  • “Oracle Hospitality’s strategy around OPERA Cloud property management system puts the company in a strong position for the next phase of connected hospitality systems”

    Austin, Texas—December 7, 2022
    Download the IDC MarketScape Worldwide Hospitality PMS 2022 Vendor Assessment Report

    Oracle has been positioned as a ‘Leader’ in the inaugural IDC MarketScape Worldwide Hospitality Property Management Systems (PMS) 2022 Vendor Assessment1. The report notes that Oracle Hospitality OPERA Cloud PMS “sets the bar as an example with all modules within the platform sharing a common data set and end-user experience and are secure, scalable, and globally available.”

    Where hoteliers have previously been hindered by siloed-systems, OPERA Cloud provides a simple and intuitive user experience and unified solutions on a single cloud-native platform with modular, connected components that “support all the various and vital areas of hotel operations, sales and marketing, distribution, and financials—with a single view of the guest.” The report adds that, “Oracle’s strategy around the company’s property management system puts the company in a strong position for the next phase of connected hospitality systems.”

    “As property needs become more complex, the right PMS is key to ensuring hotel managers and frontline staff have the tools needed to operate more efficiently without detriment to guest service,” said Dorothy Creamer, research manager, hospitality & travel digital transformation strategies for IDC. “Oracle Hospitality’s OPERA Cloud PMS is architected to address the pressing issues hoteliers face on a daily basis while helping to navigate fresh challenges and introduce new business models without technology friction to consistently deliver an elevated guest experience.”

     

    Setting the bar

    The IDC MarketScape assessment evaluated current capabilities and strategies of property management system technology vendors, their ability to meet customer needs, and how well their future strategy, with an emphasis on innovation, aligns with what customers will require in three to five years.

    The report notes that OPERA Cloud is being utilized for hotels of all sizes from single-location to multi-property enterprises and features a “UX/UI that can be customized based on any hotel employee's needs.” This includes giving properties flexibility with multiple levels of customization at the chain, brand, property, role, and even user level to allow process to drive the technology rather than the technology driving the process.

    “Being recognized as a Leader in the IDC MarketScape Hospitality PMS report, and positioned above all other vendors on our dimension capabilities and strategy, reaffirms our investment in and continued dedication to the global hospitality market,” said Alex Alt, senior vice president and general manager, Oracle Hospitality. “The PMS has always played a key role as the heart of a hotels’ operations and has only grown in importance as guests return to travel with different expectations. Oracle Hospitality is committed to providing technology that helps hoteliers adapt to the changing needs of the industry and deliver exceptional guest and staff experiences.”

    OPERA Cloud’s integration capabilities and global network of technology partners were specifically recognized by customers as a strength of the platform. The report adds that “Oracle’s API-first strategy allows customization and extensions of products to allow customers—even those with multi-PMS strategies—to tailor workflows, rapidly innovate, and differentiate themselves in the marketplace.”

In tandem, Oracle Hospitality OPERA Sales and Event Management enable staff to maximize revenue by providing real time detailed information on hotel rooms and event spaces, including functional-space availability, room availability, menus, package, and pricing options.

    By leveraging the Oracle Hospitality Integration Platform, Gervasi was also able to quickly add Book4Time to manage reservations and ancillary revenue operations at its new spa, enabling guests to book appointments online.

  • The largest multinational hotel group based in Portugal is standardizing its global properties on Oracle OPERA Cloud Property Management and Simphony Point-of-Sale systems

    Austin, Texas—June 27, 2023
    Pestana Hotel Group

    Pestana Hotel Group, operator of more than 100 hotels and resorts across Europe, North and South América and Africa, is standardizing its properties on Oracle Hospitality OPERA Cloud Property Management System (PMS) and MICROS Simphony Cloud Point-of-Sale (POS). By having its systems and data connected across all its properties, the Group will be able to better manage its operations and staff to help maximize profitability and deliver exceptional guest experiences.

    “When we decided to simplify our operations by moving to the cloud we did our due diligence by reviewing multiple offerings, and after a thorough review Oracle still came out as the clear choice with the best technology,” said Gonçalo Marques Oliveira, executive committee member and CIO for Pestana Hotel Group. “Oracle has been a trusted technology partner for Pestana Hotel Group for more than 17 years. Their cloud expertise and experienced client services team have been essential in making this an essential transition.”

