Indian hoteliers sign up for RateTiger solutions

Since setting up the sales infrastructure in India eRevMax has added a substantial number of hotels to its list of Indian clientele. Besides the impressive list of larger Indian hotel chains, the hotel revenue and distribution management software RateTiger is now also used at properties like Hotel Hindusthan International (Kolkata), Sahara Star, Sun & Sand (Mumbai), Bristol (Gurgaon), Ista (Bangalore), The Lalit (Delhi & Bangalore), Fortune Select (Navi Mumbai) and Zuri Hotels.

“As soon as we started using RTSuite Shopper we were able to generate intelligent competitive rate comparison reports between our hotel and our direct competitors across all hotel websites as well as our third party travel websites,” said Darshana Sheth, Revenue Manager, Sun & Sand, Mumbai. “These reports give us a bird’s eye view of how our competitors are placed on different websites and allow us to make quick rate decisions whenever required. Being able to compare prices by room-types and not just lowest price makes it a real apple to apple comparison.”

Hoteliers now need to focus on managing rates and availability on many travel websites as more consumers decide to buy online. In times where markets are turbulent, consumers frequently check for the best offer online, demanding hotels to continuously manage prices and availabilities. Hoteliers therefore need to turn to technology to remove elaborate and laborious processes involved in updating and implementing positioning strategies. This helps to set up quick and efficient channel management processes ensuring hoteliers can spend more time catering their guests, while not having to worry about online bookings coming in.

Rakesh Singh, Revenue Manager, The Zuri Hotels and Resorts stated, “With the steady increase in online business, it has become important for us to strategically manage our online presence. However, managing rates and inventory on various websites is time intensive and prone to human error. With RateTiger, rate updates is just a matter of minutes. We are saving valuable time using RTAllocator Pro - a simple product that works in real-time with the most comprehensive set of functions in the industry. We have seen our investment in RateTiger products receive a ROI in no time at all.’
