trendtours Touristik GmbH, Germany’s top tour operator for best ager travel, has partnered with ISO Travel Solutions GmbH to modernize its IT landscape and drive digitalization. ISO Travel Solutions, a leading IT company based in Nuremberg, has replaced trendtours’ aging software with modern IT components in a strategic partnership. This move marks a major milestone for trendtours as it positions itself to maintain and expand its position among the top 10 German tour operators in the future.
The project team moved the complete website “trendtours.de” to the content management system of ISO Travel Solutions within a few weeks. Both partners cooperated very closely here and implemented the individual needs of trendtours in an agile and successful manner. The modular ISO Internet Booking Engine was adapted to trendtours’ requirements, and the travel agency systems Bistro, TOMA, and traffic were connected for the first time. The first phase with challenging requirements in an agile project was successfully implemented by ISO by configuring its Pacific modular tour operator system to meet trendtours’ needs.
Additionally, the new central trendtours reservation system from ISO Travel Solutions ensures that all booking data is transferred in parallel to internal systems such as financial accounting and the data warehouse, thereby improving the booking ability across all distribution systems. ISO also connected all well-known charter airlines via pooling interfaces on the purchasing side, further streamlining the booking process. The extranet was developed to automate hotel purchasing to a large extent, and the contract import was adapted to the trendtours specifications, providing a seamless experience for the customers.
David Firle, Managing Director of trendtours Touristik, expressed his excitement about the partnership and its significance for the company: “We are replacing our in-house developed and aging software solutions with the modern IT products from ISO Travel Solutions, thus elevating our primary IT landscape to a new level. The partnership with ISO brings us much closer to our goal of digital, highly automated process orientation throughout the company.”
Markus Kretschmer, Managing Director at ISO Travel Solutions, also expressed his enthusiasm about the successful partnership: “We are delighted that trendtours has chosen us as a strategic partner. The teams worked together perfectly, and we were able to customize and successfully launch our solutions in a short period of time.”
This partnership between trendtours and ISO Travel Solutions is a testament to the increasing importance of digitalization in the travel industry. With ISO Travel Solutions’ expertise and trendtours’ vision, the partnership is well-poised to take on the challenges of the future and lead the way in modernizing the travel industry.
