request background
On the lookout for a hotel-industry software development provider to enhance the integration capabilities of the existing tech solution for hotel owners
The client set an ambitious goal to make the best hotel management software more accessible to modern hoteliers. To improve their solution, the tech product provider was looking for a company specializing in custom software development for the travel industry. The product had severe integration issues, preventing the client from scaling their offering.
The request to Acropolium as a provider of travel software development services included the following:
1. Integration of hotel software systems, often referred to as property management systems (PMS), into the client’s platform.
2. Implementing integration features for hotel reservation software platforms.
3. Incorporation of a B2B module to accompany the connected hotel networks and online booking systems.

challenge
Building a hotel management system software development strategy to address data transit challenges
The client required a strategy for developing a hotel management software system. To streamline and digitize the primary tasks, the platform needed advanced data processing features.
During the hotel software solution development, one of our challenges was to ensure seamless and secure processing of large data volumes. At the same time, the client’s hotel management solution had to integrate with booking platforms and internal hotel software systems, displaying data in real-time.
goals
- Ensure integration of the client’s existing hotel software systems with additional communication channels.
- Connect the client’s system with the chosen booking platforms with automatic reservation data entry.
- Develop a cloud-based PMS with two-way real-time data exchange (for platform users without internal hotel software solutions).
- Make the client’s e-commerce software platform accessible in different countries.
