Is the PMS long overdue?

The future of Hotel Technology

Traditionally, hotel technology has been complex and fragmented. With a lack of technology integration resulting in a set-up that’s clunky and inefficient at best and non-compliant with data privacy law at worst. However, as hotels gear up for the post-Covid hospitality boom, competition will be fierce and new avenues need to be explored.

Munich – Traditionally, hotel technology has been complex and fragmented. With a lack of technology integration resulting in a set-up that’s clunky and inefficient at best and non-compliant with data privacy law at worst. However, as hotels gear up for the post-Covid hospitality boom, competition will be fierce and new avenues need to be explored.

A new White Paper, written by Dr. Michael Toedt, examines why centralizing the Property Management System (PMS) is a flawed approach when evolving the tech stack. It explores alternative solutions that can deliver a truly guest-centric tech environment offering a wealth of benefits to hoteliers and customers alike.

The White Paper answers the following questions that concern communicators:

  • Why has the PMS been the center point of the IT stack for over 40 years?
  • What are the pitfalls of still centralizing the PMS?
  • What is the true successor of the PMS?
  • What are the advantages of alternative solutions?
