Oracle buys Nor1 letter to customers and partners

Dear Customers and Partners,

I am excited to share that on November 18, 2020, Oracle announced that it entered into an agreement to acquire Nor1, the leader in hospitality upgrade, up-sell, and merchandising technology. The acquisition extends Oracle Hospitality's OPERA Cloud Suite by adding Nor1's Merchandising platform that enables hotels to provide personalized offers throughout the guest journey using AI & machine learning, thereby improving guest engagement, and driving incremental revenue and improved loyalty for hotels.

Nor1, the industry's only real-time decision engine for premium inventory, uses powerful algorithms to identify underperforming inventory and provide targeted upsell offers to help increase hotel revenue and operational efficiency. Nor1's ability to quickly generate consistent conversions and revenue from the very first point of contact throughout the stay is one of many critical capabilities it delivers to their customers.

In a time when occupancy levels have decreased and booking rates are lower, Nor1 is helping hoteliers through the COVID-19 pandemic and recovery by increasing revenue through upsell transactions. The company has found that guests have increased demand for upgraded rooms and services due to safety concerns, as they are sensitive to room location and size and have increased willingness to pay for non-room inventory items like parking, early check-in, and late check-out.

Oracle Hospitality OPERA is already the leading enterprise solution suite for the hospitality industry. OPERA Cloud offers an intuitive user interface and comprehensive functionality for all areas of hotel management. With the addition of Nor1, Oracle's OPERA Cloud Suite will help hotels provide personalized pricing and merchandising solutions exactly when guests are ready and willing to buy upgrades, products and other amenities that make their stay even better.

We are thrilled to join forces with Nor1 and welcome their team to Oracle's Hospitality Global Business Unit.

Thank you for your continued support.

Regards,

Alexander Alt
