Timeshare Software Blog

http://www.wisegeek.com/what-is-timeshare-software.htm is a new place that references Timeshare Software. It is well written.

At Magna Timeshare Software we manage the CRM abilities of timeshare resorts. Our software will work with marketing, sales, commissions, fundings, loan servicing, financing, maintenance fees and reservations.

Most of the software is not third party software so we have High availability to code and modifiations.

This is VERY funny. Reminds me of most things in the Microsoft world. Please note Mac and Linux users do not need this at all!!!

No viruses are spread through email, phishing attacks are sent. But hey if you are dumb enough to click on a link in email and type in the nuclear launch codes, then, there is no hope for you.

In linux, install a SMB server system or just load a Fedora or Ubuntu distribution with, spamassassin, postfix, apache, MySQL and clamavis. This configuration will do MORE than anything you pay for.

So basically this is like buy a TV dinner rather than getting food from the Organic food store.

Need Help? We can do the installation for you. Call Magna Computer Corp 407-352-2402 or email sales@magna.net

The Travel Promotion Act is tendered on the fact that "Promoting travel is critical to both America’s economy and public diplomacy." Overseas travel to the U.S. continues to be down compared to pre 9/11 figures. In contrast, global tourism has increased by 30%, that's 35 million new travelers, over the same time period.

The value of MAGNA Timeshare Software

One of the keys to success is to surround your self with the right people. With Magna Timeshare Software your resort will gain from the expertise and background of our knowledgeable staff. During any major system change over or implementation it is important to have knowledgeable experienced people guiding your business through the transition; MAGNA knows Timeshare.

When you invest in MAGNA its more like you are hiring a consultant and the software is just a tool they use to create the standard business process.

Spend money to save money……

You are spending money up front, investing in data management software.

The cost of the software pays for it self quickly.

Eliminating the need to hire more staff – automating and consolidating duties requires less man power.

· Many of MAGNA’s ASP clients don’t even have one full time IT person on staff, because it is not needed. For our clients who manage their own server most only employ a one to a few IT personnel full time.

· 700,000 mortgage transactions for one client has recently been reported. MAGNA has saved that client millions of dollars by managing collections in-house.

· Contracts can be quickly generated from MAGNA; some clients claim as fast as 3 min. Your need for many contract persons is greatly minimized when you use MAGNA.

Preventing costly and timely law suites by creating a standard business process and locking your documents from unwanted changes

· One client recently saved more than $8,000 and month by having the MAGNA system auto generate one of their pre-approved legal documents.

· One client saved close to $364,000 in marketing fees compared to previous years when they did not use MAGNA by identifying guest who were not qualified due to touring within the non-qualified time period.

· MAGNA smart docs will auto-generate the correct document based on variables you enter into the contract data entry screen. The data is then merged on server, into the correct document and printed. Your staff does not have to add or delete words or paragraphs, leaving your lawyer approved documents safe from un-wanted changes.

Why pay someone else to do what you can do with MAGNA?

· Many account receivable tasks can be done within the MAGNA system like generating ACH Drafts -. This allows the resort operator or the servicing department to process monthly mortgage payments drawn directly from the customers’ bank account.

· MAGNA created an outbound email directly from the system for one client to send an email to owners who owed money for their maintenance fee. The email stated the amount due specific to that owner with a list of options for payment including a link directly to their paypal payment option. By the end of the day $48,000 worth of maintenance fees had been collected due to this email.

· You can save an average of $10 or more per account a month if you manage your own collection of mortgage and maintenance fees through MAGNA. MAGNA will manage the accounts and print invoice and 1098 forms as well as generate many reports to show stats on all accounts.

By implementing MAGNA Timeshare Software you are creating a standard business process that creates guidelines for your staff to follow. The automation and consolidation of your data streamlines the information flow resulting in the need for less staff. One person can do the job of many with MAGNA software. Entering data only once cuts down on the chance for mistakes. Accessing your data and viewing reports with real time data is important. MAGNA gives you the freedom to view your statistical real time reports via your own MAGNA website from anywhere you get an internet connection.

Magna Timeshare Software

Here at Magna Timeshare Software we are busy making sure that our clients are billing maintenance fees and getting yearly dues back in. Good thing we have a perfect billing system that determines points, biennials and annuals and bills just correctly. I sort of feel like the Maytag repairman.

