Carsolize is a Software as a SERVICE. Our license and maintenance costs are easily covered with as little as 16 bookings a month, while our distribution tools enable expo-nential sales growth through sub agents and affiliates.
Beyond the provision of cutting edge technology (which features over 250,000 unique hotels, aggregated and standardized, with Net/Gross/Rack rates from 25+ wholesalers) we extend our expertise, and industry connections.
The fact we have 25 suppliers connected, does not mean you need them all. With some – perhaps you even can’t, while with others – you simply don’t need.
Our implementation process includes enhanced analysis of our client’s business model, clientele, top destinations, and product categories. Armed with this information, we con-sult on and introduce to the right suppliers, support the negotiation process, and help to obtain XML credentials in a timely manner.
Working with Carsolize cuts down time-to-market from years to weeks, and provides a great opportunity to create distinct Unique Business Proposition.

We often come across companies who seek to have maximum control over technology, and choose to create their own solutions.
Unless you are first and foremost and IT company, who decided to enter the travel indus-try, developing your own software is one of the riskiest and most expensive ways to equip your company with travel software. After all, cost of high quality programmer starts with EUR 2,000 a month, with average being EUR 5,000/month. And that is just one programmer:
- High cost of specialized development team (2-3 years development cycle) - High cost of permanent maintenance team to keep the system live - High cost of missed opportunities due to lack of technology while in development
Considering that the cost of deploying Carsolize may be covered with as few as 16 bookings a month, and instant time to market – clearly, there is little justification for own development, especially for small to mid-size companies.
