Not only does the platform align with our current data architecture, it also offers a wide range of new integrations. This includes the IDeaS AI-based revenue planning system, which will introduce a new era of revenue management for the brands we represent. The partnership also delivers the latest call center technology, empowering teams with advanced tools for greater guest support."

Aaron Shepherd, Vice President and Head of Innovation, IBS Software, said: "To meet guests where they are and remain competitive in today's market, hotel and travel businesses must be willing to adopt and integrate modern solutions designed to align with their everyday needs.
