The next PMS in this series is a company that has been in the news a lot recently,

0:07.2

and I am very happy to say that I've got to know the team and the founder quite well

0:12.1

over the course of the last couple of months, just from being on Clubhouse

0:14.8

and being in Clubhouse Group through them. I'm talking about Guesty.

0:17.6

So Guesty, you may have heard of them, raised a lot, a lot of money, that is a lot of zeros,

0:23.6

for funding, they are buying up other PMSes, they recently acquired your porter,

0:28.1

and they are growing and growing and growing. They are definitely one of the world's leading

0:33.9

property management softwares, but what I love about them isn't so much the technology,

0:38.2

the gear, the kit that they do. They have got such a good community built. You can go to any

1:10.6

they've got so many features. For example, the Guest Communication feature is one that I

1:15.2

absolutely adore and love, but it is a premium cost. So this is an actual human that will get

1:20.2

a sign to your account. So that means that you can sleep at night knowing full well

1:25.2

that when I guess contacts at one o'clock in the morning saying, I've lost my keys,

1:29.6

then there will be somebody at Guesty who will be able to take it for you. But again,

1:33.1

this is a premium service. I would not recommend it if you've just got one property. It's not worth

1:38.9

it. It is too expensive. I think Guesty's minimum buying is five. It used to be ten. I think it's

1:44.2

five properties in itself. So again, it just goes to show that they know their target, they know the
