Press release – 31 July 2008 – Rate Tiger–EasyRMS

Rate Tiger has integrated with leading hotel revenue management system provider, EasyRMS, to help hoteliers streamline their channel management of online distribution sites.

Hotels using both systems will now be able to maximise online revenue through third party channels by having an automated process from rate calculation to rate distribution to travel websites. The integration allows the room rates calculated by EzRMS to be distributed across the web via the Rate Tiger product suites. This saves hotels having to enter data manually for each individual channel.

Rate Tiger’s integration with EzRMS will improve efficiency for hoteliers who need to allocate their room rates and inventory to online distribution channels. Further eliminating human error and making updates quicker and easier. The EzRMS system will work in real-time through Rate Tiger’s leading channel management software across multiple online distribution channels. 

In order to make this ground breaking technology work a dedicated interface has been developed to handle the way room rates are allocated to the various market segments necessary for each hotel. This provides an even more holistic approach to revenue management.

“The ability to update quickly, efficiently and transparently to numerous internet channels is an essential solution to maximise investments in technology made by hoteliers,” says Clive Taylor, vice president of operations at EasyRMS.

“The solution assists hoteliers in any part of the world to ensure they have the right prices available to clients. We are very pleased to have developed and tested with Rate Tiger an interface that will ensure the conversion of EzRMS recommendations to online channels that our clients are mutually working with.”

“We recently established a dedicated Integration Team to develop close relationships with the industry’s leading revenue management solutions,” said Sascha Hausmann, chief operatating officer of Rate Tiger.

“We take rates from the revenue management system and post them directly to sales channels. Removing time spent on manual update processes and the associated complexities of channel management allows revenue managers to sign up to many more channels because of the automated interface. We aim to help hoteliers make the most of their investments and maximise revenue from online distribution channels cutting costs and making systems more efficient and responsive to revenue strategy.”

The first hotelier to utilise the converged Rate Tiger and EzRMS interface is the NH Schiller Hotel, Amsterdam.

EzRMS is a further RMS to be successfully integrated into Rate Tiger’s portfolio providing the flexibility required for updating online channels.
