The Different Trends of Hospitality Technology That Hoteliers Can Apply

What are the different trends for hotel software & hospitality technology for hoteliers? Originally appeared on Quora: the place to gain and share knowledge, empowering people to learn from others and better understand the world.

Throughout the last few years, hundreds of software and applications have stepped into the world of hospitality.

Some of them were really amazing, while others were just BS.

Anyways, hoteliers these days are using different tools and software to gear up their business operations, and the best ones are.

Cloud based Booking system

The first that every hotelier is using is cloud based booking system.

It’s not just trendy and add a cutting-edge look to a hotel’s reservation system, but with computerized booking system, hoteliers are now receiving hundreds of bookings all over the web.

And the troubles of using pen and a stack of papers, well it’s long gone…..

Channel Manager

The first thing that hotelier wants most is profit. And to make profit, they need to have more bookings.

While it was difficult before to sell inventories through different OTAs and travel agents, the advanced Channel Manager made it whole lotta easier to distribute and manage inventories though OTAs.

And you know, with the help of OTAs hoteliers are now selling their inventories like crazy and generating much more revenue.

And this Channel Manager is not being used in Hotel industry, small rental business owners who make money selling their rooms through Airbnb, HomeAway, and Housli are also using Channel manager to manage their inventories.

There are other software and tools that you can find in the hospitality world today, and with the right usage of them, a hotelier can easily operate his business with complete peace of mind.

Hope it helps

Cheer…..
