Through an integration with the world’s leading PMS, OPERA users now have access to a seamless digital check-in solution that allows 100% of guests to bypass the front desk
AUSTIN, Texas – July 12, 2021 – Virdee, a SaaS company delivering digital check-in and virtual concierge services to the hospitality and commercial real estate industries, has achieved Oracle Validated Integration with Oracle Hospitality Expertise that allows communication with OPERA, the global leader in hotel PMS systems. The partnership empowers hotels running on the OPERA system to leverage Virdee’s unique functionality, bypassing the front desk, marketing room upgrades and early check-in/checkout, assigning rooms, and verifying guest identity with reservation data during the check-in process.
Virdee provides a full contactless check-in experience, empowering 100% of hotel guests to check-in either via kiosk or their mobile device, receive a digital or physical key and head straight to their guestroom without ever standing in line at the front desk.
Expertise is a core tenet of the modernized Oracle PartnerNetwork (OPN) program and allows Oracle partners to highlight their capabilities in a focused area. Ultimately, Expertise is designed to make it easy for customers to identify partners who can deliver quality solutions and minimize risk for their specific needs.
