HOW CLOUD-BASED HOTEL SOFTWARE IS CHANGING THE HOSPITALITY INDUSTRY



Through the rise of cloud-based hotel software solutions, the hospitality business has experienced a change in the most recent decade. With cloud-based property management software only gaining in popularity, the manner in which hoteliers work together has been changed forever.

Transitioning to a cloud-based hotel software solution can seem like a daunting task at first, which may be the reason why some property owners in the hotel industry have been slow to adopt this new technology.

But hoteliers are increasingly looking for better service and more integrated technology options, and factors like these are just some of the benefits that cloud-based software can provide.

Couple that with the fact that in the next two to three years hoteliers are expected to invest seven to eight percent more on cloud technology and it’s easy to see that the future will lead to the majority of hoteliers adopting new technology with the remaining percentage lagging behind.

Cloud-based hotel software can and will change the hospitality industry with revolutionary features that can provide updated data in real time.

Additionally, increased accessibility, greater profitability, and user-friendly dashboards make cloud-based software enticing for hoteliers.


How has a cloud-based hotel software impacted the hospitality industry?

For starters, cloud-based hotel software has the ability to host a property management system (PMS) from a remote location, allowing hoteliers to access their property data from anywhere in the world with an internet connection.

This the feature is unique to cloud-based software and eliminates the need for hoteliers to be physically present at their property to be able to check in on daily management operations.

Unlike locally installed hospitality software, cloud-based systems are hosted by a vendor’s server and give hoteliers a single, scalable system that’s flexible and easily updated. These are just a few of the reasons the hospitality industry is approaching a turning point in terms of cloud technology adoption.

Furthermore, cloud-based hotel software allows property owners and managers to:

  •   Eliminate the need for manual data sharing and processing
  •  Give staff more mobility and accessibility around the property (i.e. staff can view and update housekeeping status in real time)
  • Take advantage of frequent software updates and enhancements instead of waiting to download and install new versions of their software
  •  Accelerate hotel check-in / out
  • Easily integrate their PMS software with third-party tools and services
