“We are striving to create a “frictionless” user experience for our patrons. Integrating Communico’s Reserve and Broadcast modules has made it a breeze for users to book rooms and check availability at a glance, freeing up staff to offer high-touch, personal service where it matters the most. 

Our launch went off without a hitch, thanks to the great support we always get from our friends at Communico.”
