Tokeet gets your vacation rental more bookings from Airbnb, Expedia, Booking, HomeAway, VRBO and other sites. Tokeet users see their bookings increase 25% once they start using the service.
It would be good if it synched automatically with more OTAs but this isnt really an issue as the overall product is excellent
They came highly recommended to me, and I am glad I listened. The price is a fraction of the other vacation rental software companies and the program is actually very well designed.
I'm gonna have to be boring and say "none". There is a slight learning curve, even coming from another channel manager, but that's to be expected really - it's about as easy as managing 20+ properties can ever be.
Occasionally, there are glitches; e.g. the website builder function is great, and produces a great looking website in minutes. However, when an email is generated from within the website, it is not forwarded on automatically to email system. So, when Tokeet were informed of this, they are looking for a resolution. Very proactive.
Nothing to dislike but I am aware I’m a small operator. It’s only been 8 months but it’s made them very easy for me.
If something doesn't work as expected or designed, no commitment from support to staff to fix it which is horrible customer service and leaves the user without confidence if something doesn't work you are left of your own to wait or try and resolve.
We got excited when looking at the homepage and it all looked like a product offering a lot of the features we needed. In the end though the site is very procedural and requires a lot of data entry, some of the connections to other softwares are not active or do not work correctly. The channel manager is pretty weak and does not allow proper synchronisation of most of the data, and lacks many of the channels we need to expand our business. Probably an ok tool for somebody who wants to spend little and manages up to 3 or 4 properties, but nowhere near the enterprise-class software we need to grow our business and automate our processes. by Tokeet on 02/04/2018 Thank you for taking the time to write your review; we really appreciate your feedback. Our channel partnerships are described in more detail here: http://help.tokeet.com/channel-manager/tokeet-channel-manager-overviewAs we plan our product roadmap for 2018, we expect to add multiple new API partnerships, as well as several best-of-breed products that will really add value to your vacation rental business.Thanks again for your feedback!
- Customer service does not solve all the issues and give timely feedback if solved
No Customer service out of hours.
Would like to have more API connections, the major ones are there which is more important. Manage pictures and descriptions on Tokeet.
When I view the calendar in the app, I dislike the way the bookings are displayed as I get a little confused. Saying this there is probably a way to change this that I haven't figured out yet...
Sometimes it gets disconnected from Airbnb but support team responds rapidly. But this does not occur very often
This is an awful system and the 'support' team are unhelpful to say the least. We have had a number of double bookings as a result of Tokeets incompetence. The staff totally wash their hands of any responsibility and their stock answer when they get it wrong - very wrong by allowing a number of double bookings - is that the customer is free to leave if they are unhappy with the service. Please avoid this company as they are certainly not fit for purpose. by Tokeet on 02/04/2018 Thank you for taking the time to write your review; we really appreciate your feedback. Double bookings should not occur, as long as channel connections are properly connected. Our Support team is available to work with you on the issue 24 hours a day on live chat and email, as well as a daily "Tokeet Academy" webinar. Phone support is also available, especially for bigger customers of Tokeet. I am sorry you had a negative experience; we will take the time to learn and improve based on your feedback.
The learning curve is steep, but that just is what it is. I haven't used all of the features but I look forward to learning and growing as I continue to use it. I have no plans to look at anything else.
I have found that there is an immense level of configuration necessary to really get the best out of Tokeet - many processes that, in competing PMS platforms, are very turnkey to setup require much more work to reach equivalent functionality in Tokeet. With that said, that configuration allows for far more customization, and so those turnkey setups in other platforms are not the best fit for everyone. Regardless, the company provides a comprehensive library of help articles and videos to get everything configured exactly the way that you need - and customer support is immediately responsive to any inquiry we've had - so it's just a matter of taking the time.
the website looks great and very professional. These guys are verified with booking.com and airbnb which makes them rare on the market. the software seems at beginning pretty simple but this need to be prooved
The synchronization is simply not working properly. It skipped bookings which were not from booking .com and ignoring bookings from airbnb. Within 1 hour I got 2 double bookings and while contacting the support nobody cares or thinks to help you. by Tokeet on 02/04/2018 Thank you for taking the time to write your review!

