We are continuing our 6 part series on How to Choose a New PMS.
Over the course of the 6 episodes we explore the following:
- What is the role of the PMS, why it is so important and what are the signs you might need to consider an update.
- Evaluating your needs – what you should consider about your hotel needs before embarking on a new solution.
- What features should you consider in a new PMS.
- Selecting a provider.
- Productivity and Efficiency Gains – what do you actually want the PMS to do.
- Implementation – what are some of the key points to consider as you embark on implementing your new system.
