"When we started looking for new software, we wanted one vendor with a couple of different products like labor, sales, and accounting, and accounting services. We wanted to consolidate everything into one place, and Inn-Flow was the system that we found that does all of those services."
Renish Patel
Principal @
Infinity Hotel Group
"Inn-Flow is very cost-efficient and time-efficient, and definitely worth looking into for an all-encompassing hotel management platform. It’s just one place. One login. And everything at your fingertips. Our team loves it! And we’re saving 25-30% compared to what we were paying for our previous modules. It’s a winner."
Robyn Mounce
CFO @
Renascent Hospitality
"It was very time consuming to enter our bi-weekly payroll into our prior accounting system. Because Inn-Flow also offers a payroll service, they have taken that off my plate and saved at least an hour of my time every payroll cycle. It is done right every week and automatically allocated across payroll periods. It has saved us money. The total cost of using Inn-Flow’s Accounting Software, Labor Management, and Payroll Services each month is less that what we were paying our previous software and 3rd party processor fees. We’re getting more for less money."
