COVID Got Your IT Budget?
David Mulhall | April 22, 2021
Why a Migration to the Cloud Makes Sense in Times Like These. By David Mulhall There is extraordinarily little question that COVID has created a once in a lifetime business challenge for the hospitality industry. Nothing quite compares to the financial challenges that the virus has created. We have seen other significant events impact the industry but nothing quite like this. The attack on September 11, 2001, the real estate and banking crash of 2008, had meaningful impacts on the industry but the effects in many of our markets were fairly short lived. The reaction to these events by the industry were remarkably similar to the r...

Contactless Technology, Hospitality Services, and the Cloud
Infor | July 13, 2020
Cloud technology in the hospitality industry is changing the way that hotels, resorts, and gaming organizations serve guests. The deciding factor to success is in how simple it is for a guest to get what they want from a hotel via their own personal devices even before they arrive at a location. Essential mobile-based technology enables them to book a room, to set arrival times, to upgrade a room, add services, and more, all without necessarily having to make contact with staff. That call for contactless solutions delivered via cloud PMS is a priority for the industry right now. This is for convenience reasons. Yet it also has social impli...
