Who Cloudbeds Is For — and Where It Stops Fitting

Be direct: Cloudbeds earns its market position.

Choose Cloudbeds if:

• You manage 50–200+ rooms and need deep operational configuration
• You're relying on 50+ integrations with third-party revenue management, POS, or spa systems
• Your team wants hands-on onboarding with a dedicated account manager
• You run multiple properties and need mature multi-property dashboards

Cloudbeds has a large ecosystem, a proven track record in mid-sized independents, and strong customer support infrastructure. For a property of that scale, paying $400–$700/month for that depth may be well justified.

FluxPMS is the better fit when:

• You have 10–50 rooms and want predictable software costs with no surprises
• You want a built-in website builder without a separate vendor contract
• You want an AI concierge (Aria) that answers guest questions from your own hotel's data
• You're in Guatemala or Central America and need FEL tax compliance built in
• You want to start in 30 minutes with a public pricing page, not a sales cycle

How to Migrate from Cloudbeds to FluxPMS

This takes roughly one working day for a 20-room property.

1. Export your data from Cloudbeds. Go to Reports → export your reservation history as CSV. Download your guest profiles from the Guests section. Export rate plans and room types from the setup screens.

1. Set up FluxPMS. Sign up at fluxpms.com/register. Build your room types, rate plans, and policies in the FluxPMS setup wizard (typically 2–4 hours for a 20-room property).

1. Import guest history. Use the FluxPMS CSV import to load past guests. Future reservations need to be entered or carried over manually if you're mid-stay-date.

1. Sync your OTA calendars. Today FluxPMS syncs availability via iCal — paste the iCal link from Booking.com, Airbnb, and other OTAs into FluxPMS to keep calendars aligned. Each connection takes 5–15 minutes. A full two-way channel manager is coming soon; Cloudbeds uses SiteMinder or its own channel manager for two-way OTA connections today.

1. Update your booking engine link. Replace the Cloudbeds booking engine widget on your hotel website with the FluxPMS booking engine embed. If you switch to the FluxPMS website builder, this step is automatic.

1. Run parallel for 48 hours (optional but recommended). Keep both accounts active for two days to catch any missed reservations during cutover.

1. Cancel Cloudbeds. Note that Cloudbeds billing cycles vary by contract — check your agreement for notice requirements before cancelling.
