Execuvue and Profitvue improve decision making

Execuvue is an Internet-enabled hospitality business intelligence application for large and small hotel companies that coordinates data from a wide variety of corporate systems (including Smith Travel Research) into accessible information via executive dashboards and graphics with familiar Windows simplicity.  Execuvue gives hotel executives the power to make better business decisions daily by providing real-time access to key operating information and displaying it in a user-friendly graphic format.  

Profitvue is a thin-client, Web-enabled hospitality back office solution that easily handles single, multi-property, or multi-company accounting and may be installed at one hotel or deployed as a hosted ASP service.  It incorporates accounts payable, general ledger and financials and gives users open database compliance (ODBC) within a scaleable, client/server, open systems architecture.  Multi-property consolidations are accomplished automatically according to operator criteria, and Profitvue allows new properties to be added quickly and easily.  Webvue is the Internet module of Profitvue that enables automated remote data entry and report generation quickly and easily through a company�s Internet or Intranet site without adding accounting staff.
