Hey folks, this is Brandon Dennis, VP of marketing at Cloudbeds, the makers of myallocator. Myallocator has had the same super-low price for over six years. To put that in perspective, six years ago we were all suffering through the final stages of the great recession.
A lot has changed since then. Myallocator is now a more sophisticated piece of software. It connects to over 300 online marketplaces, and dozens of 3rd-party PMSs and booking engines. We improve myallocator with new features and integrations every month.
In order to keep myallocator a modern, nimble channel manager, we needed to increase its price (for the first time in six years) to better reflect the world we all live in today. Even after our price increase, myallocator is still one of the most affordable channel managers out there.
We will publish a new feature along with this price change--regional currency. You can now pay in your own regional currency instead of USD only, if you choose. This has been a highly requested feature that many non-US property owners have wanted. I'm happy to say that myallocator is now one of the few channel managers that accepts regional currencies.
Of course, customers who have already pre-paid for their accounts will keep their old price for the remained of the payment cycle.
I just wanted to hop in here and lift the hood a bit so you can understand where we're coming from. We love our customers and we want myallocator to work hard for them for many years to come. This price change is a necessary step towards making sure that it is.
I'd love to hear from all of you. What are some features you'd love to see myallocator have? How can we improve to better suit the way you do business? I'm all ears.
P.S. - For those with questions about our property management system myfrontdesk, it's changed a lot from where it was a year ago. We have updated its interface, added a wizard, and improved our support. If it wasn't ready for you when you last tried it, I encourage you to check it out again.
