Uli Pillau

Uli Pillau will oversee direct sales, major accounts and client services for hetras, which offers the first true Software-as-a-Service based hotel management system for the global hotel market.

Pillau brings over 20 years of hospitality experience and proven expertise in hotel software solutions to the hetras team. He started his hotel career at groups such as InterContinental, Hilton and Mövenpick. Prior to joining hetras, he was responsible for all IDeaS Revenue Optimization operations in the EAME region and contributed to the significant growth of the company from 1998 - 2010. Between 1988 and 1998, Pillau held senior level positions in Fidelio Software and later Micros Fidelio Software including Training Director, Managing Director of Fidelio France and Vice President of Fidelio Major Accounts worldwide.

Describing his new role, Pillau said "unlike traditional software license deals, the key to success in software-as-a-service lies mainly in the service component. That's why we at hetras place as much effort in ongoing client services as we do in the initial sales effort. In fact, it is always my highest objective to provide superior service to my hotel chain customers and this has contributed to my companies' success over the past decades in the hotel technology business."
