Tribii vs SiteMinder, line by line.
How we price this: for each company we take the cheapest plan they publish that does what Tribii's Free plan does, a booking engine that can take an online card payment, a website, and reservations, rates and invoicing, for a 20-room property. Where a company publishes no price at all, we say so and the range shown is marked as an estimate: it is ours, not a quote from them. Prices are shown in the currency each company publishes and are never converted. Where you land may differ, so check their pricing page before deciding.

Tribii vs SiteMinder, in depth
Channel manager vs property system
SiteMinder leads in distribution: it pushes your rates and availability to hundreds of OTAs. It is not a property management system, so front desk, housekeeping and invoicing happen in a separate tool. Tribii is that property system, with a booking engine included.
What 'free up to 20 rooms' replaces
On SiteMinder, the booking engine and website live on the paid Plus tier. Tribii includes both, plus the PMS essentials and invoicing, free up to 20 rooms.
Distribution without the subscription
You can keep SiteMinder and still run Tribii for the property, or move both onto Tribii: the Max plan includes a two-way channel manager, so rates, availability and OTA reservations sync inside the same system that runs your front desk. Either way, the property system itself is free up to 20 rooms.
You can run Tribii alongside your existing channel setup. Our AI onboarding imports your rooms, rates and reservations for free.
