Frequently asked comparison questions
Is StayAddress a full replacement for Smoobu?
Only if Smoobu is mainly being used for the website. StayAddress covers the site, content, simple enquiries and iCal sync, but not the full Smoobu PMS, CRM and channel-management scope.
Which is easier for one property: StayAddress or Smoobu?
StayAddress requires fewer manual steps for a website based on an existing listing. Smoobu makes more sense when the site should be part of a broad operations platform.
Can I switch to another solution later?
Yes. A custom domain, exportable content and your original images reduce platform dependency. Calendar and operational data should be reviewed separately before a migration.
