Corporate Travelers Empowered with the Launch of New Traveler-Friendly Enhancements
ATLANTA, Dec. 20 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- TRX, Inc. (Nasdaq: TRXI - News), a global technology company that develops and hosts software applications to process data records and automate manual processes, today announced the release of RESX v7.2.
RESX is a leading online booking tool allowing corporate travelers to create policy-compliant and on-budget travel reservations via a hosted Web interface.
"Our latest development efforts are trending towards end-user functionality. RESX v7.2 is the beginning of our Traveler Empowerment feature suite, and we have several other traveler-related features planned for near- term release," said Shane Hammond, President, RESX Technologies.
RESX v7.2 provides travelers and travel arrangers with rich hotel and destination related media content that dramatically enhances the RESX hotel shopping experience. Users can now view multiple hotel images and slideshows for hundreds of thousands of hotel properties around the world, obtain driving directions for any destination, and access key destination information directly from the RESX itinerary page.
In addition, users have the ability to synchronize trip reservations with their e-calendar in one easy step. As changes are made to the travel itinerary, RESX automatically updates calendar entries, ensuring travelers and travel arrangers always have the most up-to-date details on current and pending trips.
"With these latest enhancements, RESX Technologies is addressing perceived differences between corporate booking tools and leisure booking sites. The new hotel images, driving directions, and the upcoming mobile application are user-friendly and provide added value to simplify the travel experience. With RESX offering a global multi-GDS solution, supporting multiple currencies and more than eight languages, TRAVELSAVERS' agencies in 14 countries can use the technology to compete even more effectively in the global marketplace," said Betty Tilton, VP Corporate Sales and Marketing at TRAVELSAVERS.
The latest release also includes the pilot launch of the RESX Mobile(TM) application which provides travelers instant on-demand access to their trips via their mobile devices. RESX Mobile also offers the ability to check flight status and arrival and departure gate information, along with displaying key information such as hotel contact information, confirmation numbers and approvals, and ticketing status.
