Micros Systems, Inc. Release date: March 3, 2008
NEUSS, Germany, March 3/ - Connection Allows Hotels to Manage Rates, Availability, Inventory and Reservations Directly From Their MICROS Property Management System
MICROS Systems, Inc. (NASDAQ: MCRS), a leading provider of information technology solutions for the hospitality and retail industries, is pleased to announce the development of a powerful new XML-based direct connection between Booking.com, Europe's leading online hotel reservations company, and myfidelio.net, MICROS's distribution services powered by the OPERA Reservation System.
This unique and innovative solution will enable the hotel to manage all rates, inventory and availability from its MICROS Property Management System and to receive reservations directly into its reservation system, utilizing myfidelio.net.
"myfidelio.net is Micros' state-of-the-art distribution services solution and it is fully integrated with all Micros's Property Management Systems. The direct XML connection with Booking.com will empower hotels with the ability to manage the rates and inventory from a single point and to receive reservations directly into the hotel system, eliminating the need to maintain extranets", said Andrea Carrillo Bianchi, Director Business Development for Distribution Logistics at Micros. "We are very pleased with the cooperation with Booking.com and confident that both of our companies will be offering an excellent value to the hotel industry", she continued.
"The interface has been developed in close co-operation with Micros Fidelio. We are very glad that we can add Micros Fidelio to our list of hotel-interface partners", said Martin Lamme, Project Manager Hotels Department at Booking.com. "This is for sure a great advantage for hotels using the Micros Fidelio products as their front office system, as hotels will stay longer bookable on the Booking.com websites without having to deal with the (last minute) availability and rate changes through an extranet. It will save hotels a lot of time on operational level and it becomes easier to offer rate parity".
Myfidelio.net is the "Software as a Service" model of the OPERA Reservation System, an enterprise solution for the hospitality industry, providing central reservation management services and connections to worldwide distribution channels, the GDS and the hotel corporate website.
Myfidelio.net offers full integration with all hotel solutions offered by MICROS, including OPERA PMS, Fidelio Suite 8 in Europe, Fidelio Version 6, and Fidelio Version 7.
