Looking for a Lodgify alternative?
Vortex PMS is the published-pricing PMS for every property type running on Lodgify — vacation rentals, villas, boutique hotels, B&Bs, condo-hotels, multi-property groups. Same core features, no per-listing surcharge, typically 50–70% less per month.
Whether you run a single villa, a 20-property portfolio, or a hotel that happens to be on Lodgify, the per-listing pricing model adds up. Vortex PMS's per-room pricing is materially cheaper above 3 listings and scales linearly into the hundreds of rooms.

Channel manager included.
Booking.com, Airbnb, Expedia, Agoda, Vrbo + 300 more. Real-time ARI sync (sub-30-second propagation). No separate channel-manager subscription, no per-channel surcharge.
Setup is free, migration is on us — and a human does it with you.
There is no setup fee, no implementation package and no paid training tier. More than that: we set the property up with you — email or WhatsApp coordination while we build out your rooms, rates, policies and channel connections, rather than handing you a help centre and wishing you luck. No call is required.
This isn’t a stripped-back version of onboarding — it’s the opposite. Our team checks your whole setup so your first booking goes out right: rooms mapped, rates correct, channels connected, nothing half-configured. You go live confident, not alone with a help centre. We give every host this personal setup today, and the AI-guided setup already in the app takes on more of it as we grow — so it stays this fast for everyone.
To be clear about what happens when: start your free month and the hands-on setup runs straight away — we move your real property across and connect Booking.com, Airbnb, Expedia and Agoda to live inventory first, at no charge. Your 30 free days start the day that work is done and you are taking bookings, and we only ask for a card five days before they run out. If you take the explore trial instead, it runs on a pre-loaded sample property, so there is nothing to migrate and nothing to connect until you subscribe.
Lodgify doesn't charge for onboarding either — worth knowing, and we'd rather tell you than let you find out.
Lodgify states there is no setup fee when joining, and includes a one-to-one onboarding call on its paid plans.

Switching from Lodgify
Lodgify (founded 2012, HQ Barcelona) is a vacation-rental-focused PMS with website-builder and booking-engine features. Strong for solo operators with 1–3 listings; per-listing pricing makes it costly above 5.
Make the switch from Lodgify.
First month free. Migration is on us.
No card to start. We move you across ourselves at no charge, and your free month begins once your channels are connected and you are taking bookings — 30 days with the whole product, channel manager and booking engine included. We email you five days before it ends: add a card to carry on, or do nothing and you have paid nothing. 20-minute AI-guided setup. Monthly plans can be cancelled before any renewal. The annual plan is discounted because it is a 12-month commitment. Free month = your real bookings · explore trial and demo = sample data.
Migration is on us. We set up your property, reconnect your channels, and move your bookings and rates for you — no downtime.
