What Our Customers Say
Over 10 hostel operators share their experience
"Before Stayzilla, I was managing 3 branches with WhatsApp groups and Excel sheets. I had no idea which branch was profitable, which warden was working, or how many students had unpaid fines. Now I open my dashboard every morning and see everything. It's like having eyes in all three hostels simultaneously."
"The parent portal has been a game-changer for us. Parents used to call 10+ times a day asking about their daughters. Now they log in, see attendance, conduct records, and gate pass status themselves. My staff's phone time has dropped by 70% and parent satisfaction has shot up."
"The discipline management module with the red/yellow/blue severity system is genius. I can log an incident, attach a photo, and parents get notified automatically. No more he-said-she-said arguments. Everything is documented. Our conduct issues have dropped by 60% since students know everything is recorded."
"The inventory module saved us from a major embarrassment. We had a situation where cleaning supplies ran out mid-week because nobody tracked the stock. Stayzilla now sends low-stock alerts automatically. I haven't faced a stock shortage in 8 months."
"We run 4 hostels across 2 cities. The multi-branch dashboard gives me revenue, occupancy, and incident comparison between all branches in one screen. The Excel bulk import saved us weeks of manual data entry when we onboarded 200+ students at the start of the academic year."
"Stayzilla's fine collection feature is incredibly smooth. Earlier, students would dispute fines or claim they never received a receipt. Now every fine generates a PDF receipt instantly, linked to the student profile. Zero disputes in the last 6 months. The audit trail is pristine."
"The service ticketing system has improved our maintenance response time dramatically. Students used to complain verbally, then forget or complain again. Now everything is tracked. I can see which tickets are pending and how long they've been open. My maintenance staff are also more accountable."
"The gate pass system has eliminated our biggest security concern — students leaving without permission. Every exit is now documented with warden approval and expected return time. Parents get notified when their child is leaving. It's comprehensive safety management that was simply not possible manually."
"The reporting module alone justifies the subscription cost. I get monthly expense breakdowns, fine collection summaries, attendance percentages, and occupancy rates — all in Excel at the click of a button. My accountant loves it. Audit season used to be painful. Now it's one export away."
