Web Applications’ latest and most innovative product is Babel, a sophisticated web service designed to allow rapid plug and play integrations of third party systems to the Tr@veller family of products.

This includes suppliers like Hotelbeds in the hotels market (or indeed any other product supplier of your choice that has an XML feed). You can also access a wide variety of transport options like low cost flights, car hire, transfers and ferries and services like credit card gateways or postcode look-up companies.

In your call centre, Reservation Staff can access and book contracted stock held in Tr@veller and stock from any number of third party suppliers concurrently once they are integrated to Babel. Websites can do this too with online bookings recorded in Tr@veller. Of course booking from a wider choice of product will increase conversion rates and profit - Babel will soon pay for itself! What Babel gives you is a solid, future proofed, platform to develop websites against without having to be worried about being tied to any particular information provider. Swapping providers requires a simple change in configuration, the website itself will just carry on working.
