COMPARISON: The following price and feature comparison between BrightSide and Lodgify is based on ten properties under active management with $30,000.00 in monthly revenue.
This chart does not include all the features of BrightSide or Lodgify. The purpose is to show some of the differences and similarities.
BrightSide includes ALL of our features in our subscription fee. We do not charge additional fees for features, unlike Lodgify.
Lodgify Service Tiers
Lodgify offers three tiers of service plans: Starter, Pro, and Ultimate. The only “add-on” we found on their website is their dynamic pricing tool. They charge 0.8% to use this feature. We use ten units in our comparison.
- Starter: The Lodgify Starter plan is for people with only a few properties. For ten units, the monthly subscription fee is just $64. However, after adding the 1.9% booking fee, you would pay $634. It doesn’t make any sense to use this plan. Even if you manage just two properties with an average monthly revenue of $3,500 each, you would pay $161, which is $82 more than their Pro plan.
- Pro: Stepping up to the Lodgify Pro plan allows you to drop the booking fees while providing more features. This level doesn’t provide any property management or owner management modules.
- Ultimate: Their Ultimate plan offers the most. If you manage properties for other owners, and need cleaning management, this plan is the only Lodgify plan that would work for you in our opinion.
