Start with operations
List current channels, room count, rate types, and the people responsible for updates. The best platform is the one your team can use reliably, not the one with the longest feature list.
Check the quality of connections with Booking.com, Airbnb, Expedia, your PMS, and booking engine.
Test essential functions
Ask to see rate, restriction, and availability updates in a live demonstration. Also inspect booking alerts, error handling, synchronization logs, and the process for blocking a room.
Support availability, language, service hours, and transparent billing matter as much as the interface.
Prepare the launch
Clean up room categories, rate plans, and policies on every OTA before connecting. An inconsistent structure creates errors even with a strong tool.
Schedule manual checks after launch and document what the team should do if synchronization fails.
