Akia Review: easy to use and works well
Director of Sales & Marketing from Resorts in Placencia (Belize)

Akia Review: This is a great asset to our front desk
Front Desk Manager from Resorts in Pagosa Springs (United States of America)
What do you like most?
I really like the broadcast email option. Before I was having to text from the house phone and I am not the best or fastest texter. Needless to say this is a much quicker option.
What do you dislike or think could be improved?
I wish that there was a way to alert me of a text when I am away from the computer.
