San Diego, CA, Oct. 01, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Cloudbeds, the premier hospitality management software platform, and Mirai, a leader in hotel distribution technology and direct booking optimization, have today announced a strategic partnership aimed at transforming how hotels manage bookings, distribution, and marketing.
The agreement will provide joint customers with advanced tools to optimize their direct bookings, streamline their operations, and expand their digital marketing efforts.
By integrating Cloudbeds’ property management system (PMS) with Mirai’s technology, Cloudbeds properties will gain access to Mirai’s robust distribution network and powerful marketing tools. Meanwhile, the connection enables Mirai to offer its specialized solutions to a larger group of properties, providing tailored services that meet specific market needs.
Sebastien Leitner, VP of Partnerships at Cloudbeds, said: “Our partnership with Mirai goes far beyond a simple integration – it’s a strategic collaboration that harnesses the strengths of both companies.
