Hotelogix, an enterprise-grade cloud-based Hotel Property Management System provider, has added several operationally imperative features to its Hotel PMS in 2021, primarily to empower chain or group and large hotels in different aspects of their business. Moreover, riding high on the back of technology adoption that is expected to pick up next year, the company is also looking at two times growth in 2022.
Some of the supplemental features of the Hotel PMS are designed to help hotels with enterprise-grade operations. It includes new multi-property reports, CRO 1.0, central management of travel agent and corporate profiles, report scheduler, e-invoicing, and multi-currency support for invoicing. The company has also made necessary enhancements in its product to allow users to become compliant as per the norms laid out by regulatory and tourism departments of India, Thailand, UAE, Qatar, and Saudi Arabia, etc.
"Look at the rapidly changing market dynamics. Hotel operators and chain brands are expanding their portfolio by acquiring independent properties. That's why they need powerful and feature-rich cloud solutions for sustainable growth in the years to come. Our new capabilities are in line with what we have been stressing so far – a great hotel business starts with a powerful Hotel PMS," said Aditya Sanghi, Co-founder and CEO, Hotelogix.
In the last couple of years, Hotelogix has evolved to become a dependable multi-property management system that offers several crucial competencies, including centralised control over group property operation, advanced group-wide analytics, and centralised guest history. Earlier, in 2020, keeping guests’ safety in mind, it had introduced contactless capabilities allowing hotels to reduce physical touchpoints when serving guests – by enabling them to raise service requests, check-in, and checkout via their smartphones.
According to Aditya Sanghi, in 2021's hazy business environment, hotels scrambled for the right technology solution to stay attractive. They were also quick in realising that the Hotel PMS is not just for streamlining operations. Instead, it is an essential tool for their large and chain hotel brands to sell more rooms, manage revenues and online reputation, offer consistent guest services, and increase profitability. "This shift in their attitude is good for technology providers like us. We are closely monitoring the changing tech landscape to add new features to our product. The future looks good for all the stakeholders of the hospitality industry. We are confident of registering two times growth in 2022," Sanghi concluded.
