What Our Client has to Say
“In essence, channel management is the large-scale process of coordinating multiple sales channels. These can be direct or indirect sales channels, through third-party entities such as distributors, retailers, or agents, who play a major role in marketing and selling products or services. We hope there are no misses between the channel manager (Rate Tiger) and the PMS hotel system (Insoft pms) regarding reservations during high season so that overbooking does not occur.”
