Instant Software Announces the Vacation Rental Industry�s Only Reliable Tool for Regional and National Industry Statistics
Snowmass Village, CO � September 2008 � During Instant Software�s RezFest 2008 Conference (September 18-20), Instant Software announced one of the most powerful and impactful business intelligence tools for property managers in the Vacation Rental industry, called Instant Analysis. Instant Analysis is a feature that collects and organizes reservations data so users can access vital stats such as year-on-year and year-to-date performance, in order to make the most informed business decisions.

Instant Analysis is a new feature in Instant Software�s ISILink, which is Instant Software�s data hub integrated to all of Instant Software�s market leading products, that organizes and sends data between Instant Software�s Reservations and Business Management Solutions and an entire suite of online solutions, including web distribution to a network of booking websites that attract over 15 million potential travelers per month. It is the only real-time Global Distribution System for the Vacation Rental industry.

Instant Analysis reports initially focus on statistics such as: number of reservations; revenue; nights; and commission income. They show the management company�s performance over time, profile its renters, and provide tools that show how each homeowner is doing this year compared to prior years.

The tools are flexible. Users may open pre-formatted reports and modify them to add filters or sort the data for whatever they need to analyze.

This introductory tool set will analyze data from the user�s company, but by year-end 2008, Instant Analysis will allow participating companies to compare their statistics to the average statistics for their region and country as a whole. Analysis capabilities will include advance booking patterns, pricing, discounting, and renter preference for specific home types, sizes and locations. Instant Analysis provides the basis for the only �intelligent� yield management system in the Vacation Rental industry.

�Because the Instant Software family of products serves the nation�s largest client base,� explains Dave Hopcroft, CEO of Instant Software, �Instant Analysis� regional, national, and international statistics will become the industry�s major and only reliable source of industry trends.�
