Small Hotels Online Booking Software Solution
Designing, building and deploying a Ruby on Rails, React.js, Gatsby and Contentful to deliver small hotels online booking solution.
Client Challenge
TMC Group - is an investor in multiple real estate development projects in the hospitality domain. The client manages a number of companies and operates under some such brands as BODE and Drift, whereby they set up and manage best in class apartment facilities and lodgings offered for rent to travelling communities, groups and individuals.
Service Process
The processes involved in the operations of the businesses rest on a suite of integrated back-end software solutions as well as customer-facing websites, e.g. Sidebarnash, Chattanooga, Nashville or Neighborhoodporch. SoftKraft has been engaged to deliver services on a number of software development and integration projects.
Project Results
Besides websites, we worked on one of the major projects aimed to customise an existing Property Management System and integrate it with external systems to support the functionalities and data flows specific for the client’s business model. The centralised application integrates such external systems as: RemoteLock, HotSos, TrackHS, Revinate, DojoMojo, Allbridge and other platforms like Facebook and Google (for accounts management), Twilio, Stripe and Shopify.
Most projects have been implemented with the following technology stack: RubyOnRails, ReactJS, Vuexy, Netlify, AWS, Heroku, PostgreSQL, Redis, Gatsby and Contentful.
