"When we were new to ROH, a change in my finance team left our accounts receivable a mess—over a million dollars past due. I reached out to the ROH team in a panic, and they immediately jumped on a call with me. They took the information I sent them and completely ran with it, getting us back on track. After fully implementing ROH with my new director of finance, our entire sales and accounting teams started using it consistently. The results were incredible. We collected all of the outstanding debt, and now, almost nothing goes past 60 days. ROH has truly been a game-changer for our hotel. It’s a powerful tool that has made our sales team more efficient with features like automated deposit schedules and easy-to-use client maintenance. The reporting is fantastic and can even be sent directly to our inboxes. Plus, the system sends secure, professional-looking emails with our logo to clients, making it simple for them to pay invoices and manage their information. The support from the ROH team is unmatched. They’re always helpful, offering one-on-one or group training. I would tell any hotel GM or accounting team that they need ROH to be successful."
