CUSTOMER CASE STUDY
SiteMinder
Cloud-based communications for a unified workforce
ABOUT SITEMINDER
SiteMinder is the world’s leading hotel technology provider. Founded in 2006, SiteMinder was born out of the need for hotels to exchange booking information with the websites they listed their rooms on.
They pioneered the concept of channel management for a fixed monthly fee, making distribution affordable for every hotel.
They provide technology solutions to 35,000 hotels worldwide and are the recipient of awards that include 2020’s #1 Channel Manager Software and one of the top three most customer-centric companies by Hotel Tech Report.
CHALLENGES
SiteMinder is a multi-site organisation with offices distributed globally including London, Dallas, Bangkok, Sydney, Galway, and Cape Town. Communications across these sites were not operating as a unified whole, and as such were not taking advantage of what a unified cloud communications solution could bring to their business operations, productivity, and customer engagement.
SOLUTION SUMMARY
SiteMinder required unification of their global sites and 925 staff through transitioning to cloud-based unified communications including virtual cloud contact centre. Arrow provided a custom-designed solution powered by 8×8 X Series.
The global deployment addressed the need for unified communications across all sites and optimise the customer experience through a cloud contact centre solution, under a 24/7 support model.
