We've been in this business for 14 years, focussing on just the one product to make it the absolute best in it's class. Our competitors copy our features, but we do it first and we do it best.
Actively developed, in 2018 alone we released 11 new versions.
The Core system is free, if you want a simple booking or reservation system for your hotel or villa website then the free core system is all you need to get up and running. If you decide you want to add functionality later on then you can upgrade your Jomres membership which allows you to install any of the 160+ plugins available through the easy to use Jomres Plugin Manager. We also support third party developers, who offer 80+ plugins of their own.
There's no need to buy a plugin for managing multiple properties, as the multi-vendor functionality is built right into the free Core of Jomres.
Works on both Joomla and Wordpress, so if you want to switch from one system to another you can do so easily as the basic structure is exactly the same.
What's new in the free core?
- Room surcharges A new feature where property managers can add specific extra costs to a room, meaning that they and/or site managers don't need to create a specific room type for that room just for edge case rooms.
- Custom invoice numbers Create custom invoice numbers, including formatted numbers like NNN/DATE. These invoice numbers are unique to each property, meaning that properties can easily have consequtive invoice number if required by their local tax authorities.
