On 10th October, Availpro unveiled a sneak preview of its new rate optimisation product on its Facebook page. Availpro RateScreener is a brand new solution that adds to the range of functionalities that the developer already offers its hotel users. With RateScreener, Availpro is the only solution that allows hotel owners to monitor their competitors’ rates from within their own central distribution schedule (which manages the Channel Manager and Availpro booking engines).
RateScreener will be officially launched at a conference for Hotel Owners and the press on 25th October at the Crowne Plaza Saint James in London. Those who wish to attend may register by clicking here (limited places available).
RateScreener is primarily designed to help hotel owners identify opportunities to increase their rates, by analysing the competition. This new tool offers a range of information, including rates applied by selected competitor hotels, details of rates advertised on different portals and GDSs, and rate parity monitoring capabilities. RateScreener is fully integrated into the Availpro management extranet and the hotel schedule, allowing hotel owners to make quick and easy adjustments.
RateScreener is the first competitive intelligence tool that allows hotel owners to view their rates, inventory and competitors’ rates on the same screen. The cleverly-designed graphical user interface gives users a quick and effective overview of all the data they need to make an informed decision about whether to raise or lower their rates. Because the tool is fully integrated into the Availpro schedule, hotel owners can easily make adjustments and achieve the best rate quickly and simply.
