RoomKeyPMS

Kommentare: Along with the ease of use, the customer support of the friendly staff was a bonus!

Vorteile: This was an easy transition from franchise mandated software to an independent hotel PMS. Our staff was able to learn in literally days. All the necessary reports and management tools were available as well.

Nachteile: There were a few functions that I felt could of been more easily accessed, but overall the things I liked about the program outweighed the cons.

Vorteile: The program along with interfaces are extremely easy to deploy and very, very user friendly! Their entire team are experienced hoteliers with warm, genuine and caring personalities. They take a personal approach in everything they do. They are continuously seeking ways to improve the product by reaching out to end users for feedback and beta testing. They also strive to ensure exceptional client services at every single touch point and beyond!

Nachteile: The only thing I would say I find challenging; when we first began with the program a little over 10 years ago I had become very used to having one main "go to" person I worked with as an ideas and support person. This allowed for a great working relationship and a clear understanding of needs and wishes. Now there is a team and I don't know all of them as well and sometimes communication isn't as clear as I would prefer - this would be from both my side and theirs.

Kommentare: Streamlined daily operations, ease of training new employees, allows us to successfully serve our guests very intuitively.

Vorteile: Cloud-based, very user-friendly and easy to train, readily available training materials, accessible and attentive client resources, very responsive customer service, easy to manage and build any needed reports within the platform, allows us to integrate with all relevant industry software, provides ease and convenience to our daily duties, and constantly improving and anticipating the changing needs of our industry.

Nachteile: There is nothing to report, any potential issue was solved quickly or worked around easily. They welcome suggestions for improvement, and I readily provide them.

Kommentare: Pros --There has been a lot of very nice features that have helped us serve our Guests better.
- The quick access to information on the home screen.
- Quick Check-in and Check-out processes
- Intuitive nature of the software (anticipates what the clerk needs to do next)
- Credit Card Processing has been extremely easy and user friendly. Shift4 Interface is great
- Functionality of the Rate Wizard has been tremendous. This has allowed our properties
to do more Revenue Management and Promotional Rates.
- The updates that happen so frequently are very nice. It feels like things are always being
looked at and worked on.
- RoomKey Insight page is very nice for getting certain reports/information.
- Advanced search is excellent
- Website Interface and online booking is good.
Cons --
- Reports seem somewhat sporadic. Arrivals and Departures reports do not have totals
there are a lot of good reports, but I believe the reporting could be better.
- No inventory for Guest Services (cots, cribs, etc.)
- Overbooking seems to be an issue that comes up a lot even if you are just going into a
reservation to make a change you always have to enable overbook if the hotel is filled.
- Overall the booking box and the rate box that needs to be checked can sometimes get
cumbersome for clerks especially when needing to scroll to look or change a rate in the
reservation.
- Packages are not very user friendly. There are lots of additional items and things to discuss concerning the software. The above items obviously don't cover everything. Overall our organization is very pleased with the system and has been impressed with the customer service thus far.

Kommentare: Overall recommendation, looking into RSI would be a benefit to any hotel looking to maximize their revenue, save time, use state of art technology for GDS, key cards, credit card processing, etc. It's truly a magnificent system and the favorite aspect of our front desk

Vorteile: As a General Manager of 20 years in the hospitality industry I can confidently say our hotels performance is directly linked to Room Key. The technology is affordable; the staff at RSI is extremely cutting edge. Within the first six months of using RSI our occupancy went up 10%. Our staff honestly loves the system, front desk can be trained to take reservations and oversee check-ins within a few hours. The accessibility of having an online system allows us to work from anywhere at anytime. RSI allows us the maximize presence with the GDS by offering a two-way interface that is so easy to use and gives maximum control. We are a mid size property of 70 rooms that operates a year round occupancy of 93-95% with an average stay of less than 3 days. We operate extremely efficiently because of RSI. We feel passionate about PMS provider and the team that supports us.

Nachteile: Well, in regards to the cons of the software, I guess there are a couple of things that I would like to see in future upgrades. We'd like to see the tape chart show a few additional days and we would like to enhance the logo imaging on the confirmations that we email out along with the fonts and overall design. We'd also like to add a function that drops held reservations with out guarantees after a preset time.
