Host Agency Reviews (HAR) has introduced a new web feature that helps travel advisors research and compare various software options for their businesses: Travel Agency Software Profiles.

In addition, which is located on a centralized platform, lets advisors learn about integrations and supplier compatibility, and discover which technologies are offered by different host agencies. The profiles are in addition to HAR’s existing Host Agency directory and, similarly, also include reviews from advisor users. 

According to HAR, the platform addresses several challenges faced by travel professionals, including:

- Finding technology that minimizes fraud and compliance risks

- Reducing time spent on extensive tech research

- Minimizing costs and time associated with learning multiple new technologies during trial periods

- Identifying tech solutions that integrate with programs advisors already use

The profiles also include interactive Q&A and FAQ sections.

"HAR was an invaluable resource for us as we learned the industry and has empowered so many advisors to make better decisions about who they partner with,” said David Shull, CEO and Co-Founder of Tern, a software company listed on the platform. “These new technology profiles will give that same game-changing insight to advisors as they make critical decisions on their tech stack."

"[HAR] is committed to simplifying and streamlining research for travel business owners and advisors,” added Jackie Williams, owner of NuVibe Travel and a travel advisor with over 23 years of IT experience. “Their newest list of Travel Tech Software is growing, but it already includes what's essential to help you assess if a specific tool has the necessary features you need to operate your business before wasting hours and money test-driving every new tech that comes out."

The software profiles are now available on the Host Agency Reviews website. Travel professionals are encouraged to explore the platform and contribute their own reviews. Travel agency technology suppliers can create free profiles to showcase their solutions.
