Tour operator system vs. Excel

?You have probably wondered – is Excel

enough for my business process?

What does tour operator system offers and Excel not?

?

Can you even compare these two tools?

?

Here are reasons why Excel cannot compare to tour operator system.

#1Excel isn’t specialized for the travel branch

Excel is used by different business organizations,

so it’s not good to use it since your travel

business is unique.

A tour operator system is an all in one solution and what excel can do is only 10% of what a

tour operator system has.

#2 Waisting a huge amount of time

Having an all in one solution helps you avoid

manual work, automatically generates

the prices, itineraries, financial reports etc.

This is only to show you the idea of how

this speeds up your work and empowers

the efficiency.

#3Neverending numbers and the

complexity of usage

Only basic tasks are familiar in Excel; for

more advanced features you need a lot of time to be properly

mastered.

An automated tour

operator system

takes the guesswork

out, because

you don’t need

formulas running through your head.

#4Missing crucial

reports that a tour operator system has out-of-the-

box

The profits, losses, margins,

invoiced amounts, etc. are

spread in hundreds of excel

files, not giving you an

overview of your profit.

With a tour operator system it’s possible to get all reports (manage money,

budgets, free seats, track invoices and payments etc.)

#5You are not

organized the way you should be

Enter your information once and manage it all from one central

place.

#6Mistakes can be very dangerous

Manual data entry process usually

leads to mistakesand data can get

corrupted.

#7The data isn’t

centralized

Separate Excel worksheets

can lead to chaos

comparing to tour

operator system from

where you manage all

emails, customers,

suppliers, etc.

#8No collaboration

between employees

Each department usually manages

their own spreadsheet, which makes collaboration

amongst teams almost impossible.

A tour operator system gives you history overview of everything that was done

with all reservations and data.

#9No services and

financial real-time insights

When employees need to manually enter data into a spreadsheet, no one ever has real-time insight into how much money their company

is making.

#10No secure data

With a cloud based tour operator system the information cannot be lost due to viruses or computer

crash-downs, it’s possible to access this data from anywhere, at anytime.

#11Decision making is

not easy

Excel doesn’t offer an audit trail to show how your business records have changed nor

provide you with real-time financial data for

accurate decision making.

A cloud based travel software automatically converts data into actionable information, which can be used for business

decision making.
