When it comes to choosing a property management system (PMS), many companies focus on features, pricing, or integrations. But one of the most important factors for long-term success is often overlooked: a consultative approach.
Your software provider shouldn’t just be a vendor—they should be a strategic partner who understands your business, supports your goals, and grows with you. That’s where Barefoot Technologies comes in.
Every vacation rental business is different. Whether you’re a boutique agency or managing hundreds of properties across multiple regions, your operation has unique needs. Generic, out-of-the-box setups may look efficient on the surface, but they often create friction and frustration in the long run.
Barefoot works closely with each client to tailor configurations to their specific processes, accounting structures, and owner relationships. This personalized approach ensures you get a system that actually fits how you work—not the other way around.
As your company grows—adding properties, expanding into new markets, hiring more staff—the complexity of your operations increases. Without a strong, strategic foundation, rapid growth can lead to disorganization and missed opportunities.
Barefoot is designed with scalability in mind. By focusing on long-term goals from the beginning, we help clients build processes and systems that support future growth without the need for painful system changes down the road.
The relationship with your PMS shouldn’t end after onboarding. Many platforms offer minimal long-term support or charge extra for consultation, leaving your team on its own to solve problems and implement new features.
At Barefoot, client engagement is ongoing. With dedicated points of contact who understand your history and goals, we prioritize regular check-ins and strategic support as your business evolves. That means proactive help, not just reactive troubleshooting.
Sometimes the biggest obstacles in vacation rental management aren’t technology—they’re uncertainty. Knowing when to automate a task, how to handle complex owner requirements, or what integrations to pursue can make a big difference in daily operations.
Because Barefoot’s team includes professionals with extensive experience in the vacation rental industry, we’re able to ask the right questions and offer insights beyond the software itself. Clients benefit from a true partnership that supports smarter decisions across the business.
Switching systems every few years is expensive, disruptive, and stressful. The right PMS should be built to last—and backed by people you can trust to evolve with your needs.
With over 20 years of development and a team that brings more than 280 years of combined industry experience, Barefoot offers a stable, customizable platform and a culture of transparency. Clients know they’re not just choosing software—they’re choosing a partner committed to their success.
The right property management system will support your daily operations—but the right team behind that system can help you achieve so much more.
Barefoot Technologies leads with a consultative mindset because we believe that’s what drives long-term success. If you're looking for more than just software—if you want a flexible system backed by experienced professionals who care about your business—we’d love to talk.
