Optims Develops New Multi-Lingual Interfaces Between Their Revenue Management Solutions And Other PMS And CRS Systems
Optims S.A. (Evry, France), the European leader in information technology solutions dedicated to the optimisation of revenue and management methods in Hospitality, Tourism and Transport industries, announces new developments with City.Optims, its Revenue Management solution for hotel groups or chains and Optims.Hotel for stand-alone hotels.
Optims has completed development of two further interfaces between its RMS solutions and the main PMS and CRS systems available on the market. To date, Optims has developed 30 separate interfaces with the main Hospitality PMS and CRS providers
(e.g Hogatex, Lanmark, Geac, HIS and others).
"These interfaces are essential to us as they allow Meridien to choose the solutions that best suit our needs and to integrate them together, explains Gilles Ponroy, Worldwide IT Director for Meridien. We have chosen three separate solutions : Opera (Micros) for our PMS, Rezsolution (Pegasus) for our CRS and Optims.Hotel for our Revenue Management System. We are convinced that Optims has the best RMS available, but we also made the choice because Optims has interfaces in place with both Opera and Rezsolution".
In order to fulfill the needs of todays international and multi-lingual user base, Optims also announces that its City.Optims solution is now available in 5 different languages (English, French, German, Spanish and Italian). The Revenue Managers login identification now determines the user's preferred language, enabling multi-lingual use of the same City.Optims system.
"These innovations in our Revenue Management solutions represent real added value in a competitive market, explains Bruno des Fontaines, Optims Vice-president RMS Sales & Marketing. These developments correspond to the needs and demands of modern day hoteliers and help to bring even more effective solutions to our customers. It is imperative that solution providers like us appreciate that hotels or hotel chains do not wish to change their PMS or CRS systems when selecting an RMS solution. We want to make their selection process as simple as possible and so the development of these interfaces was an important part of this process".
Optims has two Revenue Management solutions : Optims.Hotel that provides revenue optimisation for single properties, independents or hotels within a chain or group ; City.Optims helps hotel chains or groups improve their revenue with centralised revenue optimisation. City.Optims is the only fully centralised Revenue Management solution available on the market today.
Optims'Revenue Management solutions are already implemented in more than 400 properties around the world, in large international hotel chains as Boscolo, Thistle, Charming Hotels, Envergure, Radisson, but also in luxury independent properties : Ritz (Londres), Le Martinez (Cannes), Okura Hotel (Amsterdam), Sofitel (Paris)…
