SPONSORED: How about simplifying PMS evaluation?

Cloud computing has led to the rise of software, infrastructure and platform-based services, enhancing accessibility to technology. This is enabling independent hotels to adopt digital tools for managing their operations as effectively as the larger chains.

Hoteliers are awakening to the enormous potential these services offer to improve revenue, and PMSs are beginning to earn a reputation as a fundamental necessity for strategic business.

However, this has given rise to a new challenge – the sheer multitude of PMS vendors is inhibiting owners from making a good choice.

Prabhash Bhatnagar, founder of cloud-based PMS Hotelogix.com insists that the heart of the problem lies in PMS evaluation. With so many restrictions and interactions required just to try out the demo version of today’s PMSs, hoteliers are unable to find the appropriate system.

By providing an unrestricted trial experience and automating the setup, Prabhash unveiled what could well be the first PMS in the world enabling small hotel owners to take their property to the cloud in a minute.

“Technology often works well when it makes a complex task simple,” he explains. “The independent, self-enabling nature of Hotelogix Cloud PMS is a step in the direction of removing all barriers from what a user may choose, decide and achieve when evaluating a PMS.”

Hotelogix achieves this by using a new automated setup configuration wizard – owners can quickly look up their hotel from a dropdown menu that appears as they enter their property’s name.

After selecting their establishment, the system employs complex algorithms that scout for information about the property before automatically filling in details like the number of rooms, room types, amenities and more. This allows owners to start evaluating the PMS immediately. There is no doubt that simplified evaluation is the obvious precedent to making an informed buying decision.
