The document discusses choosing software for a resort business. It recommends industry-specific software to automate procedures, increase efficiency, and save money. Key factors in choosing software include support for different product and calendar types, tracking leads through sale and calculating commissions. The software should save more than it costs through reduced time, money and frustration. New cloud-based software-as-a-service models are discussed as alternatives to old on-premise models, providing benefits like no servers/licenses and monthly subscriptions over large upfront costs. Essential software requirements for resorts include modules for marketing, sales, front office, back office and interactive web pages.
