From a travel quote to a confirmed booking | Travelgenix

Compare travel quotation software by taking the same enquiry through capture, a first proposal, a revision and the customer’s request to book. Record what your team still needs to do at each step. This shows whether a tool suits the holidays you sell and the way your advisers work.

A useful demonstration ends with evidence you can review: the source details, the current quote, the customer view and the agreed booking route. The test below is our recommended buying exercise. The traveller and trip examples are fictional. Request a Quick Quote demonstration and bring a typical enquiry with personal details removed.

Prepare one enquiry for every provider

Use two adults considering a seven-night holiday within a stated budget and departure window. Ask for two options, with different rooms or lengths of stay. Include one unresolved preference, such as whether a transfer is needed, so you can see how the adviser records a question before sending the proposal.

  • Bring the source material you normally receive, with personal information removed. This tests the information your team will actually work from.

  • List the inclusions you expect to see, such as baggage, board basis and transfers. The same list makes the comparison fair.

  • Name the colleague who would take over if the original adviser were away. Ask them to explain the quote and its next action without a separate briefing.

Check what arrives and what needs review

Quick Quote’s product page describes bringing in holiday information from a supplier website, a Travelify search, a live cruise, an enquiry or a written brief. It also shows customer proposals in the agency’s branding. Source: Quick Quote product overview.

For any shortlisted tool, compare the proposed itinerary with the source. Ask the demonstrator to correct a missing inclusion and show the revised customer view. Record where the current price and conditions come from, so a polished layout cannot hide an unanswered supplier check.

Make a revision part of the test

Change the departure date, remove one option and alter the room. Check the dates and inclusions across the whole trip, including any transfers. Then open the customer link and an earlier PDF. Agree how the adviser will explain which version applies, because a previously sent document may still be in the customer’s inbox.

Read the proposal on a phone. Find the total, travel dates, included services and route for asking a question. Ask a colleague to do this without instructions. That gives you a practical check of whether the customer can make the decision you are asking them to make.

Check the route from quote to booking

Quick Quote’s customer-view page explains a specific condition: an unchanged holiday saved from your Travelify website can take the customer to your own checkout. Changing the price, dates, room, flights or party switches the action to telling the adviser they want to book. Source: what your customer sees.

The same page explains that a displayed “prices held until” date does not reserve supplier prices. Only use a date your business can honour. In your demonstration, check the source and any changes made to the quote, then follow the resulting action so the booking route is clear.

Ask each provider to identify the customer request, payment and supplier confirmation separately. Record who rechecks availability and who handles an unsuccessful response. This keeps the customer’s interest in a proposal separate from the evidence that the holiday has been booked.

Compare costs beside the scope

The current Travelgenix pricing page includes Quick Quote within Ignite. Check the complete plan and written proposal when comparing it with a separately priced quotation tool, because the products may cover different parts of the working day. Source: current plans and pricing.

  • Record the subscription, setup charges, minimum term and user allowance confirmed in the proposal. Compare the same period for every option.

  • List the tools you will keep and any migration, training or integration work still required. This prevents an incomplete price comparison.

  • Ask what happens to quote records and customer information when you leave. Request the available export format and responsibilities in writing.

Keep a short decision record

For each requirement, record “demonstrated”, “needs configuration” or “not yet confirmed”, with the evidence and person responsible. Do not treat a future release as an available feature. If a manual step remains, decide whether your team can maintain it before accepting the proposal.

Explore Quick Quote, use the travel quote template or request a demonstration. Bring the same sample enquiry to the call so the discussion ends with an answer about your own workflow.
