Choosing a property management system (PMS) is crucial for your hotel’s operational efficiency and guest experience. ComSyS Software by ComSyS and ThinkReservations PMS are two options, but their market presence and reviews differ greatly. ComSyS, established in 1984 with 68 employees, has no recent reviews or ratings, raising questions about its current effectiveness. ThinkReservations, founded in 2012 with 22 employees, boasts over 350 reviews, most from the last six months, making it a more reliable choice for hoteliers today.
Are you looking for a system with a proven track record or one that’s actively trusted by peers?
Both products aim to streamline hotel operations, but they diverge in market presence and user feedback. ComSyS Software appears to target broader business management beyond hospitality, with a focus on ad-hoc reporting and control, but it has no recent reviews or ratings, suggesting limited current hotel user satisfaction or visibility. ThinkReservations, by contrast, offers a comprehensive PMS with 39 features tailored to hotels, with recent, highly positive reviews emphasizing ease of use, integration, and support.
If your hotel prioritizes a modern, well-supported PMS with recent hotel user feedback, ThinkReservations is the better fit. Do you need a system with active hotel user validation or one still under evaluation?
If your hotel needs a reliable, feature-rich PMS with extensive integrations, go with ThinkReservations. It’s favored by small to medium hotels, B&Bs, and inns, with a 4.88/5 rating from 343 recent reviews—hotels admire its ease of use, support, and revenue tools. ComSyS, lacking recent reviews and a clear user base, is less suitable unless you need an enterprise-level system outside hospitality.
For hotels aiming to increase revenue through automation, guest communication, and channel management, ThinkReservations offers proven tools. If you’re seeking a customizable platform with extensive hotel-specific features, ComSyS’s offering remains unclear.
ThinkReservations scores 4.82/5 for ease of use, bolstered by recent reviews praising its intuitive interface, seamless onboarding, and quick staff adoption. Users often mention how it simplifies operations, allowing staff to focus on guest interactions. ComSyS, on the other hand, has no available user ratings or reviews, making it impossible to assess its usability.
Given the recent, positive user feedback, Edge: ThinkReservations.
ThinkReservations boasts 39 features, including a channel manager, booking engine, automated night audit, guest messaging, online check-in, and multi-currency support—features highly valued by small to mid-sized hotels. ComSyS offers no features listed, suggesting limited hotel-specific tools or that its scope may be broader and less tailored to hospitality.
For operational automation and guest engagement, ThinkReservations clearly leads. ComSyS’s features, if any, are not specified, making it difficult to compare on functionality.
ThinkReservations consistently earns 4.82/5 in customer support and onboarding, with reviews highlighting its quick, accessible, and knowledgeable support team. Guests praise the support as friendly, prompt, and helpful, making implementation smooth. ComSyS offers no recent reviews or ratings, leaving its support quality unverified.
Edge: ThinkReservations.
ThinkReservations integrates with 16 verified partners, including major OTAs like Airbnb, Expedia, and Tripadvisor, plus channel managers and payment processors. ComSyS has only 1 verified integration, which limits its connectivity options.
If your hotel relies on multiple channels and real-time updates, ThinkReservations provides a broader and more reliable ecosystem. ComSyS’s limited integrations suggest it may suit more niche or internal operations.
ThinkReservations enjoys a 4.88/5 rating from 343 recent hotel reviews, with users in B&Bs, inns, and boutique hotels praising its ease of use, support, and revenue-boosting tools. ComSyS has no recent reviews or ratings, making it impossible to gauge current hotel sentiment.
Based on recent data, Edge: ThinkReservations.
ComSyS’s pricing is not publicly available, and it appears to be a customized enterprise solution, possibly involving higher costs. ThinkReservations charges a flat fee of $500 monthly, with no additional implementation or per-room fees.
If budget transparency and predictable costs are priorities, ThinkReservations offers clarity.
ComSyS Software offers a long-established presence with a focus on business management, but its lack of recent hotel reviews makes its current suitability uncertain. ThinkReservations, by contrast, provides a proven, highly-rated PMS tailored for small to mid-sized hotels, with extensive features, integrations, and a customer support experience that reviewers praise highly.
If your hotel values recent, active feedback and proven operational tools, ThinkReservations is the clear choice. ComSyS might serve niche needs outside of hospitality or larger enterprise environments, but for most hoteliers, it’s less relevant today.
In conclusion, for a hotel seeking a modern, well-supported PMS with a strong reputation, ThinkReservations takes the lead.

The HT Score is a composite ranking that considers 4 criteria groups and over a dozen variables to help hoteliers objectively compare hotel technology products. ComSyS Software has an HT Score of 0 and ThinkReservations has 89. Here is how the score is calculated.
| 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. |
Customer ratings and reviews are by far the most important factor in the HT Score algorithm. HTR does not accept payment for higher rankings. All reviews are verified — only hotel industry practitioners with confirmed affiliations can submit ratings. View full HT Score methodology →
