PRNewswire 12-Mar-2019 3:00 AM

PORTLAND, Ore., March 12, 2019 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- PointCentral, the recognized leader in enterprise-scale Property Automation solutions for short-term vacation rental and long-term residential property managers, today announced they have integrated their smart home technology with short-term property management software Guesty. In doing so, PointCentral joins additional third-party solutions in Guesty's Integration Marketplace, all of which share the same goal: to ease the complex operational needs of property managers.

The integration automates the assigning of access codes for PointCentral smart locks, enabling guests and maintenance staff to go straight to the vacation rental without having to stop by a front desk to pick up a key. Keyless entry eliminates the key handoff process, saving time and increasing safety.

"Integrating property automation technology with Guesty brings another level of control and operational efficiency to vacation rental mangers," said Sean Miller, president of PointCentral. "This integration lets property managers eliminate keys and send guests automatic notifications when properties are ready for occupancy – increasing guest satisfaction, improving operations and protecting assets."

For those cases when guests change their reservation dates or show up early, a common occurrence in the vacation rental industry, the dates and times for the lock on their unit are automatically adjusted and guests are automatically notified via text or email when their unit is ready for occupancy.

"Automation means time saved," says Michal Freier, director of business development at Guesty. "For property managers using Guesty, integrations like this one with PointCentral are helping them save upwards of 50 hours per week. We are confident this integration will make their reservation and maintenance operations more efficient and ultimately help our customers add more stars to their guest reviews."
