  • They diverge on capability: Smoobu covers Channel manager, WebRezPro covers Mixed inventory types.
  • 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.

Smoobu

  • The Flex plan carries a 0.9% fee on every booking, which on an apartment turning over €40,000 a year costs more than the entire annual subscription saving, and the pricing page presents Flex as the cheaper option.
  • Pricing is per unit, so a ten unit portfolio pays roughly €31.50 plus nine additional units at about €9.60, and the headline monthly figure covers a single apartment only.
  • Write access is charged per account beyond the included seats, so a cleaner, a co-host and an owner all needing to edit bookings turn into a recurring per seat cost.
  • There is no trust accounting or owner statement generation, so anyone managing units on behalf of third-party owners has to build payout reporting outside the system.
  • Housekeeping and maintenance dispatch is minimal compared with manager-grade platforms, so cleaning coordination happens in WhatsApp or a separate tool once you are past a few units.

WebRezPro

  • No pricing is published at all, so evaluating WebRezPro means a sales conversation before you can compare it against Cloudbeds or Little Hotelier on cost.
  • The interface is dense and dated, and staff used to modern consumer software typically need structured training rather than picking it up on shift.
  • There is no meaningful native mobile app for staff, so housekeeping and maintenance workflows are done through a browser on a phone rather than a purpose-built app.
  • The third-party integration ecosystem is small, and requests for connections outside the existing list usually mean a custom development quote rather than a marketplace toggle.
  • Revenue management is limited to rate rules and yield triggers rather than genuine demand forecasting, so properties that want dynamic pricing need to add PriceLabs or RoomPriceGenie separately.

Answered from the vendors’ own pages

Smoobu: Which plan is actually cheaper, Flex or Prepaid?

Prepaid, for almost anyone with real occupancy. The 0.9% booking fee on Flex exceeds the subscription difference once annual revenue passes a few thousand euros.

WebRezPro: How much does WebRezPro cost?

It is quoted, not published. The model is per unit per month with a monthly minimum, and the per-unit rate differs for hotel rooms, hostel beds and campsites.

Smoobu: How many properties does the entry price cover?

One. Every additional unit adds roughly €9.60 per month.

WebRezPro: Does it charge commission on direct bookings?

No. The booking engine is commission-free; you pay the subscription and your own card processing rates.

Smoobu: Does it include dynamic pricing?

Only two months free on the Teams tier. Ongoing dynamic pricing means subscribing to PriceLabs or similar.

WebRezPro: Can it run a campground and a hotel together?

Yes. Mixed inventory in one property is one of the reasons operators choose it over a rooms-only PMS.

Smoobu: Is there a contract?

Billing is monthly, yearly or two-yearly, with 30 days notice required to cancel; longer terms buy 10% or 20% off.

WebRezPro: Is there an open API?

There is an API for partner integrations, but it is not self-service in the way Mews or Apaleo publish theirs, and access is arranged through the vendor.
