How to Start Your Free Bistone HMS Trial

Starting your Bistone HMS trial takes about 2 minutes. No credit card, no registration form, no sales call. Here's the whole process.

What You'll Need

• A Windows PC (Windows 7 or newer)
• About 200 MB of disk space
• 15–30 minutes to try the main features

You don't need to prepare anything in advance. You can enter real hotel data later — for the trial, just use a few sample rooms.

Step 1: Download the Trial

Choose the version that matches your hotel type:

• Full Board Version — for All-Inclusive or Half-Board hotels with package pricing. Download Full Board Trial
• Standard Version — for hotels with room-night pricing. Download Standard Trial
• Not sure? — See the difference here.

Step 2: Install

Unzip the file and run the installer. Follow the on-screen prompts. Installation takes about 30 seconds on a typical PC.

Step 3: First Login

When the software opens, log in with the default administrator account:

• Username: Admin
• Password: (leave blank — no password)

You'll gain full permissions immediately. Full details: How to log in.

Step 4: Set Up Your First Room

To see how Bistone HMS really works, follow the Quick Start guide. It walks you through the essential steps in order:

1. Set up a room type
2. Set a room rate or package price
3. Add rooms and beds
4. Make a test reservation

Once you finish these 4 steps, you've seen 80% of what Bistone HMS does. It usually takes under an hour.

What Happens When the Trial Ends

This is the most common question, so here's the direct answer:

• Your trial lasts a limited number of days from first launch.
• When it ends, you can no longer log in until you purchase a license.
• All your data is preserved. When you buy a license and register, you continue using the same data — no export, no re-entry, no migration.

There's no risk of losing work. More details: How trial data migrates to paid version.

What the Trial Includes

The trial is the full software. There are no feature limits, no restricted modules, no "demo mode". You're using exactly what you'd get after purchase — for a limited time.
