Hospitality industry innovators' partnership will benefit hotel labor management and provide multi-property analysis, panic buttons and safety systems.

WrkSpot, an innovator in hotel operations and panic solutions, has announced a robust two-way integration with HotelKey, a next-generation hospitality management system platform.

The strategic partnership between the companies supports the integration of WrkSpot's hotel productivity, labor management and compliance application with HotelKey's hospitality management system.

With a single SaaS solution, hoteliers will be able to get work done more effectively and efficiently.

"HotelKey and WrkSpot's integration showcases the common goals between our companies, streamlining management and operations, while improving guest experience," said HotelKey Sr. Director of Sales & Marketing Katrina Stephenson. "We look forward to combining our technology with the capabilities of WrkSpot."

OTA Insight Appoints Gregory Peppel as Head of Business Intelligence Products

OTA Insight, the global leader in cloud-based hospitality business intelligence, today announced the appointment of Gregory Peppel to the product leadership team. As the new Head of Business Intelligence (BI) Products, Gregory will play an instrumental role in advancing OTA Insight's BI solutions.

For over 15 years, Gregory has specialized in hospitality-centered product development, creating vertically-integrated SaaS BI products and cultivated high-performance product development teams. His background includes a successful tenure at Avero, where he contributed to the expansion of their F&B BI product into 12 of the top 15 largest global hotel brands.

The addition of Peppel to the OTA Insight team is another strategic move to reinforce the company's leadership position in the BI space. In his new role, Gregory will concentrate on driving innovation within OTA Insight's existing BI products: Revenue Insight and Spider, the latter of which was added to the OTA Insight product portfolio through last year's acquisition of Kriya RevGEN. Additionally, Gregory will help expand OTA Insight's BI capabilities by introducing new products that meet the demands of hotel commercial teams.

Bill Daviau, CEO of Kriya RevGEN, commented on the company's growth since merging with OTA Insight in April 2022, "We've experienced remarkable progress with our two revenue management-focused BI platforms, Spider and Revenue Insight. However, we've only just begun to tap into the potential of a comprehensive commercial BI platform."

"I've known Greg for over 15 years and knew he'd not only make an immediate impact on our business processes and product vision but also be an excellent cultural fit and liaison between Kriya RevGEN and OTA Insight. We're thrilled to integrate Spider into the overall OTA Insight platform later this year and continue to expand its capabilities in the future."

OTA Insight proudly serves over 60,000 hoteliers in 185 countries. Winner of the Best Rate Shopping & Market Intelligence Solution, Parity Management Software and Business Intelligence categories in the 2021, 2022 and 2023 HotelTechAwards, OTA Insight is widely recognised as a leader in hospitality business intelligence.

Experts on Social Media’s Rising Influence on the Travel Industry

Social media has become a significant tool for the travel industry, influencing the way people travel and the choices they make when planning their trips.

Inspiring Vacations

According to award-winning tour operator, Inspiring Vacations, which offers travel experiences all around the world, including tours to Egypt and tours of Cape York, there has been a significant rise in the influence of social media on the travel industry.

Inspiring Vacations explains social media provides a platform for travellers to share their experiences and recommendations. User-generated content has become a valuable resource for others planning trips, with travellers looking to social media for inspiration and advice on where to go, what to do and where to stay. 

Social media has also provided a platform for travel influencers and bloggers to share their experiences and recommendations with a large audience. Inspiring Vacations says these influencers have become powerful voices in the travel industry, with many people relying on their recommendations when planning their trips. Travel influencers have also changed the way brands approach marketing, with many companies partnering with influencers to promote their products and services.

Many travellers are now turning to social media platforms to research and book their trips. Inspiring Vacations uses platforms such as Instagram and Facebook to offer travel booking options, allowing users to book flights, accommodations and activities directly from the app. This convenience has made it easier for people to plan and book their trips, without the need to visit multiple websites or make phone calls.

Inspiring Vacations cautions that social media's rising influence on the travel industry has also led to some negative consequences. The pressure to create the perfect travel experience for social media can lead to over-tourism and the exploitation of local cultures and communities. The focus on capturing the perfect photo or video can also detract from the actual travel experience, leading to a loss of authenticity and spontaneity.

Australian-owned Inspiring Vacations is dedicated to creating exceptional, value-for-money travel experiences for customers across the globe. The packages are carefully crafted to ensure that each trip is unique and unforgettable, with options ranging from fully guided tours including the best guided tours Egypt-wide and tours to Cape York, as well as self-drive adventures, luxury cruises, iconic train journeys and so much more.
