There are a lot of methods that assist hoteliers with distributing available rooms to their guests. The number of booking channels or distribution partners available for hotels, guest houeses or bed & breakfasts is constantly growing. This is resulting in a confusing amount of data (guest data, reservations, invoices) to be processed – a lot of work, making a professional channel management inevitable. The now existing interface to cultuzz helps bookatonce users to save time by managing their distribution channels efficiently and automatically.

The number of channels is amazing and includes the own property website and several booking platforms offered by tourist boards that the hotelier belongs to – almost all of them providing another system. Examples are tiscover, feratel, tomas or wild east… Hotel booking platforms even increase the variety, major players are hrs, booking.com, hotels.com etc. Last but by no means least there is the connectivity to the big  Global Distributions Systems (GDS) such as Amadeus, Galileo, Sabre and Worldspan… For bigger hotels or chains it is quite easy to handle such an amount of different distribution channels by setting up necessary interfaces and acquiring – though expensive – software. But what about smaller properties such as bed and breakfasts or private vacation rentals?

Without applying an appropriate software the bunch of information is no longer manageable. They would have to manually post and update rates and availabilities simultaneously and would have to feed a lot of channels in order to be competitive and to avoid overbookings. All these efforts are indispensable (but time consuming) in order to achieve the superordinate target of guest satisfaction. The solution out of this dilemma is bookatonce.

The certified interface between bookatonce and cultuzz’ channel management solutions now offers the hotelier the option to connect his property management system directly to the growing diversity of online distribution channels via just one interface. This saves time, increases the facility of inspection and helps to avoid overbookings.
