What is Central Reservation System Software Market?
The meaning or definition of a CRS or a centralized reservation system is a type of reservation software that is used to update and manage information about a hotel related to inventory and prices so that hotels can manage guest reservations and the process around such reservations in real-time. These reservations are managed through a variety of sales channels, such as through third-party booking websites, direct internet booking engines, the global distribution system (GDS), wholesalers, and more. A CRS centralizes the data from the property management systems (PMS), sales channels, call centers, and telephone reservation systems that are used in one or more properties. A CRS transmits the reservation data from the PMS / s to the sales channels in real-time so that hotels can reach guests through as many channels as necessary as part of their sales strategy. The platform enables the management of room assignments for groups and chains with one or more properties. This is particularly useful for managers who need a single source to manage strategies for multiple channels, multiple properties. Revenue managers can react quickly to market demand and adjust prices. Front office managers can create reservations and assign rooms from a single source of truth, while guests can access quotes for multiple properties from a single source of truth. Importantly, a CRS is critical to a diversified sales strategy to increase REVPAR and ensure operational efficiency in independent and chain hotels.
