Hardware
For using the HotelTime System, no new hardware is needed. Access to the system is through an Internet browser. HotelTime invests in acquiring, maintaining and upgrading hardware. This solution, unlike competitive systems decreases the cost of the essential hardware investment of the accommodation facility and also decreases the costs of essential maintenance (admin).
The following configurations describe the hardware for system access (normally, for example, reception PC) and do not include a hotel server which is not needed for HotelTime.
Recommended configuration

- Internet Explorer 7.0 and higher or FireFox 2.0 and higher, standard security settings with cookies block and automatically open windows off
- Acrobat Reader 8.0 or higher
- Internet connection 2Mbit/s (except for mobile equipment), an ADSL connection is sufficient
In case the main connection fails we recommend having a backup connection of any speed, including a mobile one e.g. GPRS.
