Sihot Integrates RateTiger to Streamline Inventory Management
Bi-directional interface enhances PMS functionality for hoteliers
eRevMax International announced today that it has completed integration with Gubse AG. The integration will help hoteliers to streamline distribution and revenue management processes. From now on subscribing hotels can consolidate all availability and reservation data updates from multiple online sales channels into the Sihot Property Management System (PMS).
By connecting RateTiger's RTConnect bi-directional channel management technology into Sihot's PMS end-users can update rates and availability to over 500 online travel booking channels and the four major Global Distribution Systems (GDS) from the PMS. The interface will also process booking data made through Internet Distribution Systems (IDS) directly back into the PMS without having to enter data manually.
RTConnect provides key functionalities to Revenue Management, Central Reservation Systems, Property Management Systems and booking engines for controlling distribution across the internet. The HTNG compliant interface will help hoteliers to implement more intelligent revenue strategies by maximising sales opportunities with contracted channels. It also removes the need for hotels to source additional technologies.
"We are now offering a further distribution service to our property management customers," said Christoph Haack, Project Manger, Sihot. "The increasing challenges from new travel booking channels and procedures are putting more demand on how hoteliers have to manage their properties and subsequently their distribution techniques. By integrating new technologies like RTConnect, we can help hotels remain flexible and remove the stress of seeking new systems to meet those revenue management requirements."
"With an increasing proportion of hotel reservations being generated online, it is no longer feasible for hoteliers to manually update inventory on various travel portals independently. Hence developing the process to automate the transfer of rates and availability as well as transferring externally generated bookings into a hotel's PMS is a pioneering achievement as this works bi-directional for all 500+ connected channels" comments Ragnar Strerath, VP Product Development. "Our aim is to help simplify hoteliers' workflow and streamline industry procedures. With this partnership hoteliers can now use their Sihot PMS not only for property management but also to improve the efficiency of managing numerous internet distribution channels."
