Business Challenges
1. Complex Multi-Role Administration
Travel agencies have to administer administrators, agents, and clients with various access levels and different needs. It is important to provide each of the users with proper information and functionality while keeping things secure.
2. Real-Time Travel Data Synchronization
Clients and agents need to have fresh information concerning flights, hotels, cars, prices, and availability. Lack of real-time travel data may result in clients receiving old information during the booking process.
3. Manual Booking and Client Administration
Manual management of customers, travel offers, inquiries, and reservations may increase the burden on administration and complicate the process of monitoring customer activities for the agents.
4. Safe Online Payments
It was important to enable the platform to support online card payments while securing payment information and avoiding storing card data within the system.
5. Travel Agency Analytics
Travel agencies need to be able to see bookings and performance of their teams. The lack of analytics may cause problems with monitoring sales and team activities for administrators.
