IDeaS Revenue Solutions, the leading provider of pricing and revenue management software, services and consulting to the hospitality industry, today announced the integration of Sceptre Hospitality Resources' WindsurferCRS with IDeaS Revenue Management System (RMS).

The integration offers clients increased online exposure to a multitude of top-performing local and international booking sites through one fast, easy-to-use and reliable interface. Each day, the IDeaS RMS recommends customized pricing strategies to hotel revenue managers and automatically sends the updated rates to Sceptre's WindsurferCRS, which promptly forwards the rates to online travel agencies. The streamlined, automated integration results in faster and more extensive rate distribution and improved rate optimization.

"The integration eliminates tedious, manual data entry, allowing hotels to more effectively distribute their rates and increase opportunities for revenue," said Sanjay Nagalia, Chief Operating Officer and Co-founder, IDeaS. "Given the fast-paced, competitive nature of the hotel industry, it's important to provide revenue managers with tools that help save them valuable time and maximize revenue."

"We are thrilled to work closely with IDeaS and help its customers more effectively distribute rates," said Estella Hale, Product Manager of the WindsurferCRS, Sceptre Hospitality Resources. "By integrating with IDeaS RMS, we are making it easier for hotels to offer the right price at the right time, and that's the way to truly manage distribution."
