Choosing between Exely Channel Manager and MaxiMojo hinges on your hotel’s specific needs. Both aim to optimize your online distribution, but their features, user experiences, and market presence differ significantly. Your team needs a solution that aligns with your hotel size, operational complexity, and regional reach.
Exely excels at comprehensive channel management with proven user satisfaction, while MaxiMojo’s absence of recent reviews and limited regional presence make it a less attractive option. Which product best fits your hotel’s current priorities?
Exely and MaxiMojo are both designed to improve your hotel's distribution channels, but they differ in maturity and scope. Exely offers a full suite of features, including inventory management, derived rates, multi-lingual support, and analytics, all backed by a strong review base. MaxiMojo, on the other hand, appears to be a simpler, less reviewed platform lacking recent user feedback, making its reliability uncertain.
Exely’s extensive feature set, especially its real-time synchronization, multi-currency support, and integrated payment processing, make it suitable for hotels seeking a one-stop channel management solution. MaxiMojo’s limited verified features and regional footprint suggest it’s more appropriate for smaller or less complex properties, if at all.
Are you prepared to commit to a mature platform with proven results, or are you exploring a newer, less tested option?
If your hotel needs a proven, feature-rich channel manager with extensive regional reach and high user satisfaction, go with Exely. Its 102 reviews, with 34 in the last six months, and a 4.95/5 ease of use rating demonstrate strong recent validation.
If your hotel is small, regional, or budget-constrained, and you’re considering an unreviewed platform, MaxiMojo might seem appealing. However, the lack of recent reviews and limited integrations (only three verified partners) suggest it could lack the robustness necessary for growth.
For hotels prioritizing reliability and ongoing support, Exely clearly stands out. MaxiMojo’s unknown track record makes it a risky choice unless your property is very simple and regional.
Exely’s intuitive interface earns a 4.95/5 rating for ease of use, with users highlighting its user-friendly design and straightforward onboarding process rated at 4.86/5. Customers mention that the platform helps reduce manual work and simplifies multi-channel updates.
MaxiMojo doesn’t provide recent review ratings or user feedback, making it impossible to evaluate usability. Given Exely’s high ratings and positive comments about its straightforward operation, it’s the clear winner here.
Edge: Exely.
Exely offers 13 unique features, including channel self-mapping, derived rates, weekly and monthly rate support, inventory management, bulk updates, 2-way real-time integrations, multi-lingual and multi-currency support, integrated payment processing, centralized role management, an inventory grid, and detailed analytics dashboards. These features directly address operational complexities faced by hotels.
MaxiMojo provides no detailed list of features or unique functionalities, only a limited integration count with three verified partners. The absence of detailed feature data suggests it lacks the depth necessary for comprehensive channel management.
Edge: Exely.
Exely’s customer support scores a 4.95/5, with recent reviews praising its responsiveness and professional problem-solving. Users describe the support team as helpful, quick to resolve issues, and effective in onboarding.
MaxiMojo offers no recent reviews or support ratings, leaving its support quality unverified. Without user feedback, Exely’s proven support system makes it the superior choice.
Edge: Exely.
Exely boasts 8 verified integration partners, including major OTAs and property systems like Booking.com, IDeaS, Mews, and Oracle Hospitality. This extensive list supports diverse operational needs and enhances automation.
MaxiMojo has only 3 verified integrations with platforms like MyCloud Hospitality PMS and Simplotel, limiting its connectivity options. The broader integration ecosystem of Exely makes it more adaptable.
Edge: Exely.
Exely’s reviews, totaling 102, are recent and highly positive, with a 98% likelihood to recommend and a 4.95/5 overall support and ease of use ratings. Hotels across various segments, especially city center and resort properties, value its efficiency and reliability.
MaxiMojo has no recent reviews or ratings, making it impossible to gauge hotel sentiment. The absence of feedback diminishes trust, favoring Exely as the more validated platform.
Edge: Exely.
Exely charges a straightforward $100 monthly fee with no implementation or trial costs. Its pricing model is transparent, and the value is reinforced by its extensive feature set and support.
MaxiMojo’s pricing details are unavailable, suggesting a lack of transparency or a less mature pricing structure. Given Exely’s clear cost and value, it’s the better-informed option.
Not ideal if you:
Not ideal if you:
Exely is a mature, feature-packed channel manager with a proven record of user satisfaction and regional reach. Its 102 reviews, recent positive feedback, and extensive functionalities make it a dependable choice for most hotels seeking reliable online distribution management.
MaxiMojo, lacking recent reviews and detailed features, remains an uncertain player. Its limited integration count and regional presence suggest it’s less suitable for hotels that value stability and comprehensive support.
Choose Exely if you want a tested, well-supported system that can grow with your hotel. Consider MaxiMojo only if your needs are minimal, regional, and budget-conscious—though the risks of limited support and unknown performance are notable.

| 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. |
