Choosing the Right Software for Your Resort Business

Hinweis der Redaktion

  1. OK here is where it may sound a little technical because I am going to talk about choosing an infrastructure Traditional Infrastructure I am sure we all understand You have an IT department You buy servers to host your software and these require licenses It may require a cooling system to keep them optimized It does require capital outlay Usually the person who knows how all of this works is a single, expensive knowledgebase Software loaded on the server will require upgrades, fixes and may have downtime Usually purchased software loaded onto your infrastucture comes with long term contracts
  2. New Infrastructure uses Cloud computing and delivers software through you internet browser SaaS – simply means software as a service and there are many leading technology companies that have adopted the Cloud By definition There are no servers or licenses No It resource No capital outlay and the software is usually by monthly subscription offering a true turn key solution If you have the internet and a way of accessing the internet then you’re in business Using real time data, with as many users as you have, from any location at any time Your always using the latest version of the software served to you And the remote data centres storing the data spend millions dedicated to security much more than any single site vacation business could ever spend
  3. Interesting facts from Forrester to help you
