Golden Phoenix Hotel & Casino Selects MICROS 9700 Hospitality Management System as Part of $3.5 Million Renovation

"As an established hospitality company, we have had a very positive relationship with MICROS in our other hotel properties and believe MICROS is the best choice for the Golden Phoenix," stated Ally Visram, Chief Operating Officer of Vista Hospitality Company. "Compared to other products on the market, we found that the 9700 HMS offers the best accounting controls at a very favorable price point. We also know that MICROS has the most user- friendly POS system and provides exceptional technical support. We are looking forward to having the system up and running for our grand re-opening later this year."

Ed Chapel, MICROS Vice President of Distribution for the West Coast, noted, "The arsenal of tools built into the 9700 HMS will provide the ultimate guest service for Golden Phoenix customers. The benefits of the 9700 HMS, including stability and advanced functionality in an easy-to-use native

Windows(R) environment using open-system hardware, has already been proven in dozens of area casino properties. The Golden Phoenix chose MICROS for our enhanced capabilities and in addition, an upgrade to its legacy system would have required a total retrofit of its existing vendor's hardware. MICROS is known for preserving our customers' investments by allowing legacy hardware to operate with the newest software versions thus not sacrificing the original POS investment. And the Golden Phoenix will benefit from for the local support we provide in Reno, Nevada. We're proud to have Golden Phoenix as a new customer and part of our expanding client list of casino resort properties."

The Windows(R) 2000 based 9700 Hospitality Management System (HMS), specifically designed for the Casino Industry, offers POS anywhere, with reporting and configuration everywhere. The 9700's Remote Management Console (RMC), which includes an easy to use Configurator, an HTML-based Report Writer, and the Autosequencer, offers a simplified and remotely accessible tool to manage the business from any location.
