The solution: Modernizing the front desk with Canary

Mr C Coconut Grove transformed its check-in process with Canary's Tablet Registration solution. Guests now complete digital registration forms on tablet devices at the front desk.

No more wasted paper.

Staff have time back to focus on hospitality rather than manual data entry. Additionally, storing guest data in the cloud ensures easy retrieval in the event of chargebacks, and saves on storage costs.

"Canary's Tablet Registration has been crucial in our sustainability journey, significantly cutting down paper usage," he said. "With Tablet Registration, we've eliminated 700-1,000 sheets of paper per month."

Front desk agents appreciate the legible, organized digital records that integrate directly into their property management system. Guest feedback has been positive as well.
