News Raising the Bar with New Additions to the Support Team

Dear Partners,

Building reservation software is a complex undertaking. Thousands of lines of code must be designed, written, tested, deployed… and then supported. Over the years, Inntopia has invested millions of dollars to develop and support our software. Based on results collected earlier this year in a customer satisfaction survey completed by our partners, we are proud to announce that Inntopia is making major changes to the Development and Account Management teams in 2016.