Very easy and intuitive UI, integrated payment gateway for both directy bookings and OTA bookings, packed with features like multiple variations of booking engines, free website, ability to create an online guest portal, template and automated messages, etc. Tokeet has made my world SO much easier.
In the future would love to see more seamless integrations with other OTAs other than AirBnB, booking.com and Expedia. Currently there are limited integrations with other OTAs, but not as easy to manage those.
There are some automation options which are not yet available which would mean that the processing of bookings could become even easier. For example, I would like to be able to automatically create an invoice and take payment. I would also like to be able to automate the sending out of access details to guests IF they have signed their contract AND they have paid. This is not yet possible,
First upon registering for my trial I hit immediate roadblocks. I use Stripe and PayPal, but Tokeet requires a plan to use either of these. A free trial should not be limited, my understanding of a free trial is to test all of the Apps functionality. Secondly, I was unable to really manage my account properly while using the free trial. I completed an automated import from AirBnb of my listings. I was unable to remove 4 of the unused listing due to a message Unable to delete rental. This rental has associated inquiries and had a total of 6 listings. Basically 2 active and 4 inactive, which I could not remove. Third, I was constantly forced to add my credit card and select a paid plan, I was unable to remove rentals, I was unable to reduce my listing quantity from 6 to 2 and pay the designated amount for my listing quantity. Lastly, after all of the above nonsense, I figured I would just delete my account completely. I can report it is simply NOT possible to delete your account. They still force you to add a credit card and select a plan just to access my account info and remove my account. All of the above just makes me wonder about this company. And requests to customer service did not pan out.
The rental website is a little confusing. I don't really need a separate site to display properties, but it wouldn't hurt.
Cost, active dev team, good product
some limitations. historically had bugs. vacation branding!...we're not just vacations
The support. Having added a basic piece of CSS their system just falls over, plus i've just been told they don't support this feature and aren't able to tell me what CSS syntax IS supported - despite JS and CSS being plastered all over their sales literature. Today, it took an 8 hour conversation over live chat to get this information and their support offered me a selection of solutions first which were entirely unrelated - even I could tell this as a user.
A few technical issues, but they work hard to fix them.
The app on my iPad does not work very well. It works fine on my iPhone. I prefer to use my iPad because the iPhone is too small. Please can you get it to render properly?
Customer support is completely useless. Any question that they can't answer copying and pasting from their help documents gets sent to a secondary tier of customer support. In nearly a year of use none of the many questions I've made that have been sent to this secondary tier of support have been answered.
The only thing I can complain about was that,as easy as it was to set up, it was a bit time consuming. However when you try to do anything with multiple listings in this business, it does get a little time consuming.
It seemed to have a good balance of features and price.
Have used Tokeet for about half a year but we definitely cannot recommend it for managing different channels. Constantly loosing connections and automatically spamming our homeowner's accounts on email because of it. The interface and functionality you get for the price can seem appealing at first, but the software is poorly designed on the back-end to the point of it being unusable. When you realise that problems run deep and that these are not temporary glitches, you reach out for the customer support on chat to receive copy/paste templated answers that drive you crazy. Their support chat manages somehow to be a far worse experience than a chatbot, not sure how is this even possible. No one in the team has ever been authentically interested in fixing our issues but they keep constantly launching new features without fixing their core ones.
Tokeet is easy to get used to using and the Ux/Ui is clean and modern. It offers several integrations that can be very helpful in automating business functions.
Lots of growing pains, technical glitches and slow support. While the Automata and Signature add ons look good up front the have numerous technical issues still that diminish their value significantly.
