Paris, FRANCE - EurHotec, Booth 366 -- SynXis Corporation, a provider of Internet-based reservation management systems and distribution to the hospitality industry, announced today that its SynXis Agent™ reservation management system software is now available in seven languages including US English, UK English, Dutch, German, Spanish, French, and Italian. The new multiple language support will address the needs of almost 80% of the European hotel market.

The flexibility of local language software will give European hotel operators a strong advantage. Hotels receive the benefits of expanded distribution and online booking capabilities plus the ease of use and training from a system in their native language. The internationalized SynXis Agent software also offers multi-lingual confirmations and agent scripts, chain-wide multi-currency reporting, and real-time currency conversion.

"Internationalization and localization of application software is extremely important particularly in the hospitality industry," said Elmer Coppoolse, Vice President of Europe for SynXis. "We want hotel staff and hotel customers to be able to communicate through our system in their own language making the process as user-friendly as possible," Coppoolse continued.

"We are offering language choices to our clients so they can interact with their customers on a global basis," added Michael Levie, General Manager of Europe for SynXis. "We understand and respect the importance of global marketing and its role in the hotel business."

SynXis Agent™ gives hotels greater control over inventory and at the same time helps reduce operating costs and increase bookings. It offers particular benefits to independent operators and smaller chains by providing them access to distribution and online booking capabilities that have traditionally been only available to larger chains. SynXis Agent™ maintains a single, real-time representation of property inventory - accessible by all booking sources. Users always have a current, accurate view of inventory status, so they can make informed decisions to drive their business. SynXis Agent™ also helps hotels build their customer base by providing cost-effective direct access to all major GDSs and enabling online reservations via the hotel's website, all in one easy-to-use system.
