“We have seven hotels on STS Cloud now and will convert all our non-Hiltons from our legacy sales and catering systems to STS Cloud. SalesAndCatering.com provides excellent service and professional support that is superior to our legacy system provider. STS Cloud is very user-friendly and affordable. This is very important for anyone considering a change or opening a new hotel.
We decided to keep the STS Cloud system after we used it and discovered it had all the functionality we wanted and was easy for our teams to use. From a corporate standpoint, I can login to my SalesAndCatering.com corporate dashboard and see the properties’ operation in real time. The system is easy access and the reports are laid out well. This makes the system intuitive to use.
Our conversions to the Cloud system went well. We wanted a Cloud sales and catering system for its remote access. STS Cloud works on any mobile device our sales team wants to use so they have access to property and meeting room availability when they are meeting with clients. STS Cloud puts sales teams in command of the facts wherever they are as they prospect new business or manage active accounts.”
