Dooray! vs Guesty

Dooray! bundles office collaboration: project workspaces with tasks, files and wiki pages; a work messenger; mail tied to calendar and tasks; video conferencing with screen sharing; cloud drive; team wiki; calendar and address book; electronic approval with self-built linked forms; a home/board for announcements; resource reservation for rooms and equipment; a form builder for surveys and group decisions; and Dooray! AI Lite for summarization and Q&A across mail, tasks, wiki and messenger. Messenger and video arrive with every plan, while project, mail and approval are the three you choose among. The vendor publishes certifications including ISO/IEC 27001, ISMS-P, CSAP and ISO/IEC 27799, and the only listed integration is NHN Cloud.

Guesty is a property management system for short-term rentals. Its core is a channel manager syncing rates, availability and reservations in real time across Airbnb, Vrbo, Booking.com, Expedia and 60+ other channels. A Multi-Calendar shows every booking with channel source and cleaning schedule; a Unified Inbox pulls guest conversations from all channels into one thread; an AI suite drafts personalized guest replies; Communications Workflows automate messages across the guest journey; Automation Tools create cleaning and maintenance tasks after checkout; Task Management organizes operational work; and it supports multi-unit, complex and group reservations. Channel-specific dynamic pricing and AI-powered PriceOptimizer (optional add-on) are available, plus a direct booking website builder with no booking fees on direct reservations and an advanced AI website builder add-on. The vendor reports 500K+ listings and 99.99% uptime with 24/7 support.

The overlap is essentially limited to each having a unified inbox of sorts (Dooray! via messenger/mail; Guesty via guest conversations), but the underlying objects — projects and approvals vs. reservations and cleaning schedules — are unrelated.

Dooray! uses a freemium model. A Free plan covers groups of 25 users or fewer within quotas, making the full suite available at no cost for small teams. Paid Business plans (and above) unlock ISMS-P and CSAP-certified SaaS for public institutions and universities, and are positioned for Korean enterprises consolidating tools. The vendor does not publish per-seat prices in the provided data, so buyers should request a quote; note that the 'not_for' list flags buyers who expect generative AI baked into the base seat price, implying AI Lite may be a paid or higher-tier capability. Messenger and video are included on every plan, while project, mail and approval are the three modules you choose among — a modular structure that affects what you pay for.

Guesty is paid-only with no free tier. Its pricing is not disclosed in the provided data, but the feature list distinguishes core platform capabilities from optional add-ons: Guesty PriceOptimizer for AI-powered dynamic pricing, trust accounting, locks management, and an advanced AI website builder. The 'not_for' list explicitly warns hosts who want to avoid add-on costs for those items. The direct booking website builder itself carries no booking fees on direct reservations, which is a pricing lever for hosts growing direct business. For a fair comparison, Guesty's cost scales with listing count and add-on selection, whereas Dooray!'s cost scales with user count and plan tier — two entirely different buying units.
