protel PMS Software Reviews, Demo & Pricing – 2023

Absolutely shocking, if I made my customers wait so long for solutions for a non functioning system and errors I’d be bankrupt. The company need investigating top to bottom.

PROS

I like the front end display, easy to use and with the initial setup we were able to design our own confirmation letters. That is all!

CONS

Where do I start?? API : Dont let them lie to you during their sales pitch that they will support any 3rd party integrations for you to build and connect your own booking system. 18 months down the line and over 200 calls in we are still unable to get protel to talk through their own API (which took 8 months to get hold of). At least 5 days between simple questions and a response of acknowledgement and weeks for an answer. We were told “plug and play integration” it doesn’t supply this. We cannot use their own online module as it is inflexible in every way. QAS System: this is their own address look up programme, after a replacement PC was installed it took 6 months to get protel running on the PC and they are unable to fix their own software QAS still doesn’t run. Reports: Functionality is poor, they tell you TAA is the way to charge everything extra but it doesn’t show on overall figures, you manually have to add it up. Customer Support: this is an absolute joke, dealing currently with UK, several people in Germany and someone in America who have no idea how to programme their own system. You ring when the system goes down and they say it isn’t a priority and will get back to you, you are queued for a response and sometimes it can take days for an answer. Account Manager : absolutely useless and complained numerous times about no call backs… Their answer “no record of this” Overall I would strongly advise looking elsewhere, hit Twitter publicly if you need help
