Summary
When The Peabody asked their legacy software provider about integrating guest messaging into the solution, the provider suggested adding complications by bringing in a separate company – at an extremely high cost – to handle this function. When staff frustration reached its peak, Ryan Lancaster began searching for a replacement solution it was clear that ALICE was the solution for them and they switched to the all-in-one hospitality operations management platform in December of 2020.

The Challenge
Antiquated Software Yields Lackluster Results
Serving the property's 464 hotel rooms, The Peabody staff of 373 employees strives to uphold the 15-minute standard for resolving guest issues.
When this standard became increasingly difficult to execute, Ryan Lancaster - Director of IT at The Peabody Memphis - decided to re-evaluate their legacy task management software.
Ryan noted that the outdated software was cumbersome for staff and failed to integrate efficiently with existing devices. These issues resulted in delayed service. When faced with a technology service that "can't do this" and "won't do that", The Peabody began searching for a replacement solution.






The Solution
Full ALICE Suite by Actabl
As Director of IT, Ryan Lancaster focused on 8 questions when choosing a new hotel operations provider - quickly identifying specific benefits of each option and identifying whether or not they aligned with The Peabody's specific technology needs.
The answer? It was clear that ALICE was the right solution and partner - offering advanced functionality, active iteration rate, low cost, and staff collaboration across all hotel departments. The Peabody Memphis switched to the all-in-one hospitality operations management platform in December of 2020.
