Example of a Custom Hotel Reservation System

One such customized hotel reservation system has been employed in a hotel of Australia.

This hotel staff was previously performing manual bookings. Due to this, the entire process of bookings, cancellation, managing check-in and checkout time was rendered time-consuming. This affected the overall productivity and resulted in huge loss. Moreover, when they required updating the information related to their rooms, rates and occupancies on third-party booking sites like Wotif, NeedItNow, RatesToGo, etc. it was quite tedious.
