Paul Smith's College, a private institution located within the Adirondack Park, has selected Hotelogix's
property management system (PMS) to educate their students. The college has implemented the cloud-based management system to familiarize students with modern management techniques that have replaced traditional methods which involved excel sheets and legacy systems.
Occupying over 14,000 acres of estate northwest of Saranac Lake, Paul Smith's offers two-year and four-four year programs in a number of streams including natural resources, biology, culinary arts, and hotel and restaurant management. Having found the system through an online search, the institute was impressed by the positive feedback left by other users and decided to try using the PMS. The college was previously using a legacy system and with technology in hospitality escalating so rapidly, acquainting the next generation of hoteliers with modern systems is the natural thing to do.
Hotelogix had recently entered their 100th country and have been gaining widespread prominence with their intelligently designed property and
distribution management systems. It was among the many factors that encouraged the college to go with the system, along with the simple interface and automation of reservation operations. The group reservation system in particular was highly appreciated by Kelly Cerialo, a member of the teaching staff for Hotel, Resort & Tourism Management. "Hotelogix is easy to understand and straightforward. The group reservation system is especially well thought out," she said.
With cloud technology beginning to firmly establish itself in the industry as the most viable solution for independent as well as large hotels, a number of properties have been migrating to the platform. The coming few years are also projected to witness its increased implementation and colleges see the need to use cloud-based tools to educate aspiring hoteliers.
"
In the next five years, the legacy PMS will cease to exist in the SME establishments of the hospitality industry. It is imperative that the professionals entering the industry stay abreast of technology. At Hotelogix, we're committed to ensuring that this technology is available to such institutes – we delighted to be a part of this educational process!" says Aditya Sanghi, CEO and co-founder of Hotelogix.
Graduates from the Paul Smith's college will benefit from working on cloud-based tools at such an early stage of their career.
