Vacation rental management platform for property owners and travelers
Italianway operates a vacation rental management business across Italy, handling both supply (property owner services) and demand (guest bookings). The tech stack—SAP Business One, Ruby on Rails, Python, Node.js, and Vue—signals a legacy ERP backbone supporting operational workflows, paired with modern web development for customer-facing surfaces. Active hiring across ops, sales, and engineering (10 open roles, 4 posted in last 30 days) reflects expansion of both the core platform and the nascent franchise network, though pain points around OTA integrations, billing reconciliation, and data migrations suggest scaling friction in the property-management workflow.
Italianway manages short and medium-term vacation rental apartments, operating as both a platform service for property owners and a direct booking channel for travelers. The company was founded in 2014 and is based in Milan. Services to owners span consultancy, property restyling, tax management, and operational reporting; guests receive support from booking through checkout. The business is expanding via a franchise model and is actively scaling the property manager network. Current operations remain Italy-focused, with 51–200 employees across operations, sales, engineering, product, and support functions.
Italianway runs SAP Business One for backend operations, Ruby on Rails and Node.js for platform development, Python for backend logic, Vue for frontend, and SQL/Linux infrastructure. Excel and Git Flow remain in active use.
Core projects include a vacation rental management system, API development for external integrations, data migration workflows for new partners, software release testing, analytics infrastructure, and an internal training academy (Italianway Academy). A new apartment management hub in Milan is also in progress.
