We have only been using it for a few weeks so far but are very impressed. It definately saves us time in creating the itineries for our trips in a clean and professional style. > > **Cons**: We have not encountered any set backs in the software yet ----- ### "Professional Digital Itineraries" — 5.0/5 > **Derek** | *10 November 2025* | Hospitality | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: I've spoken with almost every company that offers digital itineraries and Tourwriter has the best one on the market. > > **Cons**: While the application has improved every year since I started working with Tourwriter, more customizability would always be appreciated. > > I have been using some form of Tourwriter since 2019 and I have yet to find a competitor in this space that can even offer a similar level in quality compared to what Tourwriter can offer. Currently, they offer the best product in this market. ----- ### "I have been frustrated with Tourwriter from the moment I transferred the initial payment." — 3.0/5 > **Claire** | *7 February 2018* | Airlines/Aviation | Recommendation rating: 2.0/10 > > **Pros**: The software is great, exactly what is needed for my business however the whole setup leaves a lot to be desired. The whole setup process has been painfully slow and not designed with my business needs in mind. \* From the moment I paid the setup costs I was expected to wait 2 weeks until tourwriter sourced an implementation manager. \* Training is painfully slow, sticks to a script and in my experience at least 5 hours was a wasted, they did not judge my knowledge of similar systems and provided a rudimental explanation of task such as creating a folder in tourwriter - I have been using similar systems for 20 years I know I already know how to create a folder and they could see in my tourwriter that the folders were already organised. I have to think was it deliberate just to waste the hours of training? \* I was told that I was not expected to use the system for daily business operations for 4 months even though I was paying full price for the licence, I find this ridiculous. > > **Cons**: \* Again the implementation of the itineraries has been painfully slow. I purchased 5 hours for the implementation of the itinerary to suit my business needs, after receiving my requests I was told it would be a total of 8 hours, now the itineraries are created in (what looks like) PHP coding. Having some knowledge of HTML I have been able to change text, colours sizes and perform basic tasks and I feel for an experienced user the tasks I asked tourwriter to undertake could be completed well within 5 hours, it seemed to me to be simple. To be fair to tourwriter stated they would not charge however I do feel that the coding came nowhere close to 8 hours so again it has made me question tourwriter, Also it is now 10 weeks since I bought tourwriter and I STILL do not have an itinerary designed especially for my business. I do feel that tourwriter work the training and implementation totally around the needs of the tourwriter business and NOT around the needs of the customer. The system itself is great however Tourwriter really need to focus on the customers needs, listen to their requirements and provide a usable system within at least 1 month not 4 months. At present I would not recommend tourwriter due to the continual issues arising from the implementation process. > > The software is great my issue is with the implementation period ----- ### "Great software for travel agencies" — 5.0/5 > **Angela** | *5 September 2024* | Leisure, Travel & Tourism | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10 > > **Pros**: Easy to use and offers everything you need to create itineraries, manage bookings and daily tasks of a travel agency. > > **Cons**: Waiting for integrations with other useful apps and softwares. ----- ### "After much research and years of use - THIS IS YOUR BEST OPTION\!" — 5.0/5 > **Monica** | *18 April 2017* | Leisure, Travel & Tourism | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: The ease of use, the cooperation during implementation, their ability to recreate my wishes to a perfect itinerary that works with the industry quirks specific to my market. Finally, the system is never down\! > > **Cons**: A few steps in the data entry process could maybe be simplified, but nothing that is big. > > I own a small travel agency called CostaRicaTravelMarket. Most of my decisions are mapped on a grid. I will research fully, select the market options and grade each value proposition. This is the same process I followed when we decided to upgrade our itinerary management software and we hit a home run\! The software if fantastic, versatile and very easy to use. I have to say the production of itineraries, reports, quotes, and pricing documents are very professional looking and efficiently produced. I have used it with FIT's and groups and the functionality is great. Definitely designed by people inside the field who understand fully the quirks and nuances our industry has\! I have to say for us, it has fulfilled some CRM functions as well. It allows me to keep track of the tasks for each client, and it gives me great reports on supplier actionable lead times and payments. The implementation was wonderful\! Alison is the most professional, courteous and thorough implementer and Account Manager ever. I was told the implementation could take anything between 2-3 weeks to a couple of months depending on my pace of response, as a lot of the actual customization they carry out will depend on the client's specific methods, supplier profile, data entry speed, etc. I was up and running in about 6 weeks. Agent presented me with a schedule on how the implementation would progress, all in a logical and efficient sequence. My timing in fulfillment of tasks determined the speed of implementation - on their side they were timely every time. I read some ones review below before writing mine, and I have to say I find it incredible to believe because from my own implementation, I can honestly say I was impressed at the team work they displayed and the flawless cooperation they provided from across the globe to help me advance in a speedy and efficient manner. I wanted my itinerary in a very specific way, I also wanted two other documents to create quotes and area suggestions. They created all three without me having to compromise on any change. I was in awe at how sometimes I felt I was asking for something that seemed impossible, yet agent would take on the challenge and come up with the way to get it done\! Every time\! I never heard a "oh sorry, no - that cannot be done...." So my final recommendation is you cannot go wrong with Tourwriter\! Hands down this is the best alternative in the market and I strongly recommend it. You will not regret it. ----- Page: 1 / 3\ Next: [Next page](https://www.softwareadvice.ie/software/44973/tourwriter?page=2) ## Links - [View on SoftwareAdvice](https://www.softwareadvice.ie/software/44973/tourwriter) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | de | | | en | | | en-AU | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-NZ | | | fr | | ----- ## Structured Data
