Has anyone used Evolve?

Hello BP! We've recently acquired our first STR and have hired a local PM company. It's not working out and we are evaluating some new options. We interviewed Evolve as a resource and it is intriguing. Has anyone worked with them? Good experience? Thanks!

Evolve is not generally well thought of here.  Most of us our self-managers, which is much easier than you think, and even if you just have to go the PM route Evolve only takes care of the easiest part of managing, the pre-booking stuff.

The real PITA of self managing (and it's really not that bad) is pretty much everything that happens after the guest checks in, which is the part they don't do.