Awful customer service, it's only available mon - fri when running vacation rentals is 7 days a week. They are having issues with Airbnb currently causing multiple accounts to get disconnected from their Airbnb channel. I might add that they do not even tell you if you get disconnected so you are open to double bookings etc. You ask them whats wrong and they don't answer, they give you useless help. The software has potential but it seems to me as if it's still in the development stage! AVOID AVOID AVOID.
The App & sales video promises a lot, but delivers very little. The Mantra of the support guys is to just ignore the problems you are having, that it doesn't matter. The App is incapable of maintaining the live connections to all the different channels & within days channels have to be re-added or reverified. You contact support & the support guys are useless. The website even gets flagged up as a Security risk by Safari & the support guys just tell you to ignore that too. Every time I raise a problem I get temporary fixes that involves me doing all the work, in order to work around inherent bugs in the system & before the problems are even solved the support team are messaging me to tell me they are "closing the support tickets". I have contacted them to tell them not to do that & they just ignore their customers. AVOID THIS PRODUCT AT ALL COSTS, DO NOT WASTE YOUR MONEY OR YOUR TIME. THEY DO NOT CARE YOU HAVE A BUSINESS TO RUN.
Tokeet is nightmare. It looks great at the beginning. But when you start using it, you understand all limitations. Main reason i picked it was synchronization. It is not real time and often delayed. Sometimes even fails for days. Mobile version is worst. It doesnt update reservation. You have to search by name. Also direct messages on Tokeet give no notifications. Calendar doesnt show manually blocked events on mobile. Development team promised to fix it 6 months ago. Still nothing. SEO is bad Your website built of their limited template wont show on google. Also, when reservation is made on expedia or booking.com, calendar gets blocked but you the credit card provided is often fake And it takes time to cancel reservation, meanwhile your calendar is kept blocked unless you manually clear it up. It is very bad especially when it happens on the dates close to the current date as nobody else can book. Calendar is very difficult to work with. I m switching back to blocking calendars manually. Overall if you are a small property management or individual property owner, dont waste your money.
The reports are not that usefull for me and my company, they just show the amount on bookings but not any other info as financial.
The format, reservation manager, automatic messages, website
As they are building occasionally glitchy
1. Lack of a PMS module
I haven't had any problems so far that the team couldn't solve and its been 18 months! long may it continue.
- Integration with Stripe saves the customer credit card details from Booking.com and Expedia so that you can charge them from Stripe however you want. I have seen instances that card was not saved, they claim that the card was not valid. If that is the case, that is great as most Booking/Expedia customers do not leave a valid card!
These are not Cons, but I would expect a few more functionalities for perfection
The look, design and prices - but it comes at a price!
I really don't like that their software is not doing what it is supposed to, it is not keeping the calendar and prices updated as promised. Especially their new version 2, released in 2019, is not at all ready to be commercialised.
works on mobile IOS but very limited and if you need to check info from a guest that works but if you need to convert a booking forget it.
ridiculous support and they blame airbnb to drop a connection and lost data settings. They cannot fix a problem and there is a bot that replies with possible answers or suggestions that most of the time are not relevant.
It was a little hard at first but the app eventually started to make sense to me once i spent a few days just learning all the lingo and watching the help videos. i started using this application because a couple of the owners we manage for were asking for a "portal" to see their house information live. Tokeet has a feature that lets owners log in and look at their individual revenue and booking reports, so I was able to make that happen! I also realized that I've been wasting a lot of time checking all our listings manually every day...
You really need to read and watch the videos, it's tough to start but you will get it. they don't advertise it, but there's a help section at help. Tokeet.com that had everything i used to learn...
Easy to use and it`s not expensive. nothing more
Almost everything, Only the API synchronisations work! If it´s not a API connection starts to create hold events in the same day of the reservations, then when you look ate the calendar it´s all closed because of that hold events!
There's a LOT of functionality. This product does more that most in the space.
The design isn't very intuitive and it's not very clean/pretty.
