In a hotel, a system outage shows straight away: a queue at reception, invoices that will not print, guests without Wi-Fi writing their review while still in the room. To avoid that cost, BeHotel Lisboa, a four-star property, handed all its technology to DataRoad - IT Services and Consulting in 2019. The annual IT Unlimited contract covers workstations, wireless network, printing, servers and internet connection, with managed IT on a continuous basis.

Why can a hotel's technology not fail?

A hotel never closes. If the Wi-Fi or the property management system (PMS) goes down, check-in stops, billing falls behind and the stay gets worse in real time. Here, stability is an operational requirement, not a technical detail.

Reception, housekeeping and back office all depend on the same systems. Any failure passes straight on to the guest.

Which areas moved to DataRoad's management?

  • Workstations Ongoing technical support for teams in every area of the hotel.
  • Wireless network Management and maintenance of Wi-Fi for internal operations and for guests.
  • Servers and printing Maintenance that keeps the hotel management systems available.
  • Internet Connectivity monitored and managed.
  • Prevention Proactive monitoring, remote support, alerting and reports.

How do you stop a problem reaching the guest?

With continuous oversight. Monitoring catches network drops, servers at their limit and devices losing performance before anyone notices. Remote support fixes many of these cases without a visit.

Regular reports give the hotel's management an objective view of the infrastructure. Replacements and investments are planned with data, instead of decided in a hurry after a breakdown.

What does the hotel gain?

  • Continuous operations Faults detected before they affect guests.
  • Reliable Wi-Fi Essential to the stay and to internal processes.
  • Engineers certified By several network and security manufacturers.
  • Informed decisions Reports that support the technology budget.
