FieldStay vs Operto Teams
FieldStay is a short-term rental operations platform, like Operto Teams. The two biggest practical differences: FieldStay publishes one graduated price for any portfolio up to 150 properties with no demo required, and it is built only for short-term rentals, with automatic crew assignment and link-based vendor work orders.
Every claim below cites where it comes from. See the note at the bottom of this section.
| Category | FieldStay | Operto Teams |
|---|---|---|
| Pricing model | FieldStayOne published graduated rate schedule, calculable to the dollar for any count from 1 to 150 properties. No sales call at any size. | Operto TeamsNo price is published for Operto Teams. The Teams and pricing pages direct visitors to a free personalized demo, and no unit, tiers or free trial are stated. |
| Vendor work orders | FieldStayA vendor gets a link by text or email, opens it on their phone, and can view, quote, or complete the work order with no account and nothing to install. | Operto TeamsOperto Teams describes multi-language staff dashboards. A third-party integration listing adds time tracking, issue submission, accepting or declining tasks and image upload. Whether staff need an account or a native app was not independently confirmed. |
| Offline support | FieldStayThe crew app reads from local device storage as its normal mode, not a special "offline mode". Every checklist step, photo, and inventory count queues locally and syncs automatically once signal returns. A photo that fails to upload stays visible with a retry button. | Operto TeamsOffline use is not stated on the Operto pages reviewed, so no comparison is made. |
| Asset planning & CapEx forecasting | FieldStayEvery major appliance and system gets a health score that updates daily from its age and expected lifespan, rolled into a 10-year capital expenditure forecast automatically, feeding the capital planning page, the owner portal, and a CPA-ready CSV export. | Operto TeamsOperto Teams lists Maintenance Tracking and says it automates housekeeping, inventory and maintenance. Work orders, an asset ledger and capital forecasting were not described on the pages reviewed, so no comparison is made. |
| Guest guidebook | FieldStayIncluded on every plan at no extra cost, and can pay for itself: every local business sponsor you sign into your guidebook takes a real $5/month off your bill automatically, from the first one. | Operto TeamsOperto's page describes a branded guidebook as part of Operto Guest, a separate product. Whether it is bundled with Operto Teams was not independently confirmed. |
| Bookkeeper and finance access | FieldStayA finance role that sees the bill, its itemized breakdown, and every vendor invoice, and nothing else: no properties, turnovers, crew or settings. Your bookkeeper does not need an admin seat to close the books. | Operto TeamsPayroll reports and staff time tracking are listed by a third-party integration page. Roles and permissions, including any finance-only role, were not independently confirmed. |
| PMS integrations | FieldStayConnects to OwnerRez, Hospitable, Hostex, Hostaway and Lodgify and builds the turnover schedule from existing bookings, with iCal calendar feeds for everything else. | Operto TeamsOperto says Teams connects with leading property management software and over 150 third-party solutions, and the page names RMS and Lodgify. The full list was not independently confirmed. |
FieldStay claims are verifiable against this product directly. Operto Teams information reflects Operto Teams's public website and help documentation, checked on or after 2026-10-14. Rows are re-checked one at a time, so some carry a later date than others. A competitor's pricing and features can change at any time, so verify current details on Operto Teams's website before deciding.
Here's what a 10-property portfolio costs on FieldStay today, with no demo required to find out.
For 10 properties, computed from the published graduated rate schedule. See it for your own count with the calculator on the pricing page.
No price for Operto Teams is published on operto.com/teams or operto.com/pricing; both point to a demo request (checked 2026-10-14). A free trial was not mentioned. Pricing at any property count therefore starts with a conversation.
Try it risk-free
Run FieldStay on 3–5 of your most demanding properties for 14 days, the ones with spotty signal, tricky access, or vendors who barely answer texts. If it doesn't make your week easier, cancel with one click. No contract, no penalty.
Real, shipped FieldStay capabilities, not compared above because we couldn't independently confirm Operto Teams's equivalent one way or the other, and this page only makes claims it can back up.
Every checklist step, every photo, and every work order status change is timestamped and logged as it happens, including the ones your crew records with no signal at all. When an owner asks whether the house was ready, or a guest says something was missed, you open the property, pick the date, and read what happened.
One keystroke opens search from anywhere in the dashboard. Type a few words and it finds the work order by its title, its number or its description, in any status, completed and cancelled included, alongside the property and the vendor. "The thing about the water heater" is a search, not an afternoon of scrolling. Pick a property instead and you get its whole record by date.
Photos are shrunk on the phone before they are stored, so a full-resolution camera file cannot fill up the device mid-clean. If an upload fails, it queues and retries, and if it keeps failing your crew member sees it sitting there with a retry button instead of finding out weeks later that the proof was never there.
Ask a question in the app and the answer comes from something that can read your own setup, not a help article that assumes someone else's. Anything that needs a person, a billing dispute, a consent complaint, a safety issue, is handed to one instead of guessed at. There is no assigned account manager to wait on, because there is nothing queued behind one.
A secure, tokenized link for property owners, with no account and no login, showing revenue, expenses, and net income by period.
Par levels per property; a low-stock item is added to a purchase order automatically, with a one-click Kroger cart build.
The app walks your crew through the checklist step by step, and works with no signal. Your vendors don't need to download anything or remember a password. Every work order arrives as a link they open, quote, and complete from their phone.
The biggest practical differences are pricing transparency and focus. Operto Teams publishes no price and directs visitors to a demo. FieldStay publishes one graduated rate schedule that prices any portfolio from 1 to 150 properties with no sales call. Operto Teams is marketed to hotels and multifamily housing as well as vacation rentals, while FieldStay is built only for short-term rental operations.
It depends on your property count, and the honest answer for Operto Teams is that no price is published to compare against. For 10 properties, FieldStay is $118/month, publicly calculable from the rate schedule before you talk to anyone. Operto's Teams and pricing pages direct visitors to a demo, so a comparable figure requires a conversation with them.
There's no data migration to run, because FieldStay doesn't import FROM Operto Teams. It connects TO your booking platform (OwnerRez, Hospitable, Hostex, Hostaway, or Lodgify) and builds your turnover schedule from your existing bookings automatically. Most teams run FieldStay on a handful of properties during a free trial alongside their current setup before moving the rest of the portfolio over.
Both schedule staff and tasks for vacation rentals. Operto Teams describes automated scheduling, staff time tracking, payroll reports, checklists and inventory, and it is also marketed to hotels and multifamily housing. FieldStay is built for short-term rental operators specifically: it scores and assigns crew to each turnover automatically, runs the crew app offline, dispatches vendor work orders by link and tracks assets. If payroll reports and time tracking are the priority, look closely at what Operto Teams offers; FieldStay is stronger where turnovers, vendors and owner reporting need to live together.
