ORLANDO, FLORIDA and DALLAS, TEXAS – JANUARY 9, 2024 – ROOMDEX, the sole provider of attribute-based upselling for hotels, has announced a strategic partnership with DerbySoft.

The arrangement is the latest collaboration between DerbySoft and WebBeds (the parent company of ROOMDEX), who are working together on hotel solutions that reduce the cost of distribution and drive incremental revenue through inventory merchandising innovation.

DerbySoft is a global technology company that has connected Suppliers with Distributors since 2002 and currently offers a variety of solutions for the hospitality and travel industries. Property Connector is a single platform to connect to all distribution and digital marketing Partners. It is a one-stop management of and fast access to 500+ distribution channels worldwide, including property websites, OTAs, GDS, TMCs, Metasearch, Wholesalers, and Social

ROOMDEX is an automated upselling solution noted for being the hotel industry’s sole provider of data-proven ABS (Attribute-based Selling) for upselling. ABS means selling or awarding individual, immutable room features such as a balcony, a view, a room on a high floor, etc. ROOMDEX ABS dynamically prices individual room attributes based on availability, persona, and other attribute pairings. With ABS, guests choose the room features they want for a more personalized experience.

“We are excited to be able to collaborate with WebBeds and ROOMDEX on this initiative,” said Duane Overgaard, President of Connectivity and Senior Vice-President for DerbySoft. “Properties are looking to ensure the smoothest guest experience from reservation to checkout while still improving margins in an increasingly competitive marketplace. This package opportunity checks both boxes by delivering the top tier technology in each product’s respective class.”

“Today’s hotels are looking for new ideas to drive new business,” said James Phillips, President of WebBeds Americas. “The solution lies in technologies that move and merchandise inventory in new ways. The partnership with DerbySoft promises to be a big winner for hotel executives looking for a competitive edge.”
