Admin – OTAs, CM and PMS

Change CM and PMS

All OTAs are assigned to various hosts. CM or channel manager and examples are Myallocator and Vik Channel Manager. These are software that works with the OTAs. PMS or property management systems are software that works with CM to exchange information with the OTAs. We will move from Myallocator to Vik Channel Manager and from Cloudbeds to Vik Bookings. This transition will take approximate one month starting from this Sunday 18/06/2023.
