US: Apartunity, LLC is the official online integration partner for Software Answers, Inc. and its Oscar PMS.
Apartunity says its ApartunityBridge product offers corporate housing companies “a comprehensive solution to automatically connect and distribute their apartment inventory from the Oscar system through a robust channel manager provided by Travelline, Inc.”
By linking the Oscar system to the internet and multiple online travel agencies, corporate housing and furnished apartment companies will now be able to have their apartments booked online in real time. Consumers are now able to book an apartment via a “live” booking system while Oscar clients are able to receive reservations automatically into their Oscar system – mirroring the hotel booking experience. In addition, Apartunity provides each furnished apartment company with a robust search engine which will allow bookings directly on their website.
“ApartunityBridge is a game changer for the industry. In a small market like Jersey City, the number of bookings we have received over the past nine months is astonishing. We now have global reach through the various OTAs and can now have guests from all over the world contact us who never would have been able to find us before. Additionally, I am very excited to be working with the premier property management system in the industry and management team from Software Answers. Our combined industry experience technology expertise, and customer base put Apartunity at the forefront of the technology revolution of the industry and squarely puts Apartunity in the unique position of leading the industry forward,” said Frank Laufer, president of ABA-Ideal Furnished Housing and Apartunity, LLC.
“I am very excited to announce the integration with Apartunity. This integration will allow our client base to compete directly with the hotel industry driving an increase in revenue while reducing overall vacancy for our clients,” said Christopher Couture, vice president and COO for Software Answers, Inc.</p
