Strengths

Where each one wins.

Where eviivo wins

Longer track record — eviivo has been serving UK B&Bs for years. They're established and trusted.
Potentially lower entry price — eviivo's cheapest plans can start around £25/month for very small properties.
Booking-focused simplicity — if all you need is booking management, eviivo is straightforward.

Where B&B Manager wins

Breakfast management — the only B&B software that helps you plan menus, track dietary requirements, generate shopping lists, and calculate portions. For many B&B owners, breakfast is the biggest daily operational challenge.
Compliance built in — fire safety, food hygiene, legionella, guest registration, GDPR. Stay legal without a filing cabinet or a separate system.
Financial visibility — P&L, cash flow, VAT summary, tax reports, expense tracking. Know whether your B&B is actually profitable — most B&B owners can't answer this question with confidence.
Smart pricing — rate calendar, seasonal rules, competitor monitoring, occupancy suggestions, gap finder, last-minute deals. Revenue optimisation tools that were previously only available to hotels.
Review management — all platforms in one feed with sentiment tracking, not just notification alerts.
Scope — 96 features vs approximately 30. B&B Manager covers the entire business, not just bookings.
