HotelRunner may be a cheaper alternative to MyAllocator, but I'm still trying to (not be lazy) and continue my testing of HR.
HR - 1% of sales through all OTAs (excluding from your own website and facebook, etc.) So, if your OTA sales is below 25000 USD per month, HR is cheaper. They also claim to be a preferred IT provider of Booking.com.
A (considerable) thing about HotelRunner is that they include a quite spiffy website with their 1% subscription plan..
I hate when websites don't have a price. Is there a monthly minimum? Is it enough of a front end to run the B&B? Or do you need to run a front end that feeds into it?
.
No monthly minimum. You can activate their 1% subscription without providing a credit card.
If we compare to myallocator - hotelrunner would be equivalent to myallocator + mybooking.

So, if I understand this correctly, myallocator charges a flat fee of (now) $25/month and your company charges 1% commission on all sales thru an OTA?

Not my company. For now, I'm just a paying customer of myallocator and a potential customer of hotelrunner.
Yes, 1% of all OTA sales. That's what it says on their website. However, I'm not sure if it's exactly 1% of gross since I haven't switched over.
I have to admit that inertia is playing a pretty big role as to why I'm still with myallocator. I can cut down my costs by more than 50% if I finish my self-tutorial of hotelrunner and switch.
Though even after the switch, I'd keep my myallocator account for 1-2 months before severing ties completely. Just in case hotelrunner is too good to be true. Or if their connection to channels is too buggy. Somewhere on the internet is a review of hotelrunner complaining about such bugginess.
