SMS text messaging

SMS Messaging | the ability to communicate with guests via SMS to invite them for review. The benefit is that often hotelier do not have the guest email due to privacy or portals not showcasing this information, so they need an alternative way to communicate. Additionally, the world is more and more mobile, that means Hotel Tech should be too. Task Manager | the ability to create tasks based on reviews/data/insights/etc. so other users can follow-up and requests do not get lost. Targets | a.k.a. KPIs. users can set goals for their team to reach and evaluate success or failure. This is valuable for evaluation purposes.
