Open Systems - Why Does it Matter?

Simple: Today the value from your online operations is to a great degree derived from how well all the different parts work together, and while the Bookt platform covers a very large part of your needs, Bookt anticipates and encourages that you will want to use your data in other non-Bookt contexts.

If you pick a pick a partner who just pays lip service to supporting an open computing environment, you may find your online growth potential seriously constrained.

5 Key Questions

1. As a client of XYZ Co, am I locked into restrictive data distribution deals or can I chose with whom I would like to work?
2. Does company XYZ provide an open API without a lot of restrictions on potential distribution partners or myself, so I can truly use my data like I see fit?
3. Does company XYZ charge exorbitant fees to potential distribution partners, just for the privilege of promoting my inventory and then turn around and ask for an additional portion of each transaction?
4. Does XYZ provide friendly and easy to work w/ channel support, so when an issue arises, XYZ “owns the issue“ until it is resolved, or do they pass it along to the inventory provider?
5. Does XYZ company really understand what makes today’s consumer book lodging online and provide those data points in their feed (e.g. High Rez Photos, Detailed amenities and descriptions, user reviews, etc.)

With Bookt the answers are of course: No, Yes, No, Yes & Yes.
