Lodgit Desk

If you are one of those small business owners in the hotel and accommodation sector, then you know how hard it is to keep track of reservations especially if you have more than one location available. Thus, a centralized reception of sorts is what you'd need, but building that physically would require funds you most probably do not have or do not want to invest.

A great alternative could be Lodgit Desk, an application that acts exactly as what was described above, of course, without requiring a huge financial investment.

The first thing I noticed is how well-organized everything is within the application interface. The icons and descriptions used are intuitive, leaving the user with one single task, that is to add information and create a system that works best for all the bookings that will follow shortly.

It's also worth noting that this program allows the user to keep track of more than one accommodation spot, thus acting as a centralized office for all of your locations. Each particular location can be seen on the left side of the app interface. Once you click on one of these areas, you'll be presented with an up-to-date list of bookings. The data needs to be added by the user manually.

Right, so you have all your bookings added to the app, probably with color codes the app itself suggests, so that you do not mistake one visitor for another. Still, what happens if special requests are made? You still have to keep track of those too, right? Well, the app allows one to add to each booking extra notes and even letters or other elements that might contain important information on the reservations made at your places.

A cashbook and financial section will help you understand how well your business is going, while the prices section will help with discovering the best possible sum of money you can charge for the offered accommodation. Lodgit Desk is what most would call a virtual centralized reception that offers a very simple way of keeping your hotels in order.
