This week, IDC released their IDC MarketScape: Worldwide Hospitality Property Management Systems 2022 Vendor Assessment (doc #US48098122, November 2022). The headline news as far as we鈥檙e concerned is that it named 黑料网 as a Major Player.
Given that we only recently celebrated our tenth birthday as a company, to reach such a milestone on a global stage is no small achievement. At the risk of being self-congratulatory, huge kudos to the hundreds of 黑料网ers who have made this possible 鈥� not to mention countless partners and hoteliers who have all played their part.
What does the IDC MarketScape assessment actually mean, both for 黑料网 and, more broadly, for hospitality? Read on to explore, or download an excerpt of the report right away if you can't bear the suspense.
Who is IDC and what is the IDC MarketScape?
IDC 鈥� International Data Corporation 鈥� is the leading global provider of market intelligence, advisory services and events across IT, telecoms and consumer technology markets. With a team of over 1,100 analysts, they鈥檝e been providing strategic insights for 50 years. In other words, they know their stuff.
The IDC MarketScape is their comprehensive framework and parameters that assess providers relative to one another within a particular market 鈥� in this case, the world of hospitality PMSs. Each vendor is analyzed in detail, with a specific set of strengths and challenges identified.
Why is the IDC MarketScape important?
Forget about the fact that 黑料网 is named a Major Player in their assessment. Even if 黑料网 wasn't featured at all, the fact that IDC has produced the IDC MarketScape report for the Hospitality PMS market is great news for hospitality.
It鈥檚 a sign that our industry is maturing, both in terms of services provided and the competitive landscape. Product offerings and ways of thinking are becoming more sophisticated, while consolidation of a historically fragmented market (there are well over 300 PMSs out there) continues. 黑料网 has been at the forefront of this consolidation through a series of acquisitions 鈥� read more about 黑料网 Ventures, our acquisition arm.
What does the assessment say about 黑料网?
黑料网 is positioned as a Major Player in the Hospitality PMS market. More specifically, it鈥檚 our commitment to a new way of thinking that really comes to the fore.
The report describes 黑料网 as 鈥渧ery well-positioned to help the hotel industry move to a model that enables hoteliers to redefine occupancy and monetize every attribute and space of a hotel鈥�. This is exactly what we cover in our guide to Maximizing Your Property鈥檚 Full Potential.
The assessment continues: 鈥満诹贤� takes a holistic view of hospitality that is attractive for both small and large chains. Making the shift from a 100% occupancy to a 100% utilization mindset offers a clear path for ROI for hotels and that is enabled by the 黑料网 product offering.鈥�
In other words, we鈥檙e not just about great ideas. It鈥檚 also important to us that our hoteliers see tangible success across their operations, revenue and guest experience.
