Guestline expands its RMS integrations to help hoteliers maximise yields and work smarter

Independent hotels and small groups will benefit from a seamless, real-time RMS integration with Guestline PMS to automate repetitive and time-consuming tasks, distribute rates and restrictions between the RMS and PMS - in addition to a range of pricing, analytics and segmentation tools at their fingertips to help maximise booking revenues.

‘Today’s revenue manager has outgrown spreadsheets and understands the need for more precision and predictability to build a sustainable revenue culture amidst shifting market dynamics. These RMS integrations will enable hoteliers to make strategic revenue decisions whilst keeping up with multiple price elements, pace and dynamics. The automated processes, and optimal pricing and inventory decisions that are delivered will also enable the hoteliers to save time and stay in control’ said Mark Ashley-Palmer, Guestline Principal Product Manager.

Tim Penter, Director of ApartRevPlus added, ‘The hotel sales environment is competitive and fast moving and those hotels that don’t have the tools to react are often at a disadvantage in the marketplace. Our cost effective yet feature rich tool (now seamlessly integrated with the leading PMS provider in our sector) supports hotels with their revenue management processes and enables them to keep on top of demand and competitor trends.’

Liz Daly​, Business Development Manager at Rate Wise commented, ‘We’re delighted to have this secure connection with Guestline – the Rate Wise RMS is about creating a more efficient way for Revenue and Reservations Managers to review and publish their rates as well as amending their rate strategies without having to pore over reports for hours. Now more than ever when the teams within properties are stretched thin, this partnership can transform a process that used to take hours into one that takes mere minutes.’

The API interface between Rate Wise and Guestline PMS enables revenue managers to grow their revenue. The Rate Wise RMS gives rate suggestions based on the hotels performance and the market place, which hoteliers can review and manipulate and send them across to Guestline Rezlynx PMS. Rezlynx PMS sends the new rates in real-time to the Guestline Channel Manager, so they are distributed across different channels.

This connection between Rate Wise and Guestline will help properties to streamline their rate strategy, reducing the amount of time Reservations and Front Office teams spend reviewing pick up and adjusting the pricing on their PMS and Channel Manager. The Rate Wise RMS includes a business analysis tool, pickup analysis tool and competitor shopping report. By making this information easily accessible within the system, budgeting and forecasting processes become much more efficient and cut down on the amount time needed by the team to gather this data.

The 2-way HTNG connection with ApartRevPlus integrates with Guestline and a rate shopper to monitor the marketplace and provide suggested pricing based upon the market and the hoteliers view of their position in the market.  Hoteliers can then choose to accept the recommendations or change them, either way, the rates are seamlessly pushed to Guestline Channel Manager and out to the multiple channels that hotels work with. There is also the option to allow the system to automate the rate acceptance or work with a hybrid of both processes.

Hoteliers can adapt the system to their needs and requirements, have the flexibility to customise their dashboards, set up a rate strategy and automate the rate and restriction recommendations at their own pace. ApartRevPlus not only provide hoteliers with a state of the art and cloud-based RMS but also assist hoteliers with hands-on support and tactical advice to ensure hoteliers are optimising the system and delivering as much revenue as possible.

The 2-way HTNG interface between Guestline Relzynx PMS and Duetto GameChanger enables hoteliers to focus on their revenue strategy and RevPAR. With Duetto GameChanger, hotels will be able to save time, stay in control and process relevant data in real-time from multiple sources; request on-demand or automatic rate and restrictions suggestions, and build custom reports to get trends and insights they need to understand the recommendations, adjust, and distribute them across channels in no time.

The Open Pricing methodology enables hoteliers to yield all segments (not just BAR rate), room types and distribution channels independently and in real-time, resulting in increased RevPAR (up to 4.4% on average).

The two-way HTNG interface between Guestline Rezlynx PMS and IDeaS RMS and G3 RMS enables hoteliers to streamline optimal pricing decisions with valuable data, accurate forecasting and proven analytics.

IDeaS’ revenue science solutions forecast occupancy and revenue accurately and analytically determine rates, restrictions and overbookings by room type based on valuable data captured from the PMS, rate shoppers, reputation tools and market demand. Hoteliers can be confident the decisions they make will maximise RevPAR. The integration gathers the most valuable data from different channels in real-time, forecasts the total unconstrained demand, constantly optimises rates, restrictions and overbookings, and can automatically share your decisions with the PMS so they are distributed across channels in the fastest way possible.
