Phoenix, AZ � September 23, 2009 � MSI (Multi-Systems, Inc.), a hospitality
technology solutions provider announces the release of WinPM version 2.2
which includes exciting new software functionality, specifically for Best
Western members.
During the 2008 Best Western convention in Hawaii, we asked Best Western
members how they would enhance the WinPM solution. Best Western owners
and general managers shared suggestions like the ability to stop charge
routing from printing, having more control locally, greater package functionality,
and Best Western Reward loyalty enrollment.
This year MSI has worked diligently to deliver. WinPM 2.2 for
Best Western now includes the following:
-
Enhanced package flexibility
-
Enhanced locally enforced restrictions
-
Enhanced DOW (Day of Week) rates
-
Enhanced accounting functionality
-
Blacklist �Do Not Rent� functionality
-
Room revenue category reporting
-
Enhanced Reports
-
Best Western Rewards look up and enrollment
-
Qualified rate designations and commissionable rate codes
In addition, MSI is rolling out mobile technology for WinPM users, via
iPhone / iTouch, as part of our nTouch suite for WinPM launched at HITEC.
MSI�s mobile technology now puts real-time, critical operating data in
your hands with nTouch for WinPM. nTouch lets you check availability,
look up a VIP guest, manage room status while seeing how you are doing
with RevPar, ADR and Occupancy goals to budget, right from your iPhone
or iTouch mobile device.
�MSI is committed to the success of our clients. Providing an
agile development culture focused on producing software which allows our
clients to differentiate themselves from their competition is central to
MSI�s mission of empowering the lodging industry. Reaching the 2.2 milestone
for our Best Western owners, operators and managers, makes me incredibly
proud of the MSI team� shared Tim Tiller, MSW, President of MSI.
The MSI team will be showcasing both, WinPM enhancements and the nTouch
intergration at this year�s Best Western Convention in Phoenix, Arizona,
October 22nd-24th. Visit MSI at Booth #512 and attend the WinPM User
Group meeting as part of the convention on Friday, October 23rd.
