Better email delivery in Joomla with Mailgun

 February 18, 2017   Our Blog

Reliable email delivering is essential to building up trust to your hotel website and reservation system

In order to help users dealing with spam, email services add harder filters every day. Lately, we’ve seen how more and more legitimate emails are rejected by Hotmail, others are flagged as spam by Gmail, and so on.

Providing professional, reliable mail hosting is difficult, if not impossible, using existing mail management control panels. For this reason, if you have problems with your email, do not blame CloudHotelier, Joomla, or your hosting provider: we strongly recommend using a third-party mail hosting provider rather than using your own mail servers.

Welcome to our new home!

 September 23, 2016  Xavier Pallicer   Our Blog

We are still making some final fixes, we are sorry if you find bugs or missing contents.

As you may have noticed, we have completely revamped our website! The reason is that with the release of our next generation of products, our old website was not useful anymore.

If you are new here, you have to understand that we have started from scratch. Everything! Our solutions, but also our pricing and business model have been renovated.

In the last months we have completely pivoted our business model, from an hybrid open-source/proprietary cloud service, to full open-source GPL solutions.
