About the Project

Our client offers a sophisticated hotel management solution that gives independent properties the same technological edge as major chains. This cloud-based SaaS platform combines critical hospitality functions such as property management, global distribution, bookings, and marketing in one accessible system, eliminating the need for multiple software subscriptions. Hotel operators particularly value its straightforward design that works across all major devices.

While respecting our client’s wish for discretion regarding their identity, we can reveal they serve thousands of independent hoteliers, small hotel chains, and hotel management companies across North America and Europe with a reputation for innovation in the hospitality technology sector.

This SaaS platform dismantles operational silos by integrating previously separate hotel functions. Independent hoteliers gain complete control over their property’s digital presence, inventory, and guest relationships. Staff members save significant time managing daily tasks through the unified interface of the platform.

The system addresses unique challenges faced by small hotel operators in the digital marketplace. Direct bookings increase profits by eliminating third-party fees. Global distribution expands market reach beyond local tourism. Real-time synchronization prevents double bookings. Custom reporting enables data-driven decisions that optimize pricing based on market conditions.

The key features of the platform are:

  • Property management system
  • Commission-free booking engine
  • Native GDS integration
  • Revenue manager
  • Credit card processing
  • Data security
  • Customizable reports

The Challenge

Our client maintains an in-house hotel management software development team focused on continuous improvement. They prioritize software quality enhancement, feature expansion, and customization service options. To accelerate growth, they partner with third-party providers for specialized expertise.

The company's development ecosystem includes offices in the US and India, plus several software vendors globally. Despite this network, they initially needed strong front-end expertise for their React-based interface. Their roadmap demanded rapid platform extension to address market needs and client requests.

Our Process

When approaching ELITEX, the client initially sought senior front-end engineers from a single location. As the collaboration progressed, they expanded their needs to include back-end specialists and technical consultancy for testing methodologies.

The collaboration implements agile development practices with two-week sprints, daily standups, and regular retrospectives. Our DevOps approach integrated CI/CD pipelines for automated testing and deployment, ensuring code quality while accelerating release cycles (one of the main requests from the customer’s side).

The partnership began with ELITEX team members under client management. As the relationship grew, we established local team lead positions to enhance coordination and efficiency.

Our Solution

ELITEX initially deployed senior front-end engineers to strengthen the client’s development capacity. Following successful UI improvements, our partnership evolved to include backend developers and QA engineers, creating a self-sufficient Ukrainian team.

Our engineers handle core product development, frontend and backend programming, code clean-up, refactoring, and quality assurance. We adjusted work schedules to create substantial time zone overlap with US operations, enabling real-time collaboration through daily meetings.

The Result

Our partnership delivered tangible improvements to the client’s hotel management platform. Through focused expertise, we helped transform both their product and development practices.

Working with ELITEX helped our customer to:

  • Accelerate the development process through optimized workflows and agile practices;
  • Extend the engineering capacity with specialized front-end and back-end talent;
  • Significantly improve the code quality via rigorous standards and automated testing;
  • Enhance UI expertise with React specialists who modernized the interface;
  • Implement structured QA processes that catch issues earlier in development.

This collaboration continues to support the client’s business goals and market position in the competitive sector of hotel management software development.

Our Project Team

Our collaboration evolved from a focused front-end team to a comprehensive development unit. The team initially consisted of 4 React specialists before expanding to include back-end developers and QA engineers, eventually to a dozen professionals.

The team operates across three global regions, providing specialized support to the client’s Asian and American development teams through technical reviews and consultancy. This multi-location approach ensures continuous progress despite time zone differences.

ELITEX manage talent acquisition, screening candidates for technical skills and cultural fit before presenting finalists to the client. This process ensures team composition matches evolving project needs while maintaining high standards for hotel PMS software development.
