Mobile Web Technology Company Movitas Provides the Mobile Platform for Ocean Properties Portfolio
Mobile technology platform will help the fourth largest franchise hotel operator pursue mobile channel opportunities for 130+ hotel properties.
Ocean Properties has added significantly to its mobile guest capabilities with the adoption of the Movitas Mobile Platform for Hotels and Resorts, and began rolling out integrated mobile solutions to its properties that include mobile web sites, mobile marketing campaigns and mobile communication features for guests and groups.
According to Loren Gray, Director of eCommerce at Ocean Properties, the Movitas platform is scalable for hotel management companies with dozens or hundreds of properties and, due to its visual editor and campaign wizards, is easy for individual property managers to operate. "What drew us to Movitas was the need for platform scalability and flexibility, coupled with the ability for our individual property managers to be involved." Oceans has already begun creating and deploying complete mobile solutions to its properties, including Jupiter Beach Resort, Lido Beach Resort, Hollywood Beach Marriott, Sheraton Suites Key West, Hilton Deerfield Beach and Holiday Inn Key Largo.
Ocean Properties identified several distinct business needs where mobile could have a positive effect, including driving more revenue while guests are on location, providing value-added utility to guests, as well as a buzz-worthy experience they can take home and tell their friends about. Each of these needs have been met with features such as mobile concierge (designed to offer guests more convenience and comfort); mobile ordering for flowers, wine, and reservations; search for nearby activities on and off-site; guest opt-in to special offers delivered via text; and mobile web offers designed to drive foot traffic to on-site amenities and shops.
