Method

Inputs, steps, and formula

What you enter in the live workspace — and how the result is computed.

What you enter

  • PMS cost
  • Channel manager cost
  • Booking engine cost
  • Extras
  • Room count

Method steps

  1. Monthly stack

    Monthly stack = PMS + Channel manager + Booking engine + Extras. Example: ₹3,000 + ₹1,500 + ₹1,000 + ₹500 = ₹6,000.

  2. Annual cost

    Annual cost = Monthly stack × 12. Example: ₹6,000 × 12 = ₹72,000.

  3. Monthly saving

    Monthly saving = Current stack − NISKA plan. Example: ₹6,000 − ₹3,999 = ₹2,001.

  4. Worked example

    Example: PMS ₹3,000 + CM ₹1,500 + IBE ₹1,000 + extras ₹500 = ₹6,000/month — ₹72,000/year. Versus NISKA at ₹3,999, monthly saving is ₹2,001.

FAQ

Questions operators ask

Direct answers aligned with the live tool on this page.

05Answers

Clear guidance for operators and buying committees.

02What's included in a typical hotel tech stack (PMS, channel manager, booking engine)?

A typical fragmented stack is three systems: a PMS for front desk and folios, a channel manager for OTA sync, and a booking engine for direct web bookings — often from different vendors with separate logins and invoices. Total cost of hotel tech stack spend is the sum of those subscriptions plus support and add-ons.

03Is it worth switching PMS providers, and how long does migration take?

Switching is worth evaluating when monthly stack cost, duplicate logins, or missing automation outweigh migration effort. Timeline varies by inventory, history, and integrations — many independent hotels complete a guided cutover in weeks, not months. Use this calculator for the cost case, then book a NISKA demo for a migration plan.

04How is switching ROI calculated for hotel software?

Switching ROI here is your current monthly stack (PMS + channel manager + booking engine + extras) minus the matching NISKA plan price, then annualized. Positive monthly savings compound over a year; also weigh staff time, fewer tools, and direct-booking gains beyond subscription delta.

05Is this cost calculator free, and do I need an account?

Yes. The hotel software cost calculator here is free and needs no account. Live savings update as you change inputs; an optional email/WhatsApp unlock is only for the switching guide PDF.
