Unified Communications for Hospitality
Create exceptional guest experiences
Discover a more efficient way to manage your voice services and deliver a superior guest experience. Unified Communications (UC) for Hospitality is built for the unique needs of hotels. It encompasses telephone management, automated wake-up calls, customized greetings and call accounting systems — all in a single, fully managed platform. The solution also includes an intuitive online portal that enables more effective use of your voice investment.
Flexible and secure integration with property management systems (PMS) takes these capabilities even further to improve revenue growth, personalize experiences and secure guest loyalty. PMS integration empowers your staff to use the systems they already know while simplifying the ways they serve guests.
Treat every guest like a VIP
Instant access to account and transaction history via a hospitality portal empowers your staff to anticipate guests’ preferences and delight them with the truly personal service that leads to strong brand loyalty. For example, the ability to deliver customized wake-up call greetings and voicemail prompts in a guest’s preferred language sets your property apart.
Empower your team
Combine comprehensive voice services with instant messaging, video conferencing, content sharing, meeting capabilities and a mobile app to simplify staff communication and increase collaboration. Improve team efficiency with real-time housekeeping statuses, minibar monitoring and phone call accounting that can be customized by guest type, along with other advanced features.
Gain peace of mind
Enhance your communication capabilities using a private, secure, proactively monitored fiber network with dedicated voice bandwidth that delivers exceptional call quality. UC for Hospitality is backed by a service-level agreement (SLA) that offers 99.99 percent availability, a four-hour mean time to restore service and 24/7/365 support. The solution also includes automated alerts for suspicious and fraudulent calls.
