Amadeus Central Reservation System vs. Axis Suite

Amadeus Reservation System is a travel resource used by travel agents and industry organizations worldwide to book flights, rental cars, cruises, hotels, and other travel experiences. It is user-friendly and provides accurate travel inventory data. Agents benefit from its free training and certification program, and the travel industry likes its efficiency, professional support, and broad offerings. Amadeus is a great travel resource, but its conventional approaches are outdated and burdensome to master.

Axis Suite is extremely valuable as a digital signage tool for organizational communications. If you have the need to get custom information/content out to employees in your organization, I highly recommend Axis Suite. Once it's up and running, the content management system is extremely easy to use--even for those who aren't good with technology. It might be less appropriate if you are a super small organization because of the price tag.

Incentivized

• Expensive subscriptions.
• It takes some effort to book a hotel or car.
• It loads slowly, and updates are rare.

• One slight issue is the complexity of Axis Suite design. It can be extremely complex to design custom content. My organization had to purchase "advanced configuration hours" to create a message that displayed weather information in all of our offices.

Amadeus Reservation System is a top-tier option for booking
travel. It makes sharing airport and baggage policies with passengers easier
and speeds up checking in and paying for flights. It is user- and
operator-friendly, comprehensive, straightforward, precise, and up-to-date with
technological and data developments. When compared to competing systems, it is
both user- and operator-friendly

In full transparency, I did not select Axis Suite. The service was selected by my boss. I inherited content management after she left and I moved into her role. Recently, I successfully pushed for a major software upgrade on the platform. I did this because I was pleased with Axis Suite and I felt like upgrading the content management system and look and feel of the digital signage was in my organization's best interest.
