Your Business
We understand the value of an exceptional guest experience and hotel rating to your business. Our proven IP-based solution with RESTful API puts you in the driver’s seat to create a guest-centric hotel that keeps guests coming back for more and can help meet certain rating criteria.
Your Energy Costs
Automation and features like occupancy sensing, schedule and daylight harvesting, help hotels reduce their carbon footprint. Plus, our user-friendly dashboards let you see where your energy is going and identify areas of improvement.
Your Hotel and Its Operations
Leverage technology such as RESTful API, BACnet IP, connected controllers and unified systems, to help future-ready your hotel. By Integrating with your rewards program and hotel systems, guests easily engage with services available in the hotel like ordering room service, checking wait times at the restaurant, and finding their way to the gym.
Your Staff and Guests
Guests enjoy a comfortable and convenient stay when they can easily check-in, unlock their door, change temperature, fan speed, light levels, blinds and more, all from their phone. Hotel staff have access to more data points about floors, rooms, services and guests – arming them to deliver the best service possible.
Case Study – The Hotel Britomart

GMB Integrator
Potters Software Developers have developed a multiplatform GMB Integration tool that links together the BMS, Protel, Samsung Reach and Onetouch systems.
The Protel Booking system is linked through the GMB to the BMS, meaning when a room is booked by an end user the room is automatically switched into occupied mode for the required dates.
The GMB system also interfaces with the Onetouch billing system that has been designed for guests to use in many of the local restaurants , shops and cafes, charging their experience back to their room. Onetouch allows guests to take advantage of special deals that are advertised through the Samsung Reach in room entertainment system.
The Samsung Reach system is another product that we have been able to utilise in the hotel. Using our GMB software we can advertise local Café and Restaurant deals directly through the Samsung Reach interface. The Reach system also allows the added benefit of personalising the guests stay with visual welcome messages and up to date billing information.
