Leading European Channel Management Company, availpro, announced that it has completed the implementation of seamless 2-way connectivity with the MICROS-Fidelio Suite8 Property Management System.

The availpro.com integration with MICROS-Fidelio Suite8 means that availability is automatically distributed to the major third party booking sites each time it changes in the Suite8 PMS. When reservations occur on any booking site, availpro automatically sends them in real time directly to the Property Management System: there's no need to register any bookings e-mails or faxes emanating from distribution sites. The system can be considered as completely seamless connectivity between all distribution sites and the PMS.

Philippe Lamarche, Executive Chairman of availpro says "We are very proud of this interface which will bring increased efficiency and a multitude of other benefits to hotel owners: central inventory is posted to every online channel in real time, directly from the reception desk, 24 hours a day, 365 days a year. This means higher booking revenue, inventory and rate parity for every channel. Additionally, there's no need for staff to re-key booking site reservation information into the property management system, and no additional training needed: online bookings work seamlessly with the usual booking process while reducing costs and effort, helping you to concentrate on pricing strategies rather than repetitive tasks!"

Guillaume Bourdon, Revenue and Distribution Manager for La Cour des Augustins in Geneva who use the interface, had the following to say: "The team at availpro.com and MICROS-Fidelio have delivered a highly functional, reliable and stable interface for La Cour des Augustins which means we can use the MICROS-Fidelio Suite8 as a single-view inventory distribution tool. Available room inventory uploads seamlessly and bookings are delivered linked to the correct profile information. This saves hours of work previously required to register the bookings in the former Fidelio Front Office and update availability on the availpro.com platform."

Availpro has been offering seamless Property Management System connectivity to hotel owners for eight years now, integrating numerous property management systems during that time including MICROS-Fidelio Suite8, Amadeus Frontrez, Protel, Medialog, Jazotel...
