What is Booking Automation?
Booking Automation is a channel and property management software that helps businesses manage front desk, housekeeping, online booking, and payment processing operations across multiple properties. The communication module lets employees create custom registration forms and set up automatic triggers to send personalized confirmation emails to clients.
Booking Automation enables supervisors to configure room and services pricing, offer promotional codes, and set up discount rates, facilitating guest engagement and retention. The room management functionality allows front desk employees to handle processes related to room assignment, availability tracking, guest check-in, guest database management, and room layout creation, among other activities. Administrators can configure role-based access rights and use SSL-based encryption to ensure a secure user experience. Managers can also define minimum and maximum stay limits and automatically accept or reject bookings based on predefined rules.
Booking Automation comes with an API, which lets organizations integrate the platform with several third-party solutions such as PayPal, Slack, Zapier, Airbnb, Trivago, and more. It allows staff members to process payments via multiple methods, including credit cards, Bitcoin, and debit cards. It also lets users convert currencies and use the booking pages in multiple languages.

Booking Automation Reviews
Simply the easiest and most comprehensive platform we reviewed
Book It Now was a feature that many of our clients had asked for and Booking Automation took care of this from day 1. The 2nd feature we really thought highly of was the ability to add endless triggered emails and customize them easily. For example - the day of booking - 3 days before arrival - day of arrival - 1 day after departure. Really amazing software to be sure.
You can’t go wrong
We came to BA from another software platform due to numerous issues with the other software. BA was there from the outset to help us make the transition and get up and running in very little time. Their support staff have been there all along helping overcome challenges and providing helpful suggestions when things don’t go as planned.
There are better channel management app
I rather use other channel management app, it's not user-friendly and the interface is poor and outdated.
Extremely powerfull !
Really good, i could setup multi units, pricing, automation.
This is really powerful for a competitive price!
Booking Automation
if a person has listed his property in Air b n b , or booking.com or home away ,etc .. and lots of complication to take care bookings, I recommend booking automation to avoid any mistake in bookings and much more comfortably ,since the host will have all his bookings from different places only in one master calendar .

Simply the easiest and most comprehensive platform we reviewed
Pros
Our company is VacaRent and we own the website [SENSITIVE CONTENT HIDDEN] (an advertising site for vacation homes for rent as well as hotels and resorts)
Back in 2019 we decided we would include a property management platform along with a channel resource manager to our clients who list their properties on our site for free. We spent months evaluating numerous other PMS platforms and some of them were exceptional while others were difficult. Booking Automation continuously landed in the top spot for ease of use, technical support, and cost for features.
With their well documented API we were able to easily integrate the 2 platforms (theirs and ours) together allowing our clients to seamlessly upload and download new reservations as well as providing financial reports, triggered emails, channel management and much more.
Probably the feature that we were most amazed with was the click and drag interface for moving existing reservations around. No platform we reviewed had this feature and it was virtually assured from that moment on Booking Automation was the final choice.
Cons
It would be easy to say the onboarding is complicated as many others have written, but honestly we have removed all of this from the setup and made it simple to handle. In the end, we just assign a user ID and password and from there our clients only have to concern themselves with taking reservations and generating revenue. But yes, I will concede, when we first started out, it was complicated. Now... not so much.

Pros
BA offers an extremely wide, and growing, suite of features that make managing various properties a breeze. There is a learning curve but once you figure it out it’s a fantastic platform. Having used others that are easier to setup, the pay off with BA is that it works consistently. We tried other software and routinely had issues.
Cons
It’s a steep learning curve (that is still very worth it) but it is a steep one.
There are better channel management app
I rather use other channel management app, it's not user-friendly and the interface is poor and outdated.
Pros
I had an experience using the app, I was an assistant using BA. Can have the same feature as any other app but nothing so special about it.
Cons
Not user friendly, and the interface is so poor and outdated you won't love using it.
Extremely powerfull !

Pros
I have to say that this tools is extremely powerful.
It can do almost anything you dream of!
Cons
Can be overwhelming at the beginning, but when you pass that, OMG what a change!

Pros
my company team really liked the support from booking automation. They actually do the job for client to set up all listings and that makes it very much easy .
they are always available to help for any question or any guiding .
The best part of that is the channel manager that has integration to all rental pages .
