3. Reasonable Expectations
ampliphi RMS is a decision-support software solution intended to assist hotel operators in setting optimal room rates and revenue strategies. As with all software tools of this nature, ampliphi RMS provides insights and recommendations based on the data input, configurations selected, and strategic parameters defined by the Client.
ampliphi RMS is provided “as-is” and may from time to time contain software defects or experience interruptions in performance. While ampliphi will make commercially reasonable efforts to correct known or reported defects in future releases, no guarantees are made as to response times, timelines for fixes, or uninterrupted operation.
The Client acknowledges that the effectiveness and performance of ampliphi RMS depend substantially on the quality, completeness, and timeliness of data input into the system, as well as the strategic decisions made by the Client’s revenue management team. ampliphi does not assume responsibility for the actual revenue outcomes or performance of the hotel business. All rate decisions, overrides, inventory control, and pricing strategies remain the sole responsibility of the Client.
Furthermore, ampliphi does not guarantee any specific revenue lift or business outcome and disclaims liability for any loss of business, revenue, or opportunity resulting from the use or inability to use the software. The Client agrees that software-based recommendations, while data-driven, require experienced human judgment to interpret and apply within the broader context of the hotel’s goals and market conditions.
By signing this Agreement, the Client affirms satisfaction with the ampliphi RMS product as it exists at the time of signing and understands that performance improvements depend on their internal operational alignment, user adoption, and revenue management strategy.
