How time-consuming is it to switch from my old hotel software to ASA?

Before changing the hotel software, our ASA experts work with your team to analyze the workflows in the business and which systems (e.g. cash register system, key systems, etc.) are already in use and should be connected. As a rule, existing data can simply be transferred so that, for example, no customer data is lost during the changeover. Our ASA experts prepare the software in advance so that the deployment in live operation runs optimally. How Hotel NIDUM in Seefeld experienced the system change can be read here. For all existing ASA customers who are interested in the new web-enabled interface of ASA: The upgrade can be activated by the ASA partner with just a few clicks and without interrupting operations. More information about the ASA upgrade can be found here: UPGRADE

What is hotel software?

"Hotel software is an industry-specific program that maps the business processes of an accommodation business and whose individual program functions provide comprehensive support for a hotel's employees. Hotel software should include front-office, mid-office, and back-office functions, as well as functions that support hotel operations and hotel management in making strategic decisions." Jerzy Jaworski in "Industry Software for the Hotel Industry in the D-A-CH Region" from 2015.

ASA HOTEL thus clearly falls into the category of hotel software and provides support not only in the front, mid and back office, but also in many other areas. With numerous innovative features, flexible modules and an extensive marketplace, ASA HOTEL simplifies hotel workflows.
