And You’re Not Left to Manage It Alone

Every Think Simplicity solution is backed by ongoing support.
Choose the support your hotel needs, with flexible 8x5 and 24/7 options. Because we develop and support our own technology, you’re working directly with a team that knows how it works and where to look when something needs attention. That same hands-on approach starts with implementation.

‍We minimize disruption by:
  • Pre-programming equipment before it reaches the property
  • Planning cutover around hotel activity
  • Using early-morning cutovers to reduce guest disruption
  • Connecting and testing all connections, including PMS integrations
  • Keeping compatible equipment rather than replacing it unnecessarily

Most installations take 2–3 days and are handled directly by the Think Simplicity team. No subcontractors.

I came to the Radisson Blu Aqua Chicago two and a half years ago and from that time I cannot recall having any major issues with Think Simplicity phone service. Their support is responsive and very personable and instill the values we strive for at Choice Hotels....oh and their support rocks!

Abdul Husein, Director of IT

I expected switching from a 40+ year-old PBX system to VoIP to be daunting—but Think Simplicity made it smooth. Everything was pre-programmed and ready to plug in. Their team was quick to resolve a cabling issue, and their responsiveness stood out from start to finish.

TJ Wallace, Regional Controller

Partnering with Think Simplicity transformed how we communicate with guests and staff. Their support team is responsive, knowledgeable, and always ready to help. I appreciate how well they understand our specific hotel—it makes all the difference.

Alissa Kujawski, General Manager

Country Inn & Suites by Radisson, PA

The Wi-Fi went down, and the Think Simplicity Support Team got a ticket opened with [our provider] and the problem fixed within an hour when our Wi-Fi provider had supposedly been working on it for almost a full day .... They are the best phone company I’ve worked with in my 11 years in the industry

Melissa Robinson, General Manager

Hampton Inn Deerfield Beach, FL

Being in Midtown Manhattan, my guests will not accept outages of any sort .... The level of customer service and knowledge of my hotel’s needs really make working with the Think Simplicity team a no-brainer and gives me one less thing to worry about!

Jon Schorr, General Manager

Hilton Garden Inn New York, NY

I’m impressed with the level of service from Think Simplicity. When we’ve needed support, from re-programing an extension to learning how to install new phones in our 125-room hotel, they’ve been prompt and proactive.
