Avaya IX solutions for hospitality enable leading global hoteliers to
deliver unique, digital, personalized guest service options
MINNEAPOLIS–(BUSINESS WIRE)–HITEC 2019 – Leading hospitality providers are
implementing new and innovative ways to enhance guest and staff
experiences with the help of unified communications and contact center
solutions from Avaya Holdings Corp. (NYSE: AVYA), a global leader in
solutions to enhance and simplify communications and collaboration for
the global hospitality industry.
According to IDG, 62 percent of businesses believe digital
transformation success is defined by excellent customer experience as
measured by customer satisfaction scores.1 Organizations
pursuing digital transformation face the challenge of revamping their
infrastructure to better meet customer needs, while reducing costs and
increasing efficiency. This is even more critical in the world of
hospitality, where guest satisfaction is paramount, highly personal, and
highly visible.
“As a significant and growing global hospitality brand known for
superior guest experiences across our 5,000 resorts and hotels
worldwide, Accor chooses our vendors carefully,” said Denis Collette,
global call centre IT manager, Accor. “We have been an Avaya customer
over the last 20 years and we look to Avaya for our continued growth in
enhancing our guest journey. The Avaya IX™ Contact Center solution is
rock solid with a history of proven reliability and support.”
Moxy Hotels, Marriott’s newest brand, focuses on providing fresh and
innovative experiences to guests by combining stylish design and
approachable service at an affordable price point. “To ensure we are
giving our guests the finest experience we knew we needed a reliable,
rich-feature solution that came in a competitive price point,” said
Lowell Beebe-Center, director of operations, Moxy Hotels. “To date,
partners Avaya and TAUTO have been extremely responsive and easy to work
with, helping us to realize our business needs through features and
solutions enabled on our Avaya IX Workplace™ platform. The open API
scope and expanded integration with a plethora of hospitality vendors
has helped allow for us to have a solution that we can expand and
enhance as we add to our guest experiences in the future.”
“Connectivity today is a critical aspect of the hospitality industry. It
is essential to have proper infrastructure to provide the reliable
services our guests need,” said Joseph Fayad, corporate director IT,
TIME Hotels, a chain of four resort brands based in the UAE. “IT’s role
is to make the business run more efficiently. An efficient communication
system takes this role further by making the business dynamic enough to
adapt to future technology evolution. Our new Avaya contact center and
unified communications platform helps make it possible for the group to
automate key guest services including wake-up calls, reservation
reminders, and requests for information on hotel services and local
attractions all while helping reduce our CapEx and OpEx by up to 30
percent.”
