RevControl

Category: Revenue management

Automated dynamic pricing and rate publishing for hotels, hostels and holiday parks.

RevControl is a revenue management system for hotels, hostels and holiday parks, built around automated rate recommendations that publish straight into the property's existing PMS or channel manager. The system connects to the property's PMS or channel manager, reads occupancy, reservations and business on the books, and generates rate recommendations up to 365 days in advance, calculated up to four times per hour. Operators can accept recommendations manually, or run automatic or hybrid publishing, and can lock individual days to protect their own overrides. Alongside pricing it provides competitor rate intelligence with rate parity tracking, pickup alerts when demand moves unexpectedly, group rate recommendations, rate buckets that open and close rate groups against occupancy, and reporting against budgets, historical results and same time last year performance. RevControl is not a PMS, channel manager, booking engine or CRM. It reads property data from a connected system and sends rates and supported restrictions back for onward distribution. It is offered in three plans, Basic, Essentials and Pro, with optional add-ons for rate buckets, group rate recommendations, extended forecasting and longer booking history. Pricing is quoted by the vendor, and annual contracts are paid upfront. RevControl states that it lists more than 50 PMS and channel manager integrations, a number of which run through SiteMinder Exchange. HotelTechReport reviews rate it 4.6 out of 5 for ease of use and 4.9 out of 5 for customer service. These figures are supplied by RevControl and are not independently verified by HotelLogic.
