The Administrative and Front Desk GUI, Including Hotel Self-Management, provides a user-friendly interface that simplifies the management of hotel communication services. This feature lets you easily manage your communication services, monitor usage, and troubleshoot issues. The screenshots below demonstrate specific hospitality industry functionality.

The UC Hospitality Console is the primary way the hotel staff will interface with the UC Hospitality system. It's designed to be easy to use and learn and includes built-in help available from the help link.

Rooms

The Rooms page displays all guest rooms and guests. It also allows new guests to be checked in and wake-up calls to be set up.

This is an overview of guest rooms, showing the name of the check-in guest, room status, and scheduled wakeup calls.

The guest info page allows the viewing and editing of group affiliation, VIP status, voicemail, calling permissions, DID numbers, and additional guests. Call and wakeup call history and a list of voicemails are also available.

 

Guest Broadcast

This allows messages to be sent to guests as active calls or voicemails. It is used to notify all guests about events, hotel-wide maintenance issues, or emergencies.

It allows the creation of text-to-speech messages that will be delivered to guests via an active phone call or placed into their voicemail.

Broadcasts are attempted as soon as they are submitted; there is no option to schedule them later.

When creating a call broadcast, the options are:

  • Concern: A name for the call event.
  • Type: Active call or a voicemail.
  • Call Limit: The number of guests who will receive the call simultaneously. A call broadcast will try all checked-in guests.
  • Retry timer: how soon to retry if the guest does not answer.
  • Retries: How many retries after the first attempt should be performed for guests who did not receive the call?
  • Message: The text of the message that will be played to the guests.

Always play the message before clicking submit to ensure correct pronunciation and timing.