     

    One solution for a global enterprise

    With 12,000 rooms across 16 countries, Pestana Hotel Group required a solution that would work in over 108 different hotel and resort locations meeting fiscal, legal, and language requirements. By relying on Oracle’s library of OPERA Digital Learning content and leveraging OPERA Cloud’s intuitive user interface, staff members are able to get up to speed quickly and easily move between properties as needed.

    Additionally, MICROS Simphony Cloud POS will be used across the various restaurants, bars, lounges, and pool areas. Access to business insights by individual location, the Group can monitor the popularity of their top or least preferable menu items to make adjustments, better understand peak dining times so they are properly staffed, and better manage inventory to preserve margins and reduce waste.

    With OPERA Cloud, Pestana Hotel Group also plans to increase revenue opportunities and boost occupancy as its global footprint expands with flexible rate and inventory control options and advanced reservations functionality. With plans to grow its business, OPERA Cloud can scale with the Group’s business, while still retaining the centralized functionality that helps its properties run more efficiently.

    In addition, Pestana plans to leverage the Oracle Hospitality Integration Platform (OHIP) within OPERA Cloud to quickly connect with third-party providers from Oracle’s immense partner network. They will look to integrate new products and services such as centralized billing, reservation, and reporting systems, which will help meet changing guest expectations for a high-value, but relatively low-touch experience. With OHIP, Pestana can quickly ‘plug-in’ the business and consumer friendly services it needs to continually innovate and deliver compelling new offerings to its guests.

    “With its move to OPERA Cloud, Pestana has been able to maintain the core business processes that it built around OPERA 5, and then take them to the next level with even better functionality, performance, and scalability,” said Alex Alt, executive vice president and general manager of Oracle Hospitality. “With simplified IT and an open architecture, Pestana Hotel Group is set up for success for many years to come.”

  • Oracle Hospitality Integration Platform (OHIP)
    A cloud-native integration solution, which centralizes, consolidates, and streamlines all our interface capabilities and related processes into a single & unified platform. OHIP makes it simpler, quicker, and less expensive to integrate with OPERA Cloud....

  • Designed from the cloud down

    OHIP is a cloud-native solution “designed from the cloud down” to help customers and partners meet not just today’s marketplace demands but tomorrow’s as well. The entire platform runs in Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI), specifically in Kubernetes, as fully stateless and independently deployable microservices. This modern architecture enables OHIP and its key components, such as the developer portal and API gateways (runtime component responsible for providing secure and rapid access to our hospitality APIs), to be highly scalable and capable of securely handling high levels of throughput.

    Built by builders for builders

    Oracle Hospitality Integration Platform is designed for self-service integations. We give customers and integration partners the modern, powerful tools they need to build their integrations, and then we get out of their way. (Don’t worry, our experts are ready and willing to help, if needed.) The intuitive, partner-focused developer portal offers the following features:

    Search hospitality APIs through a responsive user interface

    Access detailed API documentation through an interactive page enabled with Apiary Embed capability

    Discover the different resources available in an API, including visualization of request/response schemas, sample payloads, and client-code generation in multiple languages, such as Java, JavaScript, Python and Go

    Interact with Oracle Apiary’s mock and debugging servers

    Register and manage applications, including issuing and re-issuing of Application Keys

    Subscribe applications to use hospitality APIs

    Visualize and manage application metadata such as contact details, Application Keys, and to which APIs an application is subscribed

    Not just open, open source

    The pandemic underscored the need for hospitality providers to have flexible systems that can be adapted quickly to exceed changing guest expectations. Making it easier for partners to adapt and innovate, Oracle has made the REST API specifications in OHIP freely available as an open source project through GitHub.

    By opening the REST API specifications for Oracle Hospitality OPERA Cloud, the entire hospitality industry can directly benefit from years of development efforts. The move not only offers hoteliers a way to adopt new solutions faster, but it also represents a considerable step towards having a common industry reference for REST APIs.

    Along with the full set of REST API specifications, accompanying Postman collections with over 1,000 sample messages are now available in our Oracle Hospitality GitHub Repository. Developers are actively using these samples as the framework for researching and building their own integrations. 

    Solid security for piece of mind in modern times

    Security is paramount in Oracle Hospitality Integration Platform. All our APIs offer fine-grained OAuth 2.0 based security plus individual application-key based access. In addition, hotels can decide exactly who has access to what APIs in their environment. OHIP offers users a true self-service experience that requires no Oracle intervention.
