DirectWithHotels partners with RMS to deliver an innovative reservation management package that helps expand market reach

May 20th, 2008

Manila, Philippines – Building on its commitment to making life easier for accommodation providers, DirectWithHotels has forged a partnership with RMS, one of Australia’s foremost reservations management solutions provider. The partnership integrates DirectWithHotels’ reservations system with RMS’ OnlineClient system, resulting in the management of room availability, room rates and reservation information using a single interface.

This integration provides hoteliers with a seamless approach to managing and receiving reservations. The minute a reservation is made on a hotel’s website through the DirectWithHotels Guest Interface, the reservation details are automatically reflected on the hotel’s OnlineClient system.

“We are enthusiastic about the benefits this partnership will bring to our hotel partners,” said Emiliano Zulberti, president and chief executive officer of DirectWithHotels. “Combining our technology with that of RMS’ streamlines the process of updating room availability on the hotel’s website and on the entire reservation platform, since there is real time communication between our two systems. Thus, our clients are assured of eliminating the possibility of any double bookings and cumbersome manual re-entry procedures.”

In addition, this integration not only provides hoteliers with an efficient way of managing reservations but also ultimately allows them to expand their market reach to more guests in the world through DirectWithHotels’ ATTRACT > CONVERT > MANAGE Service Suite. For no upfront costs, a dedicated team helps hoteliers to get more visitors to their own website, capture more bookers and achieve more online performance.

Taking it a step further, this integration enhancement will also allow existing Siteminder clients to manage not only reservation information on the hotel’s website and front office system, but also allows hotels to sell across all their distribution channels through the easy-to-use Siteminder interface.

“DirectWithHotels is committed to continuously provide value to our hotel partners. As more and more reservations are now coming online, we expect our partnership to provide our hotel partners the competitive edge needed to address today’s demanding market,” Zulberti added.
