Anand Systems Inc. (ASI) and eviivo both serve the property management needs of hotels but diverge sharply in their ideal property fit and operational emphasis. ASI excels in mid-sized to large hotels, motels, and branded properties primarily in the Middle East, Africa, and Asia Pacific, prized for its on-premise deployment and detailed operational controls. eviivo targets small to mid-sized independent accommodations, including vacation rentals and B&Bs, with a cloud-based system optimized for multi-property management and channel integration across North America and Europe.
Both products simplify daily hotel operations by centralizing reservation management, front desk workflows, and reporting. They help hotels reduce manual booking errors and improve visibility into occupancy and revenue metrics. However, ASI’s strength lies in granular data tracking and stable on-premise control, while eviivo emphasizes guest messaging, mobile access, and extensive channel integration.
If you operate a mid-sized or larger hotel or motel in the Middle East, Africa, or Asia Pacific with a need for on-premise software, comprehensive audit trails, and detailed reservation management, choose ASI. Its 4.9/5 ease of use rating across 30 reviews and 97% likelihood to recommend underscore strong user satisfaction in these segments, particularly for branded hotels, airport/conference hotels, and resorts.
If your property is a small to mid-sized B&B, vacation rental, or boutique hotel in North America or Europe requiring cloud-based access, integrated guest messaging, and multi-property control, eviivo is the better fit. With 230 reviews and a 4.6/5 overall rating, plus 25 recent reviews averaging 4.1/5, eviivo supports portfolio growth and centralized channel management for multi-unit operators. Its broad feature set for guest communications and mobile operations suits hospitality teams prioritizing remote management and guest engagement.
Segment data for hostels and casinos is limited for eviivo but robust for ASI. Conversely, eviivo’s strength in vacation rentals and portfolio scaling is unmatched. This makes the choice clear: ASI for on-premise, operationally intensive hotels primarily in its regional markets; eviivo for cloud-first, guest-centric, multi-property operators in Western markets.
ASI scores a 4.9/5 ease of use rating and 4.6/5 onboarding from 30 reviews, reflecting a highly intuitive interface praised for straightforward workflows and rapid adoption by front desk teams. Users highlight logical reservation searching and detailed record management that front desk staff find efficient. The system's stability supports smooth daily operations without complex menus.
eviivo, with 230 reviews, scores 4.5/5 ease of use and 4.4/5 onboarding, with many reviewers noting its intuitive design and fast staff training. The mobile app and visual booking diary receive particular praise for simplifying routine tasks. However, some mention interface customization and navigation speed as areas for improvement.
Both products are user-friendly, but ASI’s slightly higher ratings and detailed praise for logical, granular workflows give it an edge in ease of use and onboarding, especially for teams needing operational depth without complexity.
Edge: Anand Systems Inc. (ASI).
ASI offers 5 unique hotel-relevant features, including on-premise deployment, integrated ID and passport scanning, ID scanning with registration pre-fill, a lobby kiosk, and rules-based room assignments. These features improve operational control, speeding check-in processes and ensuring compliance with identification requirements, essential for hotels with regulatory demands or high guest throughput. The lobby kiosk, for example, automates guest check-in, reducing front desk bottlenecks.
eviivo provides 9 unique features, emphasizing guest engagement and compliance: guest messaging, a dedicated guest app, online checkout, payment requests, centralized and employee messaging, GDPR and SOC2 compliance, and an integrated electronic point-of-sale (EPoS) system. These features streamline guest communication workflows and regulatory adherence, supporting properties prioritizing guest experience and mobile operations.
Both share 42 core PMS features, including reservation and channel management. The operational difference is ASI’s focus on operational rigor and front desk efficiency versus eviivo’s emphasis on guest interaction and mobile capabilities.
Edge: eviivo.
ASI rates customer support at 4.7/5 and onboarding at 4.6/5 across 30 reviews, with users noting professional, knowledgeable, and courteous technical teams who resolve issues promptly. Some critiques mention slow callback times and the need for more timely fixes but generally praise support responsiveness and effective training that eases staff adoption.
eviivo has a 4.4/5 customer support and 4.4/5 onboarding rating from 230 reviews. Reviewers frequently praise support and onboarding teams for being proactive, responsive, and helpful, especially during initial setup and system transitions. However, a few users report difficulties during forced system migrations that led to booking engine downtime, reflecting isolated but impactful service disruptions.
Overall, ASI’s higher support ratings and consistent positive feedback on technical issue resolution give it the advantage in customer support quality.
Edge: Anand Systems Inc. (ASI).
eviivo has 35 verified partners versus ASI’s 22, a 59% larger integration network. Both share 6 key partners including Actabl, RoomPriceGenie, Inn-Flow, Pricepoint, Diamo, and HyperGuest, covering core revenue management and channel distribution needs.
