The short-term rental management is at its best with the perfect combination of hospitality, technology service provider and investors. Mapping it out began as an initiative to visualize a fragmented, yet rapidly evolving and growing industry. Resulting in the largest ever published and most definitive short-term rental industry landscape, we have mapped 450+ of the most important companies in the industry.
Next to listing the top property management companies, we mapped leading technology and service providers.
We publish our STR Landscape annually to provide industry leaders with up-to-date technology providers that support all corners of the diverse STR market.
Skift’s CEO Rafat Ali has notably coined the blurring lines between the short-term rentals and hotel industry as the “Great Merging.”
Since then, PMS vendors have recognized this dynamic as well and have been quick to provide the flexibility to service both sides of this coin. This can be seen not only in the respective logos marketed on vendor websites, but also in their integration suites that now include hotel-focused point solutions.

The short-term rental industry is fragmented, and the landscape of technology providers is complex.
The number of technology solutions have grown massively, and it can be difficult to keep up and know which solutions are the right fit for your business. Each of the categories represent key components to operating a successful short-term rental business and the options available to creating the optimal technology stack for your business.
We have helped many vacation rental companies save money, time, and resources thanks to better technology over the years, thanks to our on-going testing and reviewing of the latest solutions.
We thought we would put the best technology solutions for short-term rental on one page for the industry to see and to benefit.
Of course, the service element is crucial. That will never go away. But having the right tech helps tremendously. It saves precious time and resources, allows to have leaner, better equipped teams to focus on the most important things.
The right tech supercharges short-term rental managers to become more efficient, faster and more profitable.
We'd love to hear from you - on social or by email. Tell us about your own technology stack and of course if we missed off any great technology solution. Contact us directly and let us discuss!
