Fragmented Tech Holds Back Hotel Personalization
Duane Overgaard puts it plainly: fragmented hotel technology is the biggest bottleneck blocking real guest personalization. According to his analysis on Hotel News Resource, siloed systems prevent seamless data sharing and coordinated service delivery across departments.
I see an old problem with a clear fix. The trick isn't to buy more tools, but to connect the ones you already have. Hotels that build an integrated ecosystem (PMS, CRM, booking engine, guest app) can finally deliver the personalized experiences OTAs have been promising for years.
This isn't a crisis, it's an opportunity. Whoever solves the tech silo wins loyalty and rate. And startups that help piece these systems together have a goldmine ahead.
