Our Brand Refresh Reflects Positive Change
Our story starts in 2016 when business partners and hoteliers, Jon and Richard, become increasingly frustrated by Property Management Systems.

Our story starts in 2016 when business partners and hoteliers, Jon and Richard, become increasingly frustrated by Property Management Systems. The software available on the market is expensive, clumsy, counter-intuitive and misaligned with the fundamental processes of running their day to day hospitality businesses.

The co-founders’ goal of developing the broadest range of user-friendly hospitality software for the lowest possible price is successfully achieved in 2017. The system is trialled and tested in the director’s own hotels. This proves the ideal environment to ensure the product is fit for the market.
