Supercontrol Increase in Annual Licence Fee

SuperControl have increased their annual licence fee.

By way of clarity, SuperControl have issued the following explanation:

“The recent increase in our annual licence fee was to enable us to expand our team in order to maintain and build on the high level of service and product innovation that we constantly strive for.

In fact, we have already invested significantly in our infrastructure over the past two years (adding at least 30 new servers) with no price increase.

At the moment, we are working on:

  • Further database upgrades and additional capacity.
  • New infrastructure for improved logging.
  • A total restructure of pricing to massively improve performance at the same time as upgrading functionality.
  • A total revamp of our system security starting with card processing and improved PCI compliance.

We’re also working on a number of system upgrades that will improve SuperControl for our clients and their guests.

The following key development plans are currently under way:

  • Channel management improvements. We’re working to simplify the user interface to make it easier for clients to manage multiple channels.
  • New/improved channel integrations. At the moment, for example, we have active projects with HomeAway, Airbnb, Booking.com, TripAdvisor and Premier Cottages.
  • Improvements to the checkout process. We are focusing on boosting conversion rates, cross-device compatibility and enabling much better website integrations.

This price increase is strategic to enable us to achieve all the above, and more.”
