Non-intrusive, real-time, guest communication is critical to our success!

Overall, Whistle is critical to the success of our operation. Because our resort is so small, our staff is often pulled in many different directions, and do not have the luxury of staying tethered to a specific workstation. With the Whistle Mobile App, we are able to stay in real-time contact with all our guests, even if we're up on the floors cleaning rooms, or out on the deck cleaning the pool, etc. Pros: A majority of people in the world prefer the platform of text message when communicating with anyone. Now, we have the ability as a hotel to have this level of communication with our guests. We use this software to prepare our guests for their arrival, complete their digital guest registration, provide real-time feedback in regards to their experience and prepare them for departure and hopefully, their eventual return. Cons: I wish the artificial intelligence was a little more intuitive. Whistle gives you the opportunity to prepare hundreds of FAQ's and their appropriate responses. The idea is that as your guests being to ask these repetitive and simple questions, Whistle can learn the typical response and automatically reply, taking this routine but demanding task off your plate full of responsibilities. Unfortunately, like an unsure but capable new employee, it is constantly looking for approval before providing the correct answer it already knew. Doesn't save much time if I have to "ok" everything that I already told it to say...

Whistle While You Work

Our overall experience with Whistle is we will never live without it. I highly recommend anyone in the Resort/Hotel service business to get hooked up with the software. It will make your life so much easier! Pros: Whistle software has greatly enhanced communication throughout our Resorts. Both with internal customers & staff but also with all of our guests. Guests just LOVE the ability to text our front desk and our front desk staff LOVE the ability to get information out to all guests or just some guests instantly. This communication has increased our boat rentals, length of stays and even our concierge services. I would not run a Resort without Whistle! Cons: I cannot say there is anything I dislike about the software. However, it could do more tasks within the software, and we have spoken with the company about the possibility for them to adapt the software to our needs. This is not a Con, as what the software was built to do, it does very well. We have simply asked them if they can make it do more to fit a need in our Organization, and they have responded, which is really a Pro!

Life is easier

It has freed up some time for me, left me with more privacy as far as what my guests have access to (my cell) and so far all of my guests have used it multiple times just to chat with me or make a request. Pros: I was texting our guests as on my cell as we switched to self-check in in 2019. This has freed me up to not only not have our guests text me on my private phone, but I use the automated messages and now feel great knowing they will be reminded of their door code and where to park. It amazes me how many guests do not read their email.. lol Cons: Because we are so small, I would love to upgrade but it is outside of my budget at this time. Also, I have not figured out how to see all the guests who are checked in that I am communicating with. I just see the one person that I am communicating with. User error maybe?

Good Value

Pros: Automated messaging and guest communications give us the ability to focus on other aspects of the business. We would highly recommend using this product! Cons: We're still struggling with some areas of implementation. We haven't been able to fully deploy all of the functionality but it is pretty intuitive. Perhaps another session or two with an implementation guru would help. Though they are in high demand and do not offer many calendar openings at this time. We're grateful the product is fairly intuitive.