ASI uniquely integrates with SHR Group, SiteMinder, Cendyn, Akia, Sojern (and VenueLytics), Duetto, Simplotel, Vertical Booking, and Aavgo, focusing on revenue management, guest engagement, and channel sourcing tailored for its regional clientele.
eviivo adds integrations with Experience Hotel, Hotelchamp, eviivo’s proprietary tools, eRevMax, Tripadvisor, Canary Technologies, D-Edge, Duve, Asksuite, and PriceLabs, enhancing its cloud-based booking engine, guest communication, and dynamic pricing capabilities favored by multi-property and vacation rental managers.
Hotels needing extensive channel management and dynamic pricing tools at scale, especially in Western markets, benefit from eviivo’s broader integration set. ASI offers strong regional channel and guest engagement integrations but fewer total connectors.
Edge: eviivo.
ASI holds a 4.8/5 overall rating from 30 reviews, with 3 recent reviews insufficient to generate a last-6-months average. Its 97% likelihood to recommend reflects strong satisfaction among its users, particularly in branded hotels (5/5), airport hotels (5/5), resorts (4.9/5), and boutique hotels (5/5). Ratings for limited service, motels, and luxury hotels range between 4.8-4.9/5, showing consistent approval across diverse property types.
Eviivo has a 4.6/5 overall rating from 230 reviews, with a last-6-months rating of 4.1/5 from 25 reviews, indicating a slight recent dip possibly reflecting evolving product or support challenges. It performs best in bed & breakfasts (4.7/5, 111 reviews), vacation rentals (4.7/5, 78 reviews), boutique hotels (4.7/5, 48 reviews), and extended stay apartments (4.8/5, 22 reviews). Luxury hotels (4.8/5, 41 reviews) and branded hotels (4.8/5, 23 reviews) also rate it well but with fewer reviews.
In segments where both have sufficient data—bed & breakfasts, motels, resorts, boutique hotels—ASI’s ratings exceed eviivo’s by 0.2 to 0.7 points. Eviivo’s deeper review volume signals broader adoption but slightly lower overall scores. Recent review trends favor ASI’s stability, though limited recent data advises caution.
Edge: Even.
ASI charges a base price of $300.00 with no freemium, no monthly flat fee, no per-room pricing, and no implementation fee disclosed. This all-in-one pricing suits hotels wanting predictable up-front cost for on-premise deployment without monthly variable fees.
Eviivo’s base price is $700.00 under the same pricing model—no freemium, no monthly flat or per-room fees, and no implementation fee. This higher base price reflects its cloud platform and included channel management, guest messaging, and mobile features.
Neither product offers a trial period. ASI’s lower base price may appeal to cost-conscious hotels prioritizing on-premise stability, while eviivo’s higher base price incorporates advanced guest communication and integrations.
Not ideal if:
Not ideal if:
ASI and eviivo serve clearly distinct hotel needs despite overlapping in property management functions. ASI’s core difference lies in its on-premise deployment, robust front desk controls, and detailed operational reporting tailored for mid-sized and larger hotels in the Middle East, Africa, and Asia Pacific. Eviivo’s cloud-based solution focuses on guest communication, mobile management, and extensive channel integrations for small to mid-sized independent properties primarily in Western markets.
Choose ASI if your hotel needs integrated ID scanning, detailed audit trails, and stable on-premise control with a lower base price, especially if you operate in its core regional markets. Its 4.9/5 ease of use rating and professional support make it ideal for properties prioritizing operational precision over guest-facing features.
Choose eviivo if your property portfolio spans multiple units requiring centralized management, guest messaging, mobile access, and broad OTA channel synchronization. Its 35 integrations and guest app capabilities support growth and guest engagement, despite a higher entry price and slightly lower ease of use ratings. Eviivo suits properties prioritizing revenue optimization via online channels and guest interaction from anywhere.

Where the ratings diverge most
It depends on your requirements. ASI PMS and eviivo Suite™ PMS share many core Property Management Systems features, but each has unique capabilities. ASI PMS offers 22 verified integration partners, while eviivo Suite™ PMS offers 35. Review the feature comparison above to see where they differ before switching.
Small hotels should prioritize ease of use and fast onboarding. ASI PMS leads in ease of use at 4.9/5 vs 4.4/5. Look for transparent pricing and a trial or demo option. Filter reviews on each product page by property size to hear from hotels like yours.
ASI PMS: No. eviivo Suite™ PMS: No. Neither product currently offers a free tier. Most Property Management Systems vendors offer demos or trials — request one from each to evaluate before committing.
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. Anand Systems Inc. (ASI) has an HT Score of 75 and eviivo has 88. 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 →
