Why People Leave iGMS
iGMS is a tool you operate
iGMS gives you a multi-calendar, AI auto-replies, and a cleaning scheduler — but you still run it all day. TIDY does the operating for you, following the rules you set.
Scheduling a clean isn’t getting it done
iGMS can put a cleaning on the calendar; it doesn’t coordinate the pro, line up a backup if they cancel, or verify the job. TIDY coordinates your pros, covers no-shows with Smart Standbys, and confirms work with photo checklists.
Per-night fees add up
iGMS starts around $20/property/month plus about $1 per booked night. TIDY is 3.9% of bookings with a human account manager included — and covers the operational work iGMS leaves to you.

Check what iGMS needs to run
iGMS covers bookings, channels, and messaging, but dynamic pricing is a separate tool (PriceLabs or similar) and the physical work — coordinating cleaners and maintenance — is still on you. TIDY automates the operations in one place at 3.9%.
iGMS may fit if you want to self-manage
If you like running your own PMS and just want AI messaging and a cleaning scheduler at a low monthly fee, iGMS is a capable tool. TIDY is for owners who want the operational work done for them.
