Effective Tours

Cloud-based hotel channel manager, PMS and booking engine. That is the short version of Effective Tours. Put simply, it is about solving a specific business problem with software.

It makes the most sense for teams in its space. They also list Hospitality, Hotel, Small and Medium Businesses and Travel, so expect those to show up in the feature set. As a very small product team themselves (1 to 10 people), they tend to serve customers of a similar scale best. You will probably talk to the people who build it, which is great until you need 24/7 support.

Effective Tours is based in Scotland, Indiana and founded in 2013. You can read more at effectivetours.com.
