    Revinate
    Revinate is a great platform for smaller-sized hotels who do not need the advanced functionalities of a larger ESP like Salesforce Marketing Cloud. You do not need coding experience, but if you would like to custom-code your emails you can do so. The automation features leave room for improvement as does its reporting features

    Cons
    Preno
    • Staff need to know how to use SiteMinder.
    • Preno failed miserably at onboarding our business.
    • Up to 21 hours to respond to chats, and phones often go unanswered.
    • Poor linkage with Xero. Cost me over $3000 for an accountant to undo Xero issues after I spent hours going through the setup with someone from Preno.
    • I purchased this for ease with Xero. This is absolutely false as Preno staff were unable to link it to Xero properly.

    • Streamline how we answer reviews further. I feel like we should not have to log into Revinate and log into third party sites to answer reviews. Revinate would have partnerships with these third parties to streamline the review answering process.
    • I also don't like how Revinate will not give direct access to Wyndham franchise users. We have to log into a MyPortal account and then into Revinate using the MyPortal link. It would be more efficient to have direct access and capabilities.
    • Make your report creation area user-friendly. You don't offer much training or help assistance in learning to create reports.

    Preno
    Preno integrates with Light Speed and Xero. The two software systems we needed in our business. The integration gave us more time to focus on sales and other key aspects of the business.

    Revinate
    Revinate is perfect for our small-to-medium sized hotel clients who do not need a more advanced ESP. If you have a larger client that needs more advanced features, I would suggest using Salesforce. If you require more in-depth reporting and automation features for a small to mid sized client, Mailchimp is also a great choice. I do not recommend TravelClick for any clients.

    • Our ROI with Revinate has helped us take back some of our OTA revenue, and for the first time ever, our brand.com revenue outpaced our OTA revenue, due to our email campaigns. We are a small indie hotel and this is crucial for us.
