I like that it is thought to be easy to use. The reservation process through NGVA is quick and intuitive. I like that you can now add reservations and it transfers the names and CC info from the original reservation to the next. SynXis CR is easy to use, and it helps a lot when loading information.

Expert Q&A and Partner Recommendations

Submit Recommendation
Question:

What does this product or service do well?

Answer:

Knowledgeable support team. Ease of CRS set up and navigation. Ability to connect with various external partners. I like the fact that there are new partnerships and system enhancements, it is preferred to work with a partner under one umbrella.

Question:

What differentiates this product or service from the competition?

Answer:

Speed to market (yet recently there are delays, not sure if staffing is an issue). Ease of use. In general Sabre/Synxis is a solid partner, the support team, market managers are always very attentive.

Question:

Based on your experience with this product or service, if you could give one piece of advice to a hotelier considering this product or service, what would it be?

Answer:

Ease of set up, use and general functionality. One-stop shop with several products and services under one umbrella, hence when there is a need to call out for support, the support team, in general is very knowledgeable. I am however concerned with the future CRS business model and minimum revenue for contracting with Sabre. Many independent / smaller properties will have a hard time reaching a specific revenue target and with that will not be considered for Sabre/CRS.
