Deciding between Counter by Counter and Power Pro Hotel Solution hinges on your hotel’s specific needs, operational scale, and regional focus. Counter is a mature, well-reviewed PMS with a clear emphasis on hostels and small properties, whereas Power Pro Hotel Solution appears to be a less established system—yet one that offers comprehensive features and integration potential. Given the more extensive user feedback and recent reviews, Counter stands out as the more reliable choice for hoteliers seeking proven performance.
Counter addresses core operational challenges like reservations, channel management, and automated payments, making it the practical option for properties prioritizing ease of use and support. Power Pro, meanwhile, aims to cover a broad spectrum of hotel management needs but lacks recent review data to substantiate its performance. Would your hotel prioritize a proven, user-rated system, or are you comfortable exploring an emerging platform with potentially broader features?
Counter excels for small to medium-sized properties, especially hostels, with its 54 reviews and 4.73/5 overall rating—hotels praise its simplicity, automation, and support. Power Pro’s review count is zero, and with a 0/5 score, no recent user feedback supports its effectiveness or usability.
Counter’s extensive feature set includes channel management, booking engine, payment processing, and automated night audits—functions that are not documented for Power Pro. If your hotel needs a reliable, well-supported PMS with proven user satisfaction, Counter is the safe choice. Conversely, if your hotel is seeking a new system with no user feedback or proven support, Power Pro might still be under evaluation.
Are you looking for a system with a track record of success, or are you willing to try an untested platform?
Counter’s UI scores 4.6/5, with many reviews highlighting its intuitive, mobile-friendly interface that simplifies daily operation. Users commend its quick onboarding, with a 4.7/5 onboarding rating, and note that staff can learn it rapidly, thanks to its straightforward design.
Power Pro offers no recent reviews or user ratings to assess usability. With no available data, it’s impossible to confirm whether its interface is as user-friendly or whether onboarding is smooth. Based on current knowledge, Counter’s proven ease of use makes it the clear choice.
Edge: Counter.
Counter’s 19 unique features include a channel manager, booking engine, POS integration, automated night audit, guest CRM, and multi-currency support—all designed specifically for small properties and hostels.
Power Pro offers no publicly documented features, so it’s unclear whether it provides comparable functionalities or specialized tools. Without concrete data, Counter’s comprehensive feature set definitively edges out Power Pro.
Edge: Counter.
Counter’s support team scores 4.96/5, with reviews praising its quick, responsive, and helpful assistance—especially from staff like Evelyn and Max. Hoteliers appreciate the ongoing support despite some concerns about support availability in different time zones.
Power Pro has no recent reviews or ratings to measure support quality. The absence of user feedback leaves its customer service reputation uncertain, making Counter’s proven support the preferable option.
Edge: Counter.
Counter offers integrations with seven verified partners, including prominent platforms like SiteMinder, Cloudbeds, Stripe, and Goki, enabling seamless connectivity across booking channels, payment, and access control.
Power Pro has no verified integrations listed, which suggests limited or no established third-party connections. For properties relying on integrated systems, Counter’s established ecosystem provides a significant advantage.
Edge: Counter.
Counter’s community of 54 users rates it highly with an overall 4.73/5, and a 91% likelihood of recommendation. Reviews from hostels and independent hotels emphasize its simplicity, automation, and support, with recent reviews confirming ongoing satisfaction.
Power Pro has no recent user reviews or ratings, making it impossible to measure user sentiment or satisfaction levels. Given the robust, recent feedback for Counter, it holds the clear lead.
Edge: Counter.
Counter does not publicly specify its pricing but offers a freemium model without implementation fees, suggesting affordability for small properties. Power Pro’s pricing details are similarly unavailable—no clear pricing structure or subscription model is disclosed.
While both systems lack transparent costs, Counter’s free-to-try model and established reputation make it easier to evaluate value. Power Pro’s unknown pricing adds uncertainty.
Counter by Counter is a well-established PMS with a clear track record, especially for hostels and small properties. Its extensive reviews, high customer support ratings, and proven feature set make it a dependable choice for hoteliers seeking operational efficiency.
Power Pro Hotel Solution appears to be a less mature platform with no recent reviews or verified integrations, leaving its reliability and user satisfaction unconfirmed. Its broad feature promise may benefit larger or more complex hotels, but without user validation, Counter remains the safer bet.
If your hotel values proven performance, user satisfaction, and extensive integrations, go with Counter. If you are exploring new options and willing to accept the risk of unreviewed systems, Power Pro might be worth monitoring as it develops.
In conclusion, for immediate and reliable results, Counter’s established reputation and recent reviews make it the clear choice for most small to medium properties. Power Pro’s potential remains promising but unverified at this stage.

| 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. |
