Improvements in hotel technology have been enabling properties to think less about the behind the scenes processes and concentrate more on guests.

Two years ago about a quarter of US hotels were using pen and paper to manage their properties but, fast forward to 2017 and they are looking increasingly to cloud-based systems to improve processes.

NB: This is research from purchasing advice company Software Advice.

In its latest report, the company says 96% of hotel software buyers are now looking for a cloud-based system because it means lower investment costs and more flexibility, especially for independent hotels.
