Figures were public at the time of writing. Hotel Tech Report scores out of 100; G2, Capterra and Software Advice out of 5. Ratings are factual; the sentiment below is our own summary of recurring themes, not a quote from any single review. The five star average covers G2 and Capterra and, for Oracle Opera, Software Advice; it excludes the Hotel Tech Report 100 point score. Some products have far fewer reviews on a given site, for example Agilysys with 9 on Capterra and roommaster with 7 on G2, so read small samples with that in mind.