Not much to do. Important to remember that 2009 finall billings should be done concurrent with the 2010 billing as there are pender to good contract happening that need to be billed. Luck Magna clients get proper aging for time share. These aging reports are aged based on year as it is an Annual billing. Quickbooks and other recieveables programs are not appropriate for this kind of thing. Call us now for a complete renovation of
your timeshare billing program! 407-352-2402

It has recently come to my attention that folks out there think there is ratio of 1 to 1 of unix programmers (or linux) and Windows or microsoft programmers.

I have found a very apt comparison from Joel on software. In the world of reusable, modular code there is nothing like a linux/unix programmer and their code is reusable and much faster to program.

Here is the link. http://www.joelonsoftware.com/articles/Biculturalism.html

Suppose you take a Unix programmer and a Windows programmer and give them each the task of creating the same end-user application. The Unix programmer will create a command-line or text-driven core and occasionally, as an afterthought, build a GUI which drives that core. This way the main operations of the application will be available to other programmers who can invoke the program on the command line and read the results as text. The Windows programmer will tend to start with a GUI, and occasionally, as an afterthought, add a scripting language which can automate the operation of the GUI interface. This is appropriate for a culture in which 99.999% of the users are not programmers in any way, shape, or form, and have no interest in being one

So you get these religious arguments. Unix is better because you can debug into libraries. Windows is better because Aunt Marge gets some confirmation that her email was actually sent. Actually, one is not better than another, they simply have different values: in Unix making things better for other programmers is a core value and in Windows making things better for Aunt Marge is a core value.

Now you can see that one unix programmer can do much much more than a windows programmer. Unix programmers are grown in neighborhoods all over the world. Windows programmers are sent to Microsoft to chant and smoke from the great crack pipe in Bellingham. Now you can see why I included Joel's much more review that is more palatable. Open source software and linux/unix based software just work much better. That is if you want to get the job done rather than paint pretty pictures.

Ft. Meyers Beach, FL -

DiamondHead Beach resort starts the New Year with Magna Computer Timeshare Software. In December 2007 DiamondHead Beach Resort became the most recent property in South West Florida to offer vacation ownership opportunities in the past 15 years and is feeling a very positive response from vacationers. Tours and sales have been steadily increasing each month despite the down turn in the economy. Now, over a year later, resort owners decided it was time to upgrade their tracking system; Excel spread sheets had become too cumbersome to use when tours and sales volume increase each month. For example; preventing guests from touring more than once is difficult to track from spreadsheets.

General Manager, Neil Hopgood, knew the importance of quality software for tracking their vacation ownership information. After comparing Timeshare Software, Magna Computer was the chosen product. Mr. Hopgood proclaimed that “with Magna you can slice and dice data in numerous ways. You know who toured when, which marketing source they came from, who toured again, who bought what, and from which salesperson.”

SunStream Hospitality Management Company is the parent company to the property. They also own and manage 5 other properties as condo hotels in the Naples / Ft. Myers areas; Bellasera, Park Shore and Port of the Islands in Naples and GullWing and Pointe Estero on Fort Myers Beach. Sunstream management has been dedicated to attention to detail and warm hospitality with a focus on quality in appearance, atmosphere and amenities. Combined with Magna Timeshare Software and a set of core values that integrate through their properties, DiamondHead and SunStream's newest venture looks like it will be a solid investment to their portfolio.

I am currently working at Xanadu Vacation Club on Grand Bahama Island. Yes they are alive and well. Their new project director George Provenzano has years of experience at this from Daytona Beach, Aqua Sun days. Thier skilled admin staff are quite a compliment to the resort as well. Of course Magna Timeshare Software has been installed and that is a real boost to the admin staff.

Overall on the Island it is looking pretty slow right now. Island Seas, Tanio Beach and Ocean Reef are in operation and all seem to be looking for more tours.

It is kind of cold here, I packed and have worn my leather jacket. Of course I am from Clearwater Florida so anything under 70 degrees farenheit is 'kind of cold'.

After work yesterday Lise and I went to see the developers new restraunt out at the cruise ship yard, Pier 1. We were told that sharks come to feed there every day at 6pm and 8pm. But we did not see any.

Lise at Pier one restraunt.

Today after getting commissions, OPC payroll and Mortgages trained and running  we headed to West End with the hopes of a quaint caribean town. Well not really. BUT we did have AMAZING lobster and cracked conch at the Coffe on the Water. Wow and there was a pile of conch shells with about thousands of shells discarded as testament to the freshness of the conch.

FUN!
