Choosing the right channel management software is crucial for your hotel’s success. Both Globekey and eviivo aim to streamline booking operations, but they approach this goal very differently. Globekey offers a centralized reservation system, while eviivo excels as a full-featured channel manager with extensive integrations and user-friendly tools. Which of these solutions will best serve your property’s needs?
Globekey is a CRS designed to automate and integrate online reservations, reducing manual entry errors and overbooking risks. However, it has no reviews or recent data to verify its current performance or user satisfaction. Conversely, eviivo boasts over 231 recent reviews, with a high customer support score of 4.78 out of 5, and 97% of users would recommend it. The absence of recent Globekey reviews makes it difficult to confirm its ongoing relevance or effectiveness. Are you comfortable choosing a product with no recent feedback?
If your hotel needs a comprehensive, multi-property channel management solution with a proven track record, go with eviivo. It provides 15 unique features such as PMS connectivity, multi-lingual support, analytics dashboards, and real-time 2-way integrations, making it suitable for properties aiming to expand and optimize online distribution. On the other hand, Globekey’s limited feature set and lack of recent reviews suggest it may serve only as a reservation consolidator rather than a full channel manager. Which capabilities match your property’s growth plans?
Globekey’s interface and usability details are unavailable, and no recent reviews mention ease of use, which raises concerns about its user-friendliness. Conversely, eviivo consistently earns a 4.65 out of 5 for ease of use, with reviews praising its intuitive design, simple navigation, and helpful onboarding. Many users highlight that even non-tech-savvy staff manage to operate eviivo comfortably. Edge: eviivo.
Globekey offers no features beyond basic reservation management, while eviivo provides 15 distinct functionalities, including inventory management, multi-currency support, yield rules, and integrated payment processing. eviivo's broader feature set supports complex multi-property operations and revenue optimization. For features that matter, eviivo clearly leads. Edge: eviivo.
Globekey’s support details are nonexistent, and its reviews do not mention customer support or onboarding. eviivo, however, scores 4.78 out of 5 in support ratings, with reviewers praising its quick, helpful, and friendly support team. Many mention that eviivo’s onboarding process is smooth, which is vital for rapid deployment. Edge: eviivo.
Globekey has no verified integrations, limiting its ability to connect with other essential systems. eviivo boasts 32 verified partners, including major OTAs like Tripadvisor, Hotelchamp, and D-Edge, along with integration capabilities for PMS, analytics, and payment systems. These connections significantly expand your distribution and operational options. Edge: eviivo.
Globekey has no recent reviews or ratings, making it impossible to assess user satisfaction. eviivo, with 231 recent reviews, maintains a high rating of 85.37 on the HT R Score and 97% likelihood to recommend amongst diverse property types—ranging from B&Bs to vacation rentals. Its frequent positive feedback underscores its relevance and user satisfaction. Edge: eviivo.
Globekey’s pricing details are unavailable, and it does not offer a trial or clear subscription plans. eviivo’s base price is $700 per month with no implementation fee, offering transparency. Given the extensive features and recent reviews, eviivo’s cost aligns with the value it provides. The absence of pricing for Globekey makes a full comparison challenging.
Not ideal if you need a full channel management system, integrations, or ongoing support. Globekey’s limited data suggests it’s not suitable for properties aiming to scale or optimize distribution channels.
Not ideal if your property requires a dedicated CRS without extensive integrations or if cost is a major concern for minimal features. eviivo’s proven success with diverse property types makes it a versatile choice.
Globekey is a basic reservation system with no recent reviews or detailed features, limiting its relevance in today’s competitive market. eviivo, on the other hand, stands out as a well-rated, feature-rich channel manager with extensive integrations and proven user satisfaction.
Choose eviivo if you want a tool that supports growth, automation, and operational efficiency. Globekey might be suitable only if you require minimal reservation management without expansion plans.
For hotels aiming to expand their online reach and streamline operations, eviivo is the clear choice. Its recent reviews, high support ratings, and comprehensive feature set make it the safer, more reliable investment for your team.
Note: This comparison is based on the latest available data, emphasizing recent reviews and verified features. Globekey’s lack of current data suggests it may not be actively updating or supporting its platform, whereas eviivo’s strong recent user feedback underscores its ongoing relevance.

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. Globekey has an HT Score of 0 and eviivo has 85. 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 →
