Choosing a channel manager is critical for your hotel's success in managing online visibility, reservations, and revenue. Both Brevistay by Brevistay-holida and eviivo Suite™ CM aim to streamline these processes but approach the market differently. Brevistay offers no recent reviews, ratings, or proven user feedback, leaving its reliability and functionality uncertain. In contrast, eviivo Suite™ CM boasts over 231 reviews, recent positive feedback, and a high NPS score, making it a more tested and trusted option. But which product truly fits your property’s needs?
Both products aim to serve hotels and lodging providers by simplifying channel management and distribution. Brevistay’s lack of ratings, reviews, and regional presence suggests it has limited market validation, whereas eviivo Suite™ CM is extensively used across 27 countries with over 231 reviews, most recent, and a 97% likelihood to recommend. The real-world performance and user satisfaction favor eviivo, but does its extensive feature set justify the higher price point?
If your hotel needs a reliable, well-supported platform with proven results, go with eviivo Suite™ CM. It caters well to properties managing multiple channels, especially vacation rentals, B&Bs, and small hotels, given its focus on automation, integrations, and ease of scaling. If your hotel’s size or operational complexity is minimal and you're looking for a simple, no-cost option, Brevistay might appeal—though its unverified status makes this a risky choice. For most hoteliers, eviivo’s extensive validation is the safer bet.
User reviews overwhelmingly favor eviivo Suite™ CM, rating it 4.65 out of 5 for ease of use and praising its intuitive interface. Users highlight how quickly they adopt and integrate its features, with many mentioning support from onboarding to daily operations. Brevistay’s usability remains untested by reviews, making it impossible to assess. Based on available evidence, edge: eviivo Suite™ CM.
eviivo Suite™ CM offers 15 unique features, including PMS connectivity, real-time OTA sync, inventory management, multi-language, multi-currency support, and analytics dashboards—none of which Brevistay provides. Brevistay’s feature set is either non-existent or unverified, while eviivo’s robust tools enable detailed rate management, automation, and comprehensive reporting. Edge: eviivo Suite™ CM.
Customer support ratings favor eviivo, with a 4.78 out of 5 and many reviews praising quick, friendly, and helpful assistance. Review quotes mention “support and onboarding are excellent,” and “support staff is quick to resolve issues,” making it ideal for hotels needing dependable help. Brevistay’s support is unreviewed, leaving its quality uncertain. Edge: eviivo Suite™ CM.
eviivo offers 32 verified integrations with major OTAs, payment processors, and other hospitality tools, including Expedia, Tripadvisor, and Hotelchamp. Brevistay has no verified integrations, limiting its connectivity and flexibility. If integration breadth is vital, eviivo’s ecosystem is clearly superior. Edge: eviivo Suite™ CM.
eviivo’s recent reviews, with a 9.72/5 NPS score and 97% recommendation rate, reflect high satisfaction across various segments—vacation rentals, B&Bs, boutique hotels, and more. Brevistay’s zero reviews and scores mean no validated feedback exists. Based on current data, eviivo is the preferred choice for user satisfaction and trust. Edge: eviivo Suite™ CM.
Brevistay’s pricing model isn’t available, likely indicating minimal or no commercial offering. eviivo charges $700 per month with no setup fee, offering transparency and a clear value proposition. For budget-conscious properties willing to invest in proven tools, eviivo’s pricing is justified by its features and reviews.
eviivo Suite™ CM is a comprehensive, proven channel management platform favored by hundreds of hotels worldwide. Its extensive feature set, strong support, and positive reviews make it the clear choice for properties seeking reliable, scalable solutions.
If your hotel needs a trusted, well-supported system with proven results, choose eviivo Suite™ CM. Its strong global presence and recent reviews underline its effectiveness in increasing bookings, simplifying operations, and expanding online reach.
However, if your hotel only needs a basic, no-cost option for minimal distribution, Brevistay might seem appealing—but the lack of validation makes it a risky choice. For most hotels, especially those aiming for growth and efficiency, eviivo offers a safer, more reliable path forward.

| Criteria Group | Weight | What It Measures |
|---|---|---|
| Customer Ratings & Reviews |
|
How highly do users recommend this product? Ratings Score, Review Volume, Share of Voice, Review Depth, Review Recency, Success Stories ▾ The most heavily weighted factor. Analyzes average satisfaction ratings (likelihood to recommend, ease of use, support, ROI), total review count relative to category peers, review recency (at least 20 reviews in the trailing 6 months), and share of voice across unique hotel clients to detect selection bias. |
| Partner Ecosystem |

How highly do tech partners recommend this company? Partner Recommendations, Integration Quantity, Integration Quality ▾ Evaluates partner recommendations as expert votes of confidence, the number of verified integrations, and ecosystem quality — the average HT Scores of integration partners. Products with higher-quality integration ecosystems are more likely to deliver a connected tech stack. |
| Customer Centricity |
|
How customer-centric is this organization? Certified Support, Review Consistency, Profile Completeness ▾ Assesses whether the company has earned HTR Customer Support Certification, maintains consistent review collection over time (an indicator of feedback-driven culture), and keeps product profiles complete with capabilities, screenshots, pricing, and features. |
| Reach, Staying Power & Resources |
|
How extensive is this company's reach and resourcing? Geographic Reach, Staying Power, Company Resources, Trending Score ▾ Measures global presence (countries and regions served), years in business as a stability proxy, team headcount as a resource proxy, and a trending score based on trailing-twelve-month buyer inquiries, reviews, partner recommendations, and press activity. |
