expedition Software Holding, backed by Vertica Capital Partners, since 2023. Before that it was owned by ProSiebenSat.1 within the Jochen Schweizer mydays group.

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.

Regiondo: Does it charge commission on my own website bookings?

Not a percentage commission, but a per-ticket fee applies, so the cost scales with ticket count rather than with revenue.

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.

Regiondo: Is it a good fit outside Germany?

It works, but the OTA connections, payment methods and support are built around German-speaking Europe first.

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.
