Choosing a property management system (PMS) is critical for your hotel's operations. Sphère Informatique’s Chloe aims to serve real estate managers with AI-driven insights but lacks recent reviews or a broad hotel-centric track record. SkyTouch Technology, however, stands out with a proven, user-friendly cloud-based system that’s been adopted by over 119 hotels, with recent reviews highlighting its ease of use and support. Which platform will best meet your hotel’s needs?
Both products claim to streamline property management; however, Sphère Informatique’s Chloe is primarily designed for real estate management, not hotels. SkyTouch is explicitly built for hospitality, with features like reservation management, rate control, and guest profiles, making it more relevant for your hotel. Given that Chloe has no recent hotel reviews and SkyTouch’s user feedback remains current, SkyTouch clearly offers more hotel-specific support.
If your hotel needs an easy-to-use, cloud-based PMS with extensive hotel-specific features, go with SkyTouch. Its 119 reviews and 4.64-star ease of use rating in the last six months suggest strong recent performance. Conversely, Sphère Informatique’s Chloe, lacking reviews and a hotel focus, is less suitable unless your primary need is real estate management. For hotels, SkyTouch is the more fitting solution.
SkyTouch’s ease-of-use rating is 4.64/5, with many reviews praising its intuitive interface and quick onboarding—some users report training new staff takes less than a day. Sphère Informatique’s rating is 0/5, with no recent reviews or user feedback available to assess usability. Based on current data, SkyTouch significantly outperforms in user friendliness.
SkyTouch offers 27 distinct features, including online support, housekeeping modules, guest profiles, booking engine, revenue management, and integrated CRS. Sphère Informatique provides no listed features, indicating it lacks the extensive functionality required for hotel operations. For comprehensive hotel management, SkyTouch’s feature set clearly surpasses Chloe’s.
SkyTouch’s support scores 4.5/5, with many reviews citing helpful, responsive service, especially during onboarding. Recent reviews specify that their 24/7 support and professional staff are highly valued. Sphère Informatique, with no recent reviews, cannot be compared directly but has a zero overall rating, indicating poor or unverified support. SkyTouch’s support is the stronger choice.
SkyTouch features 33 verified partners, including common integrations with SiteMinder and Onity, plus many specialized hospitality tools like GuestCentric, Impulsify, and Aavgo. Sphère Informatique only lists 11 partners, mostly European and less relevant for North American hotels. The broader, more relevant integration ecosystem favors SkyTouch.
SkyTouch’s recent reviews reflect an 8.61/5 NPS score and an overall 3.5/5 rating, with high praise from boutique and independent hotels. Sphère Informatique has no reviews or recent hotel-based feedback, making it impossible to compare hotel segment satisfaction. Based on available data, SkyTouch is rated higher by hotelier users.
SkyTouch charges a $600 monthly base fee, with no indication of implementation costs or trial options. Sphère Informatique’s pricing isn’t provided, and no trial or flat fee details are available, suggesting limited transparency. For budget planning, SkyTouch’s predictable monthly fee helps, whereas Chloe’s costs are unclear.
SkyTouch is the clear leader for hotel property management, offering more recent reviews, a higher overall rating, and a robust feature set. Its intuitive interface and comprehensive integrations make it well-suited for hotels aiming for operational simplicity and growth. Chloe by Sphère Informatique is better aligned with real estate needs and lacks recent hotel-specific feedback, making it unsuitable for most hotel operations.
Choosing SkyTouch ensures your team benefits from a familiar, user-friendly platform with ongoing support and a proven track record in hospitality. If your property prioritizes hotel-specific features and recent positive reviews, SkyTouch is the more reliable choice. Chloe’s lack of hotel focus and recent user feedback make it a less attractive option unless your needs are strictly real estate-driven.

The HT Score is a composite ranking that considers 4 criteria groups and over a dozen variables to help hoteliers objectively compare hotel technology products. Sphère Informatique has an HT Score of 0 and SkyTouch Technology has 77. Here is how the score is calculated.
| Criteria Group | Weight | What It Measures |
|---|---|---|
| Customer Ratings & Reviews |
|
How highly do users recommend this product? Ratings Score, Review Volume, Share of Voice, Review Depth, Review Recency, Success Stories ▾ The most heavily weighted factor. Analyzes average satisfaction ratings (likelihood to recommend, ease of use, support, ROI), total review count relative to category peers, review recency (at least 20 reviews in the trailing 6 months), and share of voice across unique hotel clients to detect selection bias. |
| Partner Ecosystem |
|
How highly do tech partners recommend this company? Partner Recommendations, Integration Quantity, Integration Quality ▾ Evaluates partner recommendations as expert votes of confidence, the number of verified integrations, and ecosystem quality — the average HT Scores of integration partners. Products with higher-quality integration ecosystems are more likely to deliver a connected tech stack. |
| Customer Centricity |
|
How customer-centric is this organization? Certified Support, Review Consistency, Profile Completeness ▾ Assesses whether the company has earned HTR Customer Support Certification, maintains consistent review collection over time (an indicator of feedback-driven culture), and keeps product profiles complete with capabilities, screenshots, pricing, and features. |
| Reach, Staying Power & Resources |
|
How extensive is this company's reach and resourcing? Geographic Reach, Staying Power, Company Resources, Trending Score ▾ Measures global presence (countries and regions served), years in business as a stability proxy, team headcount as a resource proxy, and a trending score based on trailing-twelve-month buyer inquiries, reviews, partner recommendations, and press activity. |
Customer ratings and reviews are by far the most important factor in the HT Score algorithm. HTR does not accept payment for higher rankings. All reviews are verified — only hotel industry practitioners with confirmed affiliations can submit ratings. View full HT Score methodology →
