Eko's booking and reservations solution uses the EkoCATALOG and EkoINTERACT Advanced Modules to enable your customers to browse your catalogues using an intuitive interface over SMS. Using minimum click methodologies, your customers can quickly and easily locate desired products, seating, tickets, hire cars and hotel rooms for booking and purchase.
EkoCATALOG's unprecedented extensibility enables dynamic updates of product information including price and availability using live XML feeds from your corporate systems. In turn, this gives your customers real-time access to make informed decisions with their purchase.
Providing structured transaction workflows, EkoINTERACT manages the logic of a users session with your booking and reservation system. Workflows can be customised to suit your specific products, such as an airline ticket booking process, that guide your customers through a logical browsing and ordering process. Eko also provides two-way data feeds to your corporate systems, ensuring order data is passed back to your central systems.