Great Layout, the made a great job with that. Great ideas and modern look for customers needs
They don't have basic future like a daily price changing... It's easy improvements of this platform. If they will change that I'll sign with them contract as a first ;)
Only connect 3 channels throught API
expense reporting capabilities are very limited
Report features could be more customisable and give more information. Problems with the new airbnb API have been difficult to navigate, so i reverted to the old API,
- There isn't much more this app/platform does besides manages your listings' calendars
We really don't have any cons. Everything work really well. We miss only more integrated cooperation with others platforms like you have with Booking.com, AirBnB, better one with Expedia, ...
Would like more tutorial videos to understand how to use the different functions instead of having to ask support!
The instant chat is not manned on weekends. Normally, instant chat is very effective but coincidentally, my one problem happened on Saturday. However, the team leader replied by email within an hour!
There are many steps to input a unit and it is for me quite confusing when it comes to the API, adding accounts, etc.
There is a lot to learn and it is not always the easiest to work out exactly how to interface with different OTA's.
It isn’t easy to remove a property when you are no longer managing it. Tokeet can sort removal out quite easily though.
its hard to understand at the beginning, is not to friendly but make the work. You can't integrate info when you get a departament rent in other media, and don't let you include external files
Chanel manager and integrated website is very great.
First issue for me was working out how to say Tokeet!
Nothing really, the customer support is very helpful if I come across any problems, sometimes the calendar can be a bit slow to update, I'm not talking days, just a few minutes and sometimes a logout and log back in and it's updated
No compatibility with a major booking engine...I was told that they integrate with vrbo when I signed up and then found out that they don't... The only integration is calendar. What a joke. I signed up for a year and now they won't refund my money because of their no refund policy. What good company has a no refund policy?! If you believe in your service you shouldn't need to have a rule like that. by Tokeet on 02/04/2018 Thank you for taking the time to write your review; we really appreciate your feedback. Our Homeaway connection is described in detail here: http://help.tokeet.com/channel-manager/ical-connections/connecting-to-homeawayvrbo-with-tokeetWe expect to roll out a two-way API connection with Homeaway in Q2 '18. We do provide both a booking engine and a booking engine, powered by the Stripe payment gateway.Please feel free to enroll in our daily "Tokeet Academy" webinar for more information on connecting channels in Tokeet, or contact our Support team 24 hours a day on live chat and [email protected] . We will work on making our capabilities a bit clearer, based on your feedback. Thank you!
SEO hooks/tools are missing, but there are plans to add in 2018
Our cabins are primarily busy throughout the summer. All told, we're not taking a ton of reservations right now and because of that, we weren't able to really give Tokeet's features a serious 'test' of capabilities during the 14-day trial.
It'amp;#39;s extremely difficult for me to use the GUI, it'amp;#39;s overloaded with features and I had great difficulties in finding the simplest options... Additionally - due to its error with pushing rates to booking.com I received several bookings for per night ... Never again will I use the software! by Tokeet on 02/04/2018 Thank you for taking the time to write your review; we really appreciate your feedback. We understand that there is a learning curve in learning a new platform; it gets easier each time after initial setup.

The cons are details, in view of my overall experience, but here are some improvement points:
There aren't any cons for me. I have had a few learning issues when getting going, but other than that it's a great system.
Some of the videos have no sound, and some of the videos use technical language which it is hard for the lay person who is not a "techi" to understand.
Would be nice to see more work with their tasks for cleaning crew, to automate/sync tasks based on reservations. However, their check-out calendar day view is quite simple to view in the mobile app for the crew.
The app is developing so fast that I feel as though I am being left behind a bit and not using all of the functionality. More training videos would help. Some topic specific webinars wouldn't go amiss either. The Live Chat can vary between really quick and responsive to very slow and long winded as you wait for an answer that is trickled out over a couple of hours. More staff seem to have improved this recently though.
I cannot think of anything specific that I do not like, it takes a while to get familiar with the interfaces, but when compared to similar products it was an easy decision to make.
Sometimes there are questions that are not in their Q&A portion but you can always email them so its not really a problem for me
