How Veisla is different
We compare situation by situation, not feature by feature. Here are typical moments in conference operations, and how they play out with a traditional hotel PMS, with disconnected tools — and with Veisla. Honest, including where we are not the right fit.
The rooms sit in the PMS, while meeting rooms and catering are handled in a separate event tool or a spreadsheet. Two systems that have to agree.
Booking by email, a room block in Excel and catering on a note. No one sees the whole order in one place.
One case: rooms, venues, catering, offer and invoice in the same place. Change one thing and the rest follows.
A PMS rarely has a CRM. The enquiry sits in the inbox until someone gets to it.
It lands in an email thread and competes with everything else — easy to lose.
Captured as a lead with what sales needs, the offer is built, and the follow-up is planned.
The event side is often a separate module or missing; the BEO is printed on paper.
The kitchen gets a spreadsheet or an email that may be out of date the moment it is sent.
Functions on a timeline produce a BEO straight from the event — change the programme and the BEO changes.
Stand booking is rarely part of a hotel PMS.
Handled manually with email, a stand map and invoices by hand.
Exhibitors pick and pay for their stand online, with a stand plan and confirmation.
International systems must be adapted to Norwegian requirements — often a project in itself.
Done manually, with a risk of the wrong VAT rate on rooms vs. catering.
EHF/PEPPOL, SAF-T and VAT (12% on rooms, 25% on food and drink) are built in and calculated where it happens.
Licence models with modules and add-ons that are hard to compare.
Low licence cost, but high time cost and hidden mistakes.
A base price from 4,900 kr/mo, then per room and area — you pay for what you switch on.
Honesty first
We believe in being honest about what we are and what we are not. Veisla is not right for everyone:
