Jomres v3 Booking Management System
Jomres is still the unrivaled leader of the Joomla booking applications, offering more power and functionality than any other system in it's class.
Designed primarily for taking bookings for hotels, bed and breakfasts, guest houses, cottages and villas, Jomres can be used for taking reservations for anything that is booked by the day.

It's a true real-time booking system. Most configuration options are specific to each property, including language, and utilise many features unique to Jomres. It enables you to sell bookings/reservations at low cost via the Internet.

Available in Ioncube, Zend and unencoded flavours (Jomres umlimited).

* Multiple properties, multiple users.
* Comprehensive tariff system, allowing us to give you the best possible chance of mirroring your client's existing tariff model.
* Plugin Manager. All plugins, be they modules, mambots or internal plugins are supplied via the backend plugin system. No need to hunt for the most up to date version of a plugin, just use the one click install/reinstall/upgrade functionality (CURL must be enabled). All plugins are free.
* Inline updates. Upgrading your version could not be easier, just click on the Updates button in the administrator's control panel and let Jomres upgrade itself for you.
* Charge your guests deposits. A standard install of Jomres includes a paypal gateway so that you can start charging for bookings immediately.
* Different search combinations. Jomres offers several search modules that you can customise to change how you display search options to your users.
* Smart discounting. Depending on your property type you can offer different types of discounts.
* More configuration options than we've ever counted! Use the administrator section to configure sitewide options, and log into the front end of Joomla to configure and manage your individual properties.
* Guests receive instant confirmation of their reservation, without having to wait for you to answer their availability and pricing emails. This stops guests from shopping around for other accommodation.
* Under development for more than 3 years. Jomres is no fly-by-night operation. We are here and here to stay.
* AJAX booking form. Calculates room/property availability and pricing according to the requirements of the customer, right there and then.
* Templating system used throughout. Customise Jomres to look how you want it to look.
* Multiple tariffs. Three different tariff editing modes ensure you have the system _you_ need to configure your tariffs to work just how you want them.
* Minicomponents. Unique to Jomres, enables you to plug in your own functionality and modify how Jomres works.
* Full multi-language support. Use the built in editing functionality to customise the language text for each and every property on the system.
* Payment gateways.
* Huge knowledge base and renowned support.

* No third party interference. Start taking online reservations today.
* Just one £50 payment (Jomres Solo).
* No set up fees.
* No commission on reservations (unless it's you that's charging).
* No transaction or reservation fees.
* No long-term contract.

Everything we need by funkyhut, June 28, 2008
I've been with Jomres since v2.6. After going through the hoop of setting it up, which at times was frustrating and difficult to understand, it has worked really well for about a year and our Guests love it.
I've just been through the upgrade (free) to v3.1. What an improvement! The install is now simple, the set up is much more intuitive, the support documentation makes sense and is easy to find and follow and the included templates are professionally done and look great. You really can use the out-of-the-box look without digging into code to make changes.
For anyone actally using the day to day functions to manage bookings, the process flow is simple and logical. The added ability to email Guest confirmations and change bookings after they have been confirmed actually makes Jomres a joy to use.
I've also found that the support (ticket system and forum) is fast, accurate and to the point with almost all my questions answered within 24 hours.
I'm a user with almost no programming experience and was new to Joomla too. Jomres on Joomla 1.5 really does not require any prevous experience with either if you follow the Jomres support documentation! There is a free demo version which you can set up and then convert to your real site when you buy with no changes to be made.
If you are looking for an online real time booking system for your small hotel, guesthoue or villa then I can honestly recommend Jomres as the answer to your needs.

The best booking managment system out there! by jernej.c, June 15, 2008
1 of 1 people find this review helpful:
I've been using Jomres for about a year now. And the thing I love about it is, that it's very flexible. I use it for Yacht Charter, Accomodations ( apartments, hotels, villas etc.. ), Sailing School and much more. Basically you can use it for pretty much everything. And it's also very user friendly, either if your a customer or a manager, you shouldn't have any problems at all.

And above all that, theres a great support team behind the project which wont let you down if you happen to run into a problem, or maybe mess something up ;p

Anyway, if your looking for a reservation system of any kind, I would highly recommend Jomres !


Excellent Value with lots of prospects by dundashotels, June 5, 2008
1 of 3 people find this review helpful:
I have been using Jomres for the last 5 months for a small hotel, and it has met most of our requirements. Jomres is easy to use, suitable for small- to medium-sized properties, easy to modify and customize with their templates, and of course excellent value for what you're paying. Great community and support. Occasionally some bugs but they were fixed in a flash.

My experience:
Installation & Setup: 4/5
Documentation: 4/5
Support: 7/5 :)
Cost: 5/5
Flexibility: 5/5

Wish list: improved accounting and reporting

Amazing! by slogen123, June 2, 2008
0 of 2 people find this review helpful:
I've been using Jomres for a long time, and have used it for four separate clients. This system does not only provide most functionality found in other, stand-alone applications, but its interface and ease of use is what really made the deciding factor for many of my clients. Support is top-notch, and a plugin-based architecture allows anybody with some PHP skills to easily extend the system to do whatever you need to do. Highly recommended product!


