Front desk & hotel operations software
The front desk is the operational heart of the hotel, and DEVELONE PMS runs it from a single screen. You move reservations with drag & drop on the tape chart, run check-in and check-out against an open cash folio, and see every room's status live. The anti-overbooking engine validates availability in real time on every action, so you never sell the same night twice no matter how many channels you have connected.
At the end of each day, the night audit runs automatically: it consolidates charges, reviews balances and leaves folios ready for the next day with no manual work. The whole team works on the same data, with role-based permissions, and every movement is logged. Fewer parallel spreadsheets, fewer typing errors, and a front desk that answers the guest in seconds, not minutes.

Frequently asked questions
How does the system prevent overbooking?
The availability engine validates every reservation against inventory in real time, whether it comes from the front desk, the direct booking engine or an OTA via the channel manager. If there's no room, it won't confirm — the same night is never sold twice.
Is the night audit manual or automated?
It's automated. At day-end it consolidates charges, reviews balances and leaves folios ready for the next day. You can review the result, but you don't have to run it by hand.
Can I control what each front desk user sees and does?
Yes. You define role-based users and permissions, so front desk staff access only what they need and every action is logged for audit.
