  @joseph-sennish - honestly I’m not sure which I have. Since I’m working with Rented.com to provide the revenue management expertise now, they provide me with the software.

  I have automated templates set up to confirm reservations. I noticed that when I confirm a reservation it fills the template as I ask it to and after I send the message, when I log onto MYVR it will show the same message as ready to send? Any ides?

  I must admit, at first I was reluctant to leave our WordPress website behind when we came on board with MyVR. In 2018, we had done 4k in new users 5.9k in page views with the WordPress site , booking widgets, embedded calendars, etc. We had to do double work with every new property we added, setting them up in MyVR as well as the WordPress site. We waited five months after coming onboard to launch using the MyVR templates to create a far superior product in February, 2019. We left the WordPress site up. Between the two, we cranked out the numbers above. Then 2020 came. We were shut down for leisure travel for three and a half months. We pivoted to marketing for essential travelers, and as we reopened, our out of state travelers kept cancelling. We raised our Pandemic Discounted Rates each time we had a cancellation. We booked one property for the month of August FIVE times! Our MyVR website really did a great job of pulling us back from the Spring. Our 2020 New Users grew to 10.1k with 18.3k pageviews as repeat customers returned. We actually booked $1,130k AFTER cancellations through the website. Four months into 2021, we have seen 4k new visitors, 5.9k pageviews and $629k in Revenue. That’s greater than $150 per click. Many thanks to the MyVR team for putting forth such a great product.

  @darrell-looney112 Hi Darrell - good questions. The short answer is, no, there are no updates at this point. When we do have news to share, there could be one or several avenues we use to communicate (email, in-product updates, direct outreach, etc.). As Jonathan alluded to above, any sort of transition will take time. Neither the Guesty nor the MyVR team is looking to enact quick change - we want to be measured to ensure that our customers do not experience business disruption and that any future choices presented are done so with the appropriate amount of diligence behind them. I understand the eagerness to know what changes may be coming to your mission-critical software, and we intend to keep our customers in the loop as the plan unfolds.
