LANCOM hotspot solution compatible with the hotel accounting system protel
Hotel Internet made easy
Aachen, March 06, 2014—The hotspot solution from LANCOM Systems, the leading German manufacturer of networking solutions for enterprises and the public sector, now supports the hotel accounting system from protel in addition to that from Micros Fidelio. This ensures that hotel guests have quick and easy access to the wireless LAN. The system automatically authenticates the guests and conveniently adds any costs to the room bill, so making life easier for guests and hoteliers alike.
Hoteliers who offer wireless Internet access to their guests can seamlessly operate the LANCOM WLAN hotspot solution with their protel accounting system: After extensive testing, LANCOM Systems and protel have signed a confirmation of compatibility.
Full flexibility of pricing for hoteliers
The LANCOM hotspot solution is independent of any providers, so that hoteliers are free to set the pricing of their choice: Hoteliers can decide for themselves whether the system automatically books the Internet usage fees to the guests' room bills, or whether Internet access is available for free.
Easy authentication at the hotspot
The LANCOM solution offers the hotel guests user-friendly and automatic Internet access: For example, guests can login to the hotspot simply with their name and room number. Thanks to the compatibility of the LANCOM hotspot solution with the protel hotel accounting system, the laborious production of one-time login credentials and complex registration procedures have become things of the past.
