“We wanted state-of-the-art technology that would strengthen our entire F&B operation, and the Agilysys solutions were an ideal fit,” said Greg Schlosser, director of information technology at Wequassett Resort. “InfoGenesis and rGuest Pay are fully integrated and designed specifically for the complex environments prevalent in the hospitality industry.
