AUSTIN, Texas - Optii, the provider of the most advanced labor optimization solution for hotel teams, is announcing the integration of its housekeeping software with Tapendium, the leading provider of in-room e-concierge solutions for the hotel industry.

The technology is simple and smart and takes the pressure off reception teams calls with its seamless integration.”
