40,000 Anticipated Visitors to IH/M&RS, NYC Nov 13-15 Hotels
including Centralized PMS from Ramesys Hospitality
NOVEMBER 9, 2005. Hotel management and owners have the chance to sample some of the best quality that suppliers have to offer at the upcoming International Hotel/Motel and Restaurant Show in New York November 13-15. Technology features among the five sectors served - the others being Decor, Restaurant, Flavors and Essentials - and consultants from Ramesys will be on hand to discuss its revolutionary centralized PMS, Entirety.
Entirety gives hotel owners and chain operators an inexpensive way to link operational systems at each front desk to one central server via a secure connection over the internet. Ramesys has been pioneering "ASP", or hosted solutions, since 1998 when it installed an integrated PMS/CRS at hotel group Travel Inn. The chain, part of the UK's giant Whitbread organization, has grown from their then 200 hotels to over 500. It operates each on a single server with unified access from its central reservations service, website and front desk. This enables an unrivalled capability to cross sell between properties and room types, reportedly generating over $2m additional revenue per month and providing a huge return on investment.
Independent properties and smaller hotel chains can benefit from this technology that, up until a few years ago, was the realm of only the largest international chains. Explains Andrew Sanders, Ramesys' director of sales and marketing, "Entirety allows a hotel or chain of any size or type to implement a modern, but tried and true system without a big investment in local server. We help hotels look after their guests by removing the headaches often associated with IT like managing a local server, clean power supplies and resilience, backups etc."
