Channel manager? What is it and what is it used for?

In the travel industry, a channel manager is a software solution that directly connects your properties to the world’s leading rental portals.  Examples of such portals are booking.com, Expedia and TripAdvisor.  This is a tool used by hotels, B&B’s and vacation rental owners to advertised there listings all over the world. Updating prices, calendars and often other content directly through one software solution is the job of a channel manager.  It is intended to save you time, reduce mistakes and increase the number of bookings received. A channel manager is a great tool for property managers and individual vacation rental owners who have multiple rental units.  It removes the worry of over-bookings that can cost you money and make you company look unprofessional.

Finding the right software for your business may be tricky as there are many solutions on the market today.  Additional features are an important aspect of choosing the right software.  The internet is full of complicated and outdated solutions that don’t have their own features and will use partners to fill in the missing pieces.  These types of solutions usually lead to extra costs and complicated interfaces.  Examples of these are the creation of business websites, providing payment processing for guests and even channel mangers.