By far the best booking component available by piranha, June 1, 2008
0 of 2 people find this review helpful:
This is by far the most complete, easy to use, highly customizable real-time booking component. Also has a lot of great plugins available to extend it`s functionality. I have (till now) one accommodation booking portal (with studios, apartments, hotels, hostels, camp areas, villas and others) and an apartments booking website up and running in no time.
Also, the support from Vince and Hazel was absolutely great. They answered in no time, even if sometimes my questions were not about Jomres only.
I recommend Jomres to any property manager that wants an easy to use and also powerful, full featured, secure online booking system.


Highly recommended! by Strats, May 31, 2008
0 of 2 people find this review helpful:
We are currently using 3 licenses. Excellent booking system, give all options needed for property reservations, either properties are hotels (multi rooms) or villas (apartements). It is also a great “real estate – property listing” application and with a bit of template customization, it can be better to any other property listing application. It is worth to mention that the support provided is excellent, both ticket and forum replies.

Highly recommended!


Great booking system : Great support by alexhruby, May 3, 2008
0 of 2 people find this review helpful:
We are using jomres v3 for our hotel site with a modified template Hazel created. She got the whole site up and running in a couple days.
We had trouble in the beginning with our hosting provider which we had to change eventually on a recommendation of Vince. We are very happy now with the hosting and jomres.
The support is fast - usually within minutes! - and right to the point.
Highly recommended extension!


Great Product, Unparalleled Support by camotec, March 25, 2008
0 of 2 people find this review helpful:
In the beginning I had a few issues getting this software working on our servers and Vince was not only quick to replay but he also help us get Jomres working on our servers. I thought this was well above the call of duty by his side and as a result I will be purchasing this software for our Company.

The software is very flexible and can be tailored to most setups

My only want would be to have a lightbox style property display and slidshow as this will add a new level of polish to the already professional system. (So if anyone wants to make a plugin for this. that would be great! let me know :D)

Overall very good, but I couldn't use it. by datawebusa, March 15, 2008
0 of 1 people find this review helpful:
Jomres offers a 15-day trial of the software. I suggest you download and install the trial, and then COMPLETELY set it up to work w/your hotel(s). This is the only way you're going to discover if jomres is right for you.

After a thorough evaluation of jomres we realized we couldn't use it. The way it displays weekend rates just doesn't work well.

The system DOES allow us to enter unique rates for each day. But when a visitor enters the dates of their stay, only the rooms are listed, no rates. You have to select each room type individually to see the rate. So the visitor has to select a room type to see the rate, deselect the room, and then select the next room type to see the rate, then deselect the room, etc. This is a silly process for trying to just get a rate. After entering a date for my stay, all available room types AND THE RATES should appear on a single page so the guest can select and book a room. Jomres apparently cannot do that.

Additionally, if you're a U.S.-based hotel, you're going to find yourself spending much time in the language file changing terms. For example, what we in the USA call 'rates', jomres calls 'tariffs'. But that's simple.


That's what I expected by olav, February 25, 2008
0 of 1 people find this review helpful:
Dealing with Jomres since January 2007 I must say that it fullfills my expectations completely. More than that it gives great possibilities to offer a helpfull product especially to smaller hotels and also appartment-owners. The variety for offering my clients the possibilities to customize their offers themselves or using my service was a real success for all.
The support by vince and his crew is really quick and helpfull. For me THE solution for rentals of all kind


The servie is very good! by fazk, January 18, 2008

It's a great booking system by wildwyre, January 13, 2008

Best online booking system for vacation rentals by lavers69, October 18, 2007
0 of 1 people find this review helpful:
I read some of the earlier reviews about Jomres and it is true what most people say. The support is excellent and once you're up and running the system is straight forward. As with all these components you need to thoroughly read the support documentation first and it does take a bit of getting used to. That said, if I can install it (and I ain't no php boffin)then anyone can. Jomres is about 100 times simpler to install than Open Realty. Vince and Hazel behind Jomres are top notch people as well.


Need Reservations! - look no further by Boosnampet, October 15, 2007
0 of 1 people find this review helpful:
Out of the box, this component does what it says and a lot more. The support is about the best there is and seems to be available almost 24 hours a day. And you need little or no technical experience to get it running on your site without any customization. If that is you, buy it!
There is a BUT however.
I found problems going beyond the out of the box implementation. The documentation is comprehensive but not well presented in that answers, whilst almost always there, are often hard to find simply because you don't know exactly what you are looking for or where to look. For an experienced programmer that may not be a problem but for a person with little technical skill it's hard and frustrating. Often I am looking for a simple, how do I do answer but instead find a comprehensive, in depth technical thesis from which more reasearch and learning is required to understand the answer I'm looking for.
And....
There are many tantalizing and great sounding add ons available but you really need to know what is going on to make some of them work. Well beyond my ability.
However.......
Because Vince seems willing to answer and deal with even the most simple of questions, none of the above is a real problem unless you feel guilty, as I do, about always bugging him.
I'd recommend, without reservation (!), Jomres to anyone who needs booking on their web site but if want to configure it further and you don't know patTemplates, some PHP and a whole lot of HTML you will either be submitting daily tickets or spending hours looking for answers.
